Universal Oneness is an awareness
In reflections of the truth of the being
Interweaved and interconnected in every life .
Strength shines through the vulnerabilities.
As a power in the very fragility
Touched by divine grace
Enmeshed in the senses
Fired in the cauldron of life and living
Comes a consciousness of the flow
In and around us
Beyond the illusion of separation.
Is the dance of connection.

WordPress certainly has its unique ways
Of appreciation and encouragement
To support the writers on this platform
There are stats that show up on screen.
So I am told one morning by WordPress
That I am on a three-day posting streak
At first, I was amused and a tad bit confused
For hadn’t I been posting literally every day… for so long…
But guess WordPress took its own sweet time
To catch up to my blog amongst the millions
So I too decided to play along…
Every day since then I have been publishing
A poem written afresh, simply inspired
A continuation from my previous post
In creatives emerging in thoughts.
Perhaps from a readers comment
Or better still in its contemplation.
Today as I complete a 10-day streak
I want to share these published posts
Here together in an attempt to string
These beads of thoughts together
Poetry can be the jewellery of language.
Pearls of fresh thoughts bonded into words.
Creativity strung together in a form.
Like a necklace that is adorned in appreciation.
Creativity is there within
Us all for the taking
And all it needs is a step in
In reflection and action…
It was a joy to play along
Connecting the dots,
Stringing the words,
As they came along.
Kudos to WordPress
Stats for the supportive inputs
And my amazing blogger friends
For inspirations along my way.

Here are the links of the last 10 day Post streak that I will simply call Creative Enrichments
A few observations …
These ten days I had a purpose steeped in creative enrichment. The idea was to be receptive and responsive to whatever that these posts brought forth.
And I sensed how these Inspirations came my way on its own.
A special thanks to a few WordPress writers who are involved without their own knowledge… that I want to thank here.

Are you a born poet?
Questions my friend the other day
The words linger in my thoughts for sure
And I have no quick repartee
But in silent contemplation…
Words, we all have in our thoughts
But a trigger of senses in life and living
Brings it out in its own unique way
At times it’s a trickle
And other times a shower
As it springs forth a million thoughts and streams it’s way in a flow.
Poetry emerges from life in the living
The writer ought not to hold back
For it is powered by its own purpose
To be born and shared.
All it needs is a trigger
Of emotions in the sensing
Of feeling and witnessing
Of pain and of pleasure
Of being and doings
In life and living.
The poet is born in the expressions in eloquence.
As much as a painter waltzes with his brush on canvas
And like Photographers tango through the light and dark
Poets dance through the heart with words…
Art births itself in breathing in life
A little deeper every time…
And leaves imprints in exhaling from the heart
For Art is a matter of connecting hearts.
Wouldn’t you agree?

The light shines from above in congruence
On top of the mountain
As much as on the land and trees
The light knows not the difference.
It’s purpose is to shine …
The snow capped mountains receive it
And disperse it in reflections.
And the light melts the snow
To let it flow like a river.
While it’s a different path for the tree.
The tree takes it to grow and bloom
As the light helps the flowers blossom.
Nature teaches amazing grace
To flow as much as to grow
To let go as much as to flourish
Lessons that come in the envisioning
Source is the same
It is all in the choices
In the knowing
What to do
With the source…
All is a perspective of light!
Savvy
An Expression is full of intent
Full of focus and determination
Seems far removed from submission
Let alone the letting go.
And yet in the juxtaposition…
To flow with the eloquence of grace
Exists the enigma of the elusive
The surrealism of subtlety
Of approach & demeanour
Of action and intention.
For in the wisdom of every movement
Is the potential of the now…
To capture or to connect
To be bound or to blend
All is a choice within us.

Communion: A boundless bond An artwork by Savvy Raj
And I reshare this post thanks to the lovely quote share by my dear friend Ashok Subarao who thoughfully sends inspiring quotes and pictures for me to write and paint on .
This quote share by William Blake resonated deeply with what I had written on Transpersonal Love . So I simply had to incorporate it here and what was interesting to me to note was how the image colours of the quote you sent and matched so beautifully with my painting drawn back in time .
Thank you for your kind shares once again .
Your body confidence begins with honouring the body. Find ways for self care that nourishes the temple of your abode. Treat yourself well.

The Art of Self Management.
Honour and value the body.
It is truly the only one you have.
Disrespecting the body
Creates disease from within
Managing the self is to value your potential.
Integrating the spirit and the soul
Is to align the thoughts and actions
And to realise the infinite possibilities
In balance of the heart and mind.
Care for your body. Nurture it .
And take control of your health.
Respect the body for your life is in it!

Channelling Embodiment: Artwork by Savvy Raj
On Embodiment
Immerse yourself completely in your passion
Your every expression of it is what makes it tangible
As you direct your focus to its manifestation
As you keep moving from the abstract to the concrete
As you recognize the gifts of life and connect with it.
Your engagement will and perseverance will take you through
That is what creates possibilities beyond limitations.
To realise your dream, you embody it.

Breathtaking Symmetry
Amazing poise and amazing grace
Came across this picture online
And I couldn’t take my eyes off this one
This speaks for nature at its symmetrical best
In harmonious synchrony of creation
Every curve, shape, profoundly manifests
Nature in all its awe and wonder
A testament to divinity in life and living.
Savvy
There is moment of reckoning
As you face nature’s beauty in the eye
You are arrested by emotions
Welling within you in admiration.
I see the gentleness in those eyes
I am drawn to the patterns so pleasing
I am awed by the texture and shades
Creation so majestic in all living glory.
I bow in reverence to the creator of life.
PS: If you find yourself drawn to this picture like I did , do include your immediate thoughts below whatever comes to you . Am keen to understand and learn more… I would truly appreciate your effort.Thank you .
Creativity is propelled
In every appreciation of what is…
For creativity feeds on creative thoughts.
Every life is creative in its own way.
Unique is the human mind
It takes strength of the interconnects
And creates expression of its own being.
To acknowledge and appreciate another
Is to open the channels of creativity
In accommodation as much acceptance
Of the infinite potential of possibilities
That arises in the moment.
It gives wings to create & explore more
It widens the gamut of ones horizon
But most of all it creates a balance
Between action and inaction
Between creation to pause in gratitude.
To honour the beauty that abounds
Lifting off clouds of self absorbtion.
To witness in wonder of sheer awe
And joys of nature and nurture.
A much needed act so share
That nourishes creative instincts
To create some more.
Savvy
Writing is an art. Steering and shaping thoughts to create and inspire is an exploratory journey. In learning to write, and widening the scope of creativity, the experience of reading others work, and sharing reflections of and with others is a expansive phenomena for any writer to improve their work.
Appreciation is an evolved response that is a double ended tool to instill & invoke creative flow in the self and others.
Savvy
Every artistic endeavour flourishes in exploration and discovery of the creative abundance. In understanding the nuances of the interconnects that manifest, greater perspective is revealed.
Every artist inspired or is propelled to create by many facets of artistic energies and it’s interplay.
What is truly wonderful is in the depth of creativity lies utter humility in the realms of the learnings yet unravelled.
Art speaks without words
Art emotes when words fail
Art emulates the vision of the heart.
Art flows in movement and solitude
For Art is life and living is an art..

Art : In Evolving Consciousness…
Art can have different connotations and lead to diverse reflections. To propose peace, to promote healing, to propel the power of art or provoke is a choice in the hands of the artist .
Art : Creating in the Interconnects
In the context of conscious evolution, to value the thoughts that goes into any art is to accept and respect uniqueness of the being and value the tuning into the oneness in the interconnects.
From creating art, to assimilating and amalgamating the thoughts structurally, all are uniquely diverse yet interconnected expressions of the evolutionary process.

On Black and White Artistry
Black and white may be excluded
From the family of colours.
But the tints, tones & shades
Find a family of their own….
In the enigmatic monochrome
And the elegance they exude
Borders on sheer simplicity
And dares on the utter sophistication.
In a world of colours that we may see
Using tonal contrast creates drama
Using light to capture textures.
Form and shape makes a difference.
Devoid of distractions of colours
Evocative captures, quality of lighting
Shifts focus on the ethereal elements
And accentuates the light and shadows.
Black and white photography
Flatters in a timeless way
At times it elevates, the subjects beauty
Creating an enigmatic dimension.
Presenting my artwork above
Titled : Chakra (Wheel ) above that felt right to me…
Only in monochromatic elegance
Of Black & White shades and tones.

Smile from the heart…
Help without expectations
Care without agenda
Paint with love
Sense the love!
Express yourself!
Share the love…
You do not live each day to discover what it holds for you, but to create it!
Lets start by creating some positive thoughts in and around us!

There was a time when the day started with a greeting at the light of dawn
Now it all starts with the light of mobile screen
There was a time when travellers used to chat with one another.
Now traveling is to update status and post photos.
There was a time when writing meant using a pen and paper.
Now all it mean, is clicking of buttons on a keyboard.
There was a time, when postman were eagerly awaited.
Now that is all a thing of the past.
There was a time when movies were a family affair.
Now Netflix on phone makes everyone watch on their own.
There was a time when children learned from parents.
Now it is children who teach it all to their parents.
There was a time when holidays at home meant board games & conversations
Now all the catching up is on What app and Facebook.
There was a time when life had time to catch up with one another.
Now life runs after time to catch up with time.
With the advent of times,
The sense of family is fast disappearing.
Each lives for themselves and prefers their own company.
Each spends and cares more for their gadgets than people around them.
With the apathy and indifference that abounds,
The Social recluses we are all becoming confounds.
Such is the time we live in today…
Wonder what future we have, to reckon with?
