Cosmos

Countless spheres of infinity
Rotating revolving in their preordained path.
The hows and whys still remaining a mystery
Curious minds continue to decipher

The pieces of mystery from eons unknown
Solved n unsolved puzzles of Nature.
From the stark to the  subtle
From everything to nothing or
The other way round
The search is on…
In this journey on.

The way you see it

Surfers attitude to life…

Imagine that you see a wave coming towards you
What is your first thought in your mind?
Do you see ocean waves as something you will drown in?


Or can you think like surfers do?
And think of riding the waves
For they know there is another one coming along…

Life manifests the way you chose to see it.

Truth of Meditation

Happened to read a profound quote share of Lao Tzu, from
The Tao Teh Ching by my wonderful blogger friend Eddie Two Hawks here https://wp.me/p16fFF-6Ic

Here is my contemplation based on the quote

Close the doors..
Of the chaos of thoughts
Of unnecessary judgements
in the making
Close the doors…
Consciously in the noticing
In mindfulness than mindlessness &
overthinking.
This is the truth of meditation
In all its simplicity
And in all its profoundness.

Soul to Soul trust to let go.

Sometimes it takes lifetimes
To learn and unlearn
To do and undo
To birth and unbirth
To live and relive
Moving forward in time
Through and beyond
The karmic cycles
Of many a rebirths
To find eternal bliss

Soul to soul
To trust and to let go…

On friends & friendships

Friendship…

Happens in the strangest of times
In an elevator, in a parking lot
In a bus, while walking or in flight
As a student  or as a teacher

Friends may come and go
To make you live life a little better
Think a little deeper with care
Value these gifts strewn in your life.

Friends make you see your worth
Because they want you as you.
Not an imagined version of you
So be you as you are in friendship.

Find time for a good friend
Whenever you both sense and feel it
Turn not your back on them
Know, friends are coming your way

Embody the light of friendships
Savour the joy and nurture friends Time and time again
They can be yours for lifetimes.

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?

Silence shows the way

The path of silence

Creates the space for reflection

And deep contemplation

To query in introspection

Such that you arrive back

Answered by your own self

To flow with life again

Trust the power of silence

Silence shows the way.

What makes you more you?

In this mixed bag of life’s moments

Sometimes life offers moments when you are pleasantly surprised.

It brings out the possibilities in you.

Creating joy, trust & faith.

Where you look forward to greet the next moment with hope

And other times there are raging storms

Where you are numbed down beyond compare

Where you are unsure of your next move

Trust time to free your mind of doubts

For there is always a reason why

Take every learning as a lesson for life

And know you will learn to weather the storm

Every storm, leaves you stronger than before.

For it leaves a more resilient you…

More capable, more confident more conscious

For you begin to acknowledge your own potential.

As you dare to meet the moments, you begin to meet the potential in you

Every moment makes you more you.

Life experiences can move us as it makes us. Every one has some moments that makes us smile and some that makes us stop and rethink… And in time we realise it was all necessary to make us realise our self.

Do you agree?

Can you remember one moment that made you smile from the heart?

Can you also think of moments, that made you question to understand life?

Did you meet your own strengths along the way?

Do you feel you have evolved along the way?

Heal as you write

Poetry is a brilliant trickster
As much a true friend
For it masks the truth cleverly in words
As much as it heals away in the expressions.


In the letting go of  dense emotions
Is the channeling towards balance
To the lightness of being
Where there is space created
In between thoughts and actions
For more cathartic connections.

Poetry revives the spirit of the soul
Through soulful words that flow
Out of nowhere explicable
For it has a purpose of its own
In trust know, that it finds itself
The path its meant to be.

Be it poetry or prose, fiction or non fiction, words can be the gamechanger.

How many of you writers agree?

Spirit Ablaze…

Sky above, earth below, and fire within,
As I stand here,
Under the canopy of twinkling stars in the sky,
Sensing the nourishing earth under my feet,
And the fire ablaze, in the spirit of my soul.

The fire within, I nurture ,
As passion that fuels, my soul
A purpose that ignites, and a will to succeed,
A heart that beats, a dream to be freed.

Watching the sky above, clouds floating by,
Like a bird soaring I choose to fly,
And I wonder of infinite possibilities,
Until the setting sun, draws the moon at night.

I feel the fertile ground
Sense the abundance of nature.
A garden of life.
In every breathing life, is a universe within,
Bountiful beauty, to inspire dreams.

Sky above, earth below and fire within,
A journey of life, with a prayer in hope
To meet the mornings, awaiting the purpose of life.
With the spirit ablaze in my beating heart.

Power of a Seed

The seed looked up

At the mighty tree in awe

Wondering how it will grow to thrive

And how it will survive in time.

The tree rustled its leaves

In the gentle breeze

Sharing the tender touch

Of the nurturing wind

As if to remind the little seed…

Every mighty tree around

Was once a tiny seed

Blowing in the very same wind

That grew through the seasons

Weathering life’s storms

Learning how to bend and not break

So that it could grow one day

To its fullest potential

Testimony to the power of a planted seed.

Every tree is rooted with a message

Never underestimate the power within

Keep the faith and trust yourself!

The body never lies

Movements matter
For the body never lies
Whether you move
with your thoughts,
words or body.
 
It conveys the truth of you
In more ways than you know
Movements are unique to us
For they are imprints of life

The body never lies they say
Our movements convey the truth of our soul.
As words flow…
Writing reveals much about the writer
In the words said and unsaid
In the way the writer begins
& ends
In the choice of words itself…

But all said and done all writing, all creative arts can be cathartic experiences. The healing happens in the expression, in the letting go…

I write at leisure to relax and enjoy writing. It heals me. Perhaps if I am pressured to write I may not be feeling this way.

What are your thoughts on writing?

How has your writing helped you?

Be to Become

Be all that you can

To become all that you want

Becoming what you want to be

Is a journey in time

Of highs and lows

To become is to envision

To intend consistently

The very same vision day in and out

To persevere time and time again

Without losing sight of your intent

To be passionate about what you are

To have patience in waiting

As you inch closer and closer

To become what you want to be.

And trust, what you are meant to be

Will always find a way!

Irony of Advice

Stay calm
Don’t lose cool
Have no expectations
Let go
Move on

Easy to advise
Difficult to practice 
Telling truth as it is
Such is the irony of advice.
