I AM GRATEFUL
For this moment of peace
In this now I am present
To know it’s preciousness.
And grateful in soulful awareness
That the Universe in and around
Is taking care of everything else 🙏

On Prayer
A prayer is a conscious thought
A prayer is also a connectedness through the spirit
A prayer is a journey beyond the mere physical and emotional realms
A prayer is a reminder of our source to access whenever, wherever …
A prayer is a shift in perspectives
A prayer is a deeper look into the self
A prayer is a reflection in positivity.
A prayer is an innate tool towards subtlety
A prayer is a step towards conscious awareness
A prayer is a bridge of acknowledgement
A prayer is a bow of acceptance
A prayer is a trustful disposition
A prayer is a healing calmth in despair and devastation
A prayer is a joyous amalgamation to the divine within
A prayer is a call out in troubled times
A prayer is within reach and beckoning
A prayer is a helping hand from within…
A prayer is union of thoughts words and deeds
A prayer is a foray into tenderness
A prayer is a poise of Grace
A prayer is an expansion of the kindness of the spirit
A prayer is the strength of the indomitable will
A prayer is an innate form of expression
A prayer is a poise in humility
A prayer is much more beyond the folded hands bowing
A prayer is a Soul conversation
A prayer is a meditation in action…
A prayer is a realisation of the stillness of your being
A prayer is a journey within the breath of life…
A prayer is a power of moving hearts
A prayer is unity in the diversity
A prayer is a grounding in rootedness
A prayer is a realisation of equanimity
A prayer is a silence beyond the verses
A prayer is a song from the heart
A prayer is a soulful dance in tandem with divinity
A prayer is a thanksgiving in gratitude!

Conscious Awareness
Sanskrit Sloka
यत्रैव यत्रैव मनो मदीयं
तत्रैव तत्रैव तव स्वरूपम्।
यत्रैव यत्रैव शिरो मदीयं
तत्रैव तत्रैव पदद्वयं ते॥
yatraiva yatraiva mano madīyaṃ
tatraiva tatraiva tava svarūpam।
yatraiva yatraiva śiro madīyaṃ
tatraiva tatraiva padadvayaṃ te॥
Wherever is my mind, I find your real form. Wherever is my head, there reign your holy feet.
A few musings..
When you arrive at being able to see
The true essence of nature
In alignment with the Source coder
When wherever the mind wanders
Consciousness follows…
There is awakening in realisation.
Savvy
Ease into the moment
Take that well deserved break
There is really nothing at stake
Take a moment to just pause and not lead
To breathe in ease ,and not rush without heed
Have a seat … relax and chill
Watch the world go by savouring this moment now at your will
You rushed enough, to more than keep up with time
Time is eternal … is wisdom sublime
Sense the moment that is the Now.
Future will be fine ,every moment just care to love
It as it is, knowing that it is this present
That matters in this very moment …:))

Awakening the self
When you arrive at being comfortable
At ease no matter the seeking and the knowing
At peace no matter the circumstances
In equanimity in the wisdom of the interconnects
You are awakening yourself…
To the profoundness of you.
In the subtlety of consciousness
Resides the truth of it all.

One positive thought.
It takes but one positive thought when given a chance to survive and thrive to overpower an entire army of negative thoughts.
Robert H. Schuller
One positive thought
The power of positive
Adds life to the years
Firms up the faith
Heals with hope
Brings trust in time
Makes us believe again.
So much to live for
Than simply languish.
Such is the power of positive thinking…
Steer your life for the better
Think a positive thought
Well here is mine
I think today is a beautiful day
Care to share a positive thought
in this now?

Thoughts & us
We are what our thoughts are.
God came.
Ask me whatever you want.
Ten people asked their desires
First one
Countless money & a big business to run
2nd one
The most powerful position in the world
3rd one
I need fame & fortune like a topmost world famous actor
4th
I have to become the most beautiful person that the whole world becomes mad after me
Like this each of the nine people asked their desires which God gave them immediately.
The tenth person asked
I want the most contented , peaceful & blissful stage which a man can achieve.
The rest of the 9 looked at him laughing.
Peace of mind, contented heart.
For that only we asked whatever we wanted . When we get whatever we wanted peace & contentment will follow.
God looked at them and said I’ve given whatever you all wanted. Now you all can go.
The He turned towards the tenth person and said,
‘you wait here. I need to talk to you. I’ll come after some time. ‘ He left.
Now the rest of the 9 hesitated & stayed back so anxious to know what God is going to give him.
In spite of getting whatever they wanted they became jealous over the man who has not got anything till then.
As time passed, their anxiety grew & they forgot to enjoy what they have got. There went their peace & happiness.
The tenth man waited patiently. He became so peaceful & content that God is coming to talk with him.
Who are we.
The tenth person or
the rest .
Decide.
Our thoughts decide who we are.
Translation from a Tamil social media share by my mother Anjana.
Have shared my artwork here for I felt it was apt for the story above, in depicting the 10th man who is at bliss and peace in the merging of thoughts in divine consciousness.
Meet life.
Meet life in the eye
See the light it shows
Meet life in this now
Understand there is always a reason why
And then trust enough
To meet it with enthusiasm to live
So you can meet the miracles in this now.

Be open to receive
Be open to receive.
Sharing a Tamil story translation by my mother Anjana.
I found this piece written by her today morning and shared as I felt many times we are ourselves in the way of our blessings. There is so much abundance, we are yet not ready to hear, take, care to see, that we miss partaking the joy of having them, often because our own ignorance, ego or lack of awareness comes in the way. All the abundance mean nothing if we are not ready to receive it.
Let’s be open ready to receive…
It was raining heavily. Grand mother was sitting in the verandah and her little granddaughter was playing nearby… So the grandmother told her granddaughter so much water is going waste,so keep a big vessel to fill clean water.
The girl who was playing refused to listen. So the grandmother noticed it and said sternly, Is just keeping the big vessel in the rain a big job? Go and keep it in the open. Grandma ordered. The girl went with half mind.
After some time when it stopped raining, Grandma got up to happily bring the vessel full of water.
She was shocked to see ,not a drop of water was collected.
The girl has kept the vessel upside down , just as it was kept inside!
Of course there was plenty of rain, but the vessel was not ready to collect a single drop.
Same like the Universe is filled with Divine blessings. But our hearts are not open to receive it. If we are ready with open heart the Cosmic Abundance will be in harmony with us.

Learnings from a tree
Today is a new day…
Like a flowering tree blooming everyday, with hopeful buds
Make a promise to yourself to live and greet each day with enthusiasm.
Yesterday is gone by and today is a new day…
Let not your past
Come in the way
Of all that you are
Leave yesterday
And live today.
For your present
Is what matters
The past is lived
And this now
Is yours to live.

Sharing an interesting read that came my way today… Life is to thrive
One day a farmer’s donkey fell into a well. The animal cried loudly for hours, while the farmer tried to find something to do to get him out.
Finally, the farmer decided that the donkey was old and the well was already dry and needed to be covered anyway; that it really wasn’t worth pulling the donkey out of the well..
He invited all his neighbors to come help him. They each grabbed a shovel and began to throw dirt into the well.
The donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly loud. Then, to everyone’s surprise, he quieted down after a few shovelfuls of dirt.
The farmer finally looked down into the well and was amazed at what he saw… with each shovelful of dirt, the donkey was doing something incredible: It was shaking off the dirt and stepping on top of the dirt.
Very soon everyone saw surprised how the donkey reached the mouth of the well, went over the edge and trotted out…
Life is going to throw dirt at you, all kinds of dirt… the trick to getting out of the hole is to shake it off and use it to step up. Each of our problems is a step up. We can get out of the deepest holes if we don’t give up…
Use the land they throw you to get ahead!!!
Remember the 5 rules to be happy:
- Free your heart from hate.
- Free your Mind of distractions.
- Simplify your life.
- Give more and expect less.
- Love more and… shake the dirt, because in this life you have to be a solution, not the problem.
