What is Spiritual Growth to me?

Someone asked me what spiritual growth means to me …

Here is what I spoke about in a nutshell

Harmony in mind body & spirit Integration in Self awareness
Developing greater understanding & Empathy
Humility & Kindness
Humanity & Compassion.


Living in the lightness of being
Acknowledging Grace in Gratitude
Sensing true freedom to be…for the self and others.
To flow with life in serenity. Sensing the joy in the ordinary.

It’s about acknowledging & sensing the space in around me

It’s about giving in the receiving and receiving in the giving

Witnessing the evolving patterns and freeing the self from limitations of the mind.

Evolving in the learnings, valuing the connection built in time.
A mindful & heartful practice in conscious awareness.
Letting go of unnecessary things
Understanding the value
Of the gift of life
Making life meaningful.
Living life lovingly!

And in knowing it’s so much more….

Please feel free to add what spiritual growth means to you?

What is travel to you?

To travel
Can be about discovery
Of the old in the new places
Leading you to pathways
That takes you back to your self

To  travel
Can be a sensing of serendipity.
A feeling of  dejavue
A memorable journey
Unexpectedly unto yourself.

To travel
Can be to witness
The stark reality of life
Perhaps a jolt of reality
Of places and people
As they are in comparison to what was once imagination.

To travel
Can be to learn and unlearn
To connect us to this now
With the truths of things
In places we visit
Know and unknown.

Keep traveling  far and near to find yourself a little more every time.

On Positive Intentions

Wellbeing is an art in itself and it begins with a positive intention.

Interconnects


We live in a world where we are interconnected at the intersections .

A world piecing things together rapidly charging forward
A world where technology triumphs in everything we do.

A world where  there is greater  acceptance of  possibilities
Where potential is being explored in associations
A world where art and science are at interlinked at the crossroads
Meeting like no tommorow
Where art is created by logic and calculations
Of a programmed artifical intelligence
Where science is more and more accepting of the metaphysical
Where science is turning to seek answers in spirituality
And Spirituality is discussed scientifically
But then in the same breath
Is the emergence of the mystics & the art of Spirituality.

Everything links to one another

Leading the truths of being

All is in the strength of the interconnects

What Is Art?

What is art?

But a transcendence

In sublime understandings

Invoking inspiration

Awakening aspiration

Collaborating in creation

Sometimes seeking

Sometimes speaking

At times questioning

At times challenging

Emoting provoking

Allowing thinking

In the sensing more

Acknowledging critiquing

Receving in the giving

Giving in the receving

Ever flowing…

To you my readers

Every day I write
It’s been so for more than six years now
I don’t plan on what to write
I just  put the words as they  come
But somehow from somewhere
From deep within they flow
Through me…
And then one look  at what I wrote
I get the title immediately
Many times  the title comes first
And I begin to write

And then I just happen to share with  you all my readers
Some of you engage with me all most daily

And I am so full of Gratitude for your presence here.


Thankful for your  likes and comments
You readers  really make my day
Especially when you leave a kind & thoughtful word.
It’s truly special  to see an old reader drop by chance and connect again
It’s a  wonderful feeling…
When at the fag end of the day
I sit to read your thoughts
It makes me motivated to want to write some more.

Words are all I have
To share with you
I hope to share the best of them & I hope to read and learn from yours…
And hope to stay connected
With you  in times to come
For I believe to share is to learn some more…

Thank you for the love you share here.

On Equanimity

The wisdom born of balance…

Being able to see the true essence

Of living life in the middlepath

Knowing the power of being gentle

Just as much as of toughness

In every circumstance.


Discerning when to be what

And with whom is the key


To successful life management.

Developing the discipline

In mind body & spirit

Calls for equanimity of not tilting

To the extremes of behavior

In thoughts words deeds.

What is your take on equanimity?

On Strength of a Woman

Nowadays, I am finding there are lot of films produced on women empowerment in different languages. Perhaps this is what the public wants to watch. What is interesting to note is how well it resonates with our times.

I enjoy watching films that make you think and feel as much as I enjoy happy fun films

I just finished watching a new Hindi movie called Sukhee. It’s about a daring woman (Shilpa Shetty) who elopes and gets married to a man of her choice in her college days. In time she becomes a homemaker. But her husband over the years stops valuing her. She toils everyday at home but her daughter stops needing her. Her only desire is to go meet her friends and attend her school reunion after 20 years. But her husband does not want her to go.

Nevertheless she leaves them and goes to meet her school friends. She realises how much she has missed her old life and wants to stay back some more… But her husband gives her an ultimatum to come back now or never come back…

What decision she takes forms the rest of the story…

On Strength of Empowerment

We talk of strength and there are many strengths in the challenges
Of Courage
Of Resilience
Of Tolerance
Of Patience

Speaking of women, I want you to answer this following question.

Who is a strong empowered woman?
The one who has the courage to get up and leave when she knows she is simply being used but not wanted?
Or the one who stays and dares to change the equation?

I look forward to your answers

A matter of approach

Creativity: A matter of approach.

What makes a job well done ?
What makes excellence a standard?
What makes one stand out a cut above the rest ?
What is aesthetics after all?
What differentiates the good better and the best?


All is a matter of approach in every field of life. A shift in the perspectives brings home the amazing solutions. An approach that is creatively expansive than confounding, opens a box of possibilities .

We are all equipped to reach out into our own creative potential by just empowering ourselves with techniques of approaching a situation at hand.


Every one of us is endowed with the potential to develop our artistic abilities and approach with a creative eye.

It’s a matter of putting the principles into practise and taking that giant leap of faith.

What is your attitude & approach to life today?

What are you going to create for yourself in this now?

Words of our Soul

Our words  breathe the truth of our souls
The way we feel deep within
Somehow find a way to breathe in and out
To find their own sense of balance

The words we speak, the words we think and the words we write. We have a mind, body, spirit connect with our words.
In fact our words can be both…
The energy of our emotions
Raining relentlessly
And also the signature of our souls!

With abandon & faith.

You will sense the truth of being…

Truths of Being

Living life truths

As the threads of time ties us
In a tapestry of weaves
We make our choices
We chance upon our paths
Lighting it up, in our own unique ways…

Painting our dawns with hope
And the dusks with dreams
Brushing light of the rays & beams…
Cherishing our moments in this now
Colouring our dreams with intentions that matter
Living loving
Giving receiving
We shape our lives…
Acknowledging our thoughts
Accepting our errors of judgements
We all evolve in the tapestry of time

Embracing ourselves in self respect
Embodying our faith in trust
Unfurling our passions in time
Unveiling our purpose on earth
Until we find our truths of being.

Celebrate You

The day you realize
Your potential
You begin to explore possibilities
And you even make
The impossible possible

Care to ask yourself…
Are you safeguarding your boundaries
Or being too accepting
That you tolerate more than you truly should.
What are you hoping for?
Is it approval and validation
Are you waiting for another
To love you?
Perhaps you need to celebrate
Who you are!

Remember you are truly enough for you!
