“A collection of expansive verse celebrating the beauty of the natural world, elemental cycles, and the deep, interconnected threads of the human journey.”
It is the nature of rain To wash away the dust Until it’s clean and green. Yet, too much rain Floods and destroys. Such is the truth of nature.
Each element of nature Is balanced with the other. The dry lands help sustain the wetlands… One supports another To sustain and thrive. Such is the truth of nature.
Desert
Desert sand blows in the wind… Winds carry the dust Across the world, Over lands and water, Finding new settlements.
The truth of nature Is the interconnections. The kind that keeps us alive, The kind we may not realize, The kind we need to emulate In this now and for our future, To survive and thrive.
Just think…
If nature survives through quiet reciprocity, perhaps our own survival depends on learning to receive what is given, and giving what is needed.
Todays freeverses are inspirations that arrived from contemplations with Anjana, my dear mother.
The truth of love is acceptance… The kind that is unconditional. It asks not another To change and fit a mold, Nor expects you to compromise your values.
The truth of love is realization Of your heart’s expansion, And seeing the possibilities Amidst life’s myriad challenges.
The truth of love is freedom From control and suppression. True love breathes free And lives life lovingly.
In reflection… Ultimately, love is not a destination or a demand; it is a quiet, daily momentum. It is the conscious choice to move through a complex world and simply live life lovingly.
Love is not a bond that ties us down, but an expansion that sets us free…
If love is an expansion rather than a bond, what is one unspoken demand you can release today to let your relationships breathe freer?
The inspiration for these verses in flow arrived in the moment I started commenting on this interesting poem and its take on love.
You and I May never meet, But our thoughts Interweave through words.
We may have unique names, We may have different views, Yet our journey is entwined In the many paths home.
In every acknowledgment Of this great truth Of the interconnects We align with ourselves.
Along our unique way, The choice is ours To find ourselves In one another…
Living life lovingly.

A note in gratitude for beautiful response in a comment on Interwoven from a dear reader, that sparked my third poem in this series on the very essence of Oneness.
My first poem Interwoven spoke of the universal source (nature, sun, ocean).
The second Endless Beginnings spoke of the internal journey (storms, dust settling).
With this third poem, Oneness, I choose to honor the bridge between people who may have never met face to face, yet are sensing moments of oneness simply entwined through words & mutual recognition.
Thank you for reading and responding with such heartfulness… Across time and distances whenever we pause to acknowledge these interconnections, we not only find ourselves, but also send forth a ripple in the oneness.
The Sun emits rays, And it feels they are sent to Earth, But they remain part of the source.
A drop of the ocean Becomes rain, And merges back Into the ocean.
All shapes and forms Multiply and diminish, As part of the same source.
Every energy is as it is… Emerging and merging, In time and patience.
You and I are not different… We are part Of the same source.
All that is, Is one with the source.
In knowing that you and I Are part of this source, We enact the purpose Of our being in faith & trust…
Emerging and merging, Living life lovingly.

“If we are all beautifully interwoven with the same cosmic source, how can we step out into the world today and consciously choose to live life lovingly?
From the standpoint of physics, a ripple doesn’t actually move the water forward, it moves the energy through the water…
Likewise our creative and spiritual practices are simply conductors for channeling deeper universal energy.
This perspective shift acknowledges that timing and alignment are natural laws and not coincidences thereby discards the unnecessary anxieties in trying to force outcomes…
After all we are both the drop of water and the ocean itself.
So if every thought word and deed creates ripples in the vast ocean of your life, what is the nature of the wave you are setting in motion right now?
We are binded in fears, insecurity, and the illusions of separation
We are bound by dependence, both of heartfelt emotions and in the quest of our own ego for personal identity.
And we are also bound by our own mind, its so-called intellect, and the illusions that see the self as separate from others.
To understand the truth of oneness…
Life is experienced and with every challenge along the way we peel the layers of our rigid self, our ignorance, piercing these very illusions & misunderstandings to open us to the abundance of our infinite possibilities.
And so it goes until we realise life & the truth of oneness in all its profoundness of simplicity.
In raising awareness from the root to the tip, the blockages are opened and pure waves of energy reach the floodgates of consciousness only to spring forth the shower of divine bliss & abundance.
PS
Growing up, the regular recitation of ancient scriptures filled my home, sparking a lifelong curiosity to understand more.
This is my humble perspective in the exploration of the’ Lila’ of the vast ocean of ‘Lalitha Sahasranamam and its depths of transformative power’
Infinite is the power of this master science, its recitation invoking the energy of sounds, and its truths of recalibration and resetting life in sincere faith.
In time as a somatic &Reiki practitioner I sensed a correlation.
Reiki translates as freeflow universal life force energy that is channeled in and through this truth of oneness It flows where needed.
Drawing upon the symbolic wisdom in the interconnects of thoughts and action of light & sound, we can unravel the truths of oneness.
Meditative listening, chanting these energetic frequencies with the correct intonations can change and transform our path, shifting our mode from survival to restorative clarity.
Have you ever had a moment where time seemed to slow down, and a simple walk transformed into a profound conversation with the universe?
In this episode, let me take you on a quiet, late-night walk along the banks of the River Seine in Paris. Under the gentle glow of a dancing crescent moon, I share my poem in free-verses Fleeting Memoirs, and dive into a soulful reflection on the beautiful contrasts of existence.
Tune in and lets explore:
The delicate “tango of light and dark” in our daily lives.
Finding a sense of peace in our own magnificence and insignificance…
How to slow down, build a deeper internal awareness, and honor the fleeting moments that shape our journey.
Listen now to step away from the chatter, find your center, and learn to live life lovingly.
