Life may challenge us all every once in a while, it is good as it leaves some wisdom behind …

The challenge is to float when you feel you will drown
The wisdom is to sense a challenge coming
The challenge is to tide through the tough times
And wisdom is knowing this too shall pass
The challenge is to choose between the options at hand
The wisdom to know  the difference
The challenge is to seek new ways of  overcoming
The wisdom is to know there is always a  solution
The challenge is bring balance
The wisdom to sense the balance
The challenge seeks to fulfill itself
The wisdom seeks nothing for itself
The challenge pushes forth seeking new horizons
The wisdom stills itself in the knowing
The challenge searches the heaven and the earth
The wisdom delves deep within
The challenge draws a blank line
The wisdom draws a full circle
The challenge questions the issue at hand
The wisdom answers the question .
The challenge  seeks to resolve for peace
The wisdom is in the path of peace
The challenge  competes  to win the war
The wisdom  collaborates and creates peace.
The  challenge is a test of the spirit
The wisdom is a way of the soul
The challenge seeks new way of seeing
The wisdom knows the way of being.
The challenge  is keeping the spirit alive
The wisdom is knowing it is not the end
The challenge seeks
The wisdom knows
In seeking there arises the knowing
There is no one without the other.

Circles of Compassion

A Painting by Savvy Raj Titled: Transcendence http://www.savvyraj.com

Compassion is a  gentle inclusive yet so very powered by its infinite expansiveness. Surrounding the self with compassion circles is a duty to your own soul rather than a selfish act. In a world that is apparently getting overly self-obsessed, conscious compassionate thoughts within will become gradually entrenched in the core structure of the being and what is powered from a strong core radiates outwards with the magnitude of faith and strength … therein lies the success of steering towards peace and humanity through positively uplifting thoughts.

  Every compassionate thought that is then spread out will have the strength of its own circles of trust in the boundless infinity of love. Our world needs this in every moment more than we can even imagine. Harness the energies of  Compassion that hugs, heals and helps humanise humans.

images

We are equipped by nature to give and share more than what we perceive we have, just like the abundance of nature our being is infinite in its potential.And in every compassionate share,  there is greater regeneration and replenishment. With a deeper integration of compassionate reflections there occurs a transcendence towards universal empathy.

Connect yourself in this chain of compassionate circles and care to reach out from your core outward. .Trust enough to let go care to remember that we are all dancing beings in an exquisite circle of love and light beyond matter. All is well in the lightness of being. Let the connectedness in compassion dance from and through you !

Shine on …

Build  bridges not walls !

From the architect of time, the source creator  came a space of  nothingness (akash)from space came matter  (energy) from matter came  movement (wind, air) from movement came fluidity (flow, water) from fluidity came existence from existence emanated the spirit of life (the breath of life, fire passion).

The elements  existence are a guide in an acknowledgement of interdependence. An awareness of the interconnections is an acceptance  that everything exists  in the subtlety of balance .  The spirit of life and living is the bridge to our calling and purpose of being  and the journey to the  being.   The path is and will be ours and yet not just ours.

 Every move in time  is interlinked in the bridge of time that we were, are and will be on. The bridge of time is in eternal cycle of motion. All matter constitutes one or more of  the elements  in different proportions . While the mind of the matter  perceives  it in thoughts , the heart of the matter senses … The  mindful thoughts and heartfelt  feeling  are both  real and unreal  all at the same time. The consciousness is the bridge of awareness between the  extrinsic and the intrinsic  between the learning  and the knowing . And in this understanding  is the realization  whole and complete of all as it is .

In Loving Gratitude

A spread of Cheer!

Today and every day, in just this moment …

Let me start the day by counting my blessings instead of time

Let me remember to send out at least one small gesture of kindness

Let me remember to express my appreciation of someone’s skill

Let me respect the power within to envision a larger good

Let me seek thoughts that bring peace and contentment

Let me love with hope and trust the knowing

Let me give a hand in lifting another up

Let me remember to truly give a listening to an elder in my life

Let me realize the joy of sharing positivity around me with my words

Let me stretch my thoughts to being accepting of another’s vision

Let me sense the beauty of this world I live in and around me

Let me be grateful to the knowledge I have and will receive

Let me acknowledge with humility the supreme that manifests creatively

Let me revel in the wonder of innocence and bow in reverence of divine energy

Let me see the divine in you enough to fathom because You are… I am!

Let me remember to end the day by counting my blessings instead of sheep:)

Another day dawns!

Magnificent Sun!

Across the distant horizon resplendent in all its radiant hues sun shines on its blessings and bejewels the sky. The leaves unfurl themselves a little bit more ….with strength and energy and basking with confidence in its radiance. Knowing the biting cold of the night has moved away, they glide lovingly content in this moment that glows with warmth!
The buds awaken themselves and bloom willingly only to reveal their astoundingly tender beauty. And soulfully they turn seeking the brilliance of the magnificent sun …catch them dancing the dance of beauty and grace that’s shimmering in its rays…Maybe they know well the time they have with the sun is precious and know they must live it with all their might ….and behold it’s a breath-taking sight !
Who better to seek,to understand the preciousness of time …. to understand the wisdom of time, than from a tender flower a midst its unabashed beauty…
Time is precious !Fill your day with purpose! Live the moments ….lovingly !

Bloom and be blessed !

Dance of the Heaven and the Earth !

Watch the heavenly dance
the rhythmic connects ….
of the twirling clouds, in the swirling sky
and the opal blue oceans whirling waves .
A sight to behold !

Across the horizon
the two shall merge
as one, moving in the flow
of a divine connection
in a dance of the heaven and the earth ….:)

Walk the path …

My reflections on this beautiful picture….
 
 Sun kissed leaves shine like gold

Majestic tall trees lined with wisdom untold
A winding woody path so green
emerges in between …

It beckons you onto a journey to the unknown
Yet with the radiant light of the sun leading you on
You know for sure you will never lose your way
Basking in the beautiful morning sun’s ray ….

Walk the path … befriend nature and dare
To accept the experiences, it’s ready to share
Live this moment, do not leave it for another day
awaiting when the sun shall shine this glorious way …

Cos Life is so much like this unknown path my friend
Make the journey as the sun shines around the bend
Trust yourself to be all you can be
And perhaps, its awaiting you … that which you wish to see.

The Sea Knows….

The wisdom in the Synergy of Energy

The clear azure and turquoise sea gives this moment a sense of calm

to blend in with the beautiful view and transform.

The sand on the beach implores you to walk slow ….

to watch the wave as the cool winds blow.

To move with care, sensing the strength at bay

To see the precious gifts nature has strewn across your way…

In the sheer vastness of the sea , there is an expansive feeling

freeing us from thoughts that are limiting…

In its magnitude of balance is the value of equanimity,

in its raging fervour is a lesson to never underestimate its conformity

As in its very languor of liquidity

is the strength of solidity.

The Sea stays in place knowing to play the game of tides well.

Yielding to the crests , flexing in the troughs and delve

Into its mysterious depths to bring forth natures bounties from within.

Sea shares with every wave a new hope to begin.

Just as the sand shifts its patterns with every wave from the sea

life too bestows an opportunity in every change we see

Going beyond its complacent cool blue exterior… let us value the giving

and care enough to sustain its every drop knowing , in it is a universe that is thriving …

As the sea reflects the sky above there is a lesson in clarity and humility

That conformity and acceptance is not a weakness, but the amazing grace of Almighty …

Watch the horizon expand there is so much to know and do

The choice is in your hand ….

To dream lazing along the shores

To dance and surf a midst the waves or …

To dare to dive right in with the trust of a wisdom untold ….:)

The Lofty Mountain

The Learning in the Grounding

Standing majestically tall rooted to the ground are the lofty mountains…

Climbing uphill is a task no doubt, as it beckons to ascend

It tempts with arresting views from its mysterious mount

Albeit with many harsh crags , spiky edges the and ablating glaciers to surmount

The tenacious spirit of the mountain imparts lessons for a lifetime

In the journey is gleaned wisdom sublime…

What one sees from the top of the mountain is different from way down the valley .

A different perspective every view does carry

That in every different point of viewing

there shines a light on a different way of learning …

A way to live!

The Sky the Sea and the earth are always a reminder

to live every moment in awe and wonder

Life is precious and beautiful … allow it to hold you in its sway

to smell the flowers along the way !

Care enough

To accept the crest and the troughs ….

Live and let live, learning from the sky and the sand and the sea in harmony

Appreciating with gratitude the synergy in their trilogy 🙂

A kind of hush ….

There is a kind of hush …..

up in the mystical mountains nestled in the green lush ..

A Fairy tale like feeling in this enticing place somewhere ….

An idyllic haven of blues and greens in the middle of nowhere

Speaks softly to that place in the heart that I treasure

It is abound with bliss and bounties of nature

Crystal clear waters reflecting the canopy of green

The falling leaves witness to this mystical scene

Glowing in the gilded light from above

Could only come from a place of true love

enveloped in a kind of magic that fills the air

Captivating and conjuring, beauty beyond compare

A view like this and I just had to share…

Clarity In The Reflections

Stillness reflects …the vividity of the moment
Silence reflects …the value of sound !


In reflection is a connection underlying

With the reflected and the reflecting …


So similar yet distinctive in the difference they imply …
All under the same infinite sky ….!

The lady on the tree

In that center of placid calm stands an angel of hope and resilience

She has birds of hope surrounding her haloed presence….

Be like the lady on the tree

In the stillness of the water..sensing your spirit feel so free

Climb the tree in the serenity of the calm and unwind

Bring composure to the cursory mind

Move away from the mundane

And feel more humane.

See the birds dancing by your side

singing their sweet song of hope that will always reside !

Tread gently and softly move

In your journey as you find your groove

Climb that tree and rest awhile

Witness the water silently settle…

Renew your spirit and discover your mettle

Delve in the solitude seeking the clarity in the calmth unbound

As in still waters… runs deep, the wisdom profound !

Edge of a New Dawn !

Edge of a New Dawn !

Sitting on the Edge awaiting a new dawn

Full of hope and promise of all things new , the past by gone ….

Awaiting to witness hope regained in every heart

As the sun arises across the horizon for a brand new day to start !!

Endless possibilities and limitless potential to explore ..

Dance to it all is what the heart will implore.

Now is the time to dare and do …

all the things you always wanted to .

Know all is truly well and on the way

Towards the joy and cheer that’s sure to hold you in sway

Then delve into this moment renewed in faith and confidence

As life after all gives to all from Eternal Providence!!!

A handful of earth……

A handful of earth......

 

We are but a handful of Earth …let go the unwanted ego

Shed that mask of greatness and let the love freely flow

In every act of forgiveness in this very moment

Know you are freeing yourself more, than another with this movement

Reality is in this moment alone

Allow that past to move on and with the future unknown….

The challenge is in this moment that presents an opportunity

to fill it with hope and positivity…

Sense through the sifting sands of time ,watch it flow free on its course

Simply be present in this moment , never be overwhelmed or too morose

Life will take care of you as it always has, since you were born

Don’t you worry or be forlorn!

In every new day that dawns,and a new moment itself presents

Refill your heart with hope and be alive to the magic that it actually represents !
