True learning happens when we realize we are the teacher and we are the student.
And life teaches the greatest lessons without anyone uttering a word or at times in just the sheer presence of a good soul.
Likewise, as we live from our heart and open ourselves to realization and acceptance of new possibilities… true living happens!

Art is a way of life. And when life imitates art or art reflects life there is evolution.
Trees are teaching…witness.
Survival is a matter of sustainability
And if trees can talk (as it is gradually being understood only now )…they would teach us about the interlinked communication and the give and take that is going on in more ways than one between them.
The art of life and living has much to do with reciprocal arrangement as well as collaboration beyond simply competing to survive kind of Darwinism.
One of the greatest learning from ecological observation is that even apparently different forms of plant lifes can be interconnected and interdependent to survive and sustain life.
From not only helping one another through sharing nutrients there is much proof where plants are connected at the roots and helping the boost of immune systems to defend from diseases through an invisible network of pathways.
After all it’s like… while you are bestowed with life..
Nurture nourish and evolve together.
You might as well enjoy the life.
And live creatively enriched!👍🙏🙂

There was a question asked to Ramana Maharishi
Question: What is the best way to treat others?
Ramana: There are no others.
This is the simple truth of life and living well.
If only we can see how we are but reflections of one another then a lot of discrimination will stop right then and there.
Discrimination is the root of conflict.
To think one life as above or below another creates inequalities in mutual treatment and socialization.
Remember to practice non discrimination in life and living.

Dancing and Management
What’s dancing got to do with management
Everything!
Oh, she is a dance teacher!
What will she know about managing a business?
This is the common perception of people in business setups. They have a dismissive attitude towards anyone who comes from a non-aligned field like arts for example.
Personally speaking, as a dance professional for more than two decades, I can certainly say that the experience trains you into a lot more than dancing. It helps develop & cultivate people skills, culture and mindsets, and the ability to empathetically understand attitudes that can be observed in life and living.
Besides, there are common skills that go beyond business management and enter life skills that one needs to navigate life effectively.
Here are a few skills that come to mind immediately…
Dancing movements can open channels of flow which translates into greater energy optimization.
And each dancer may have explored the art of dancing in different forms and its application would have the potential to create a greater depth of understandings.
The value of art may be high, yet the possibilities and the potential application of art are yet undervalued and undermined.
There is so much scope in the art of movement that we can realize. It’s high time to accept that dance education and application has much to offer the world beyond just a stage performance. Great to see radical shifts in the way dance is being perceived across certain parts of the world. But it has to percolate to where all it can matter.
Time to think beyond and open up to these yet underutilized but valuable life management skills.

Such a beautiful share…
Both the words and the vision
So beautifully in tune…
They speak so much with passion
Touching the core of the heart.
Indeed! What a conscious connection!

What makes the artist see beyond?
What makes the perspectives alter?
What makes dimensions change?
What makes them emote through art?
Perhaps the gift of art is in keenness to see beyond the normal.
To focus on the minutest details that others miss
To envision the way things can seem
To visualize what is invisible.
Perhaps it is the ability to delve
Into the heart of the matter.
Or is in the ability to appreciate the yet unknown.

The essence of life is love
Wherever you are
Wherever you go
When life is calling
And you walk the path of love
Love brings life home!
Savvy
Nature is a great teacher
There is much to learn and emulate
There is much to explore & understand.
Witness and expand your horizons
Evolving for the better along the way.
Let nature lead the way.
Savvy
To dance is to realize the sensation of living, to energize the self and the surrounding with the wonder of life!
Savvy
Gifts of life
Love and wisdom
Are two profound gifts of life
With love life feels meaningful
With wisdom life feels purposeful
Between love and wisdom
Life moves on and evolves itself
Bringing forth emotions
Deeply entrenched in our psyche
All is part of life and living
Interconnects deeply interwoven
The Circle of life flows on
Whole and complete.

“Our First Dance– Thank you Savvy…This holds a special place in my heart 🙂 Sharon
This message and photo popped up on my Fb wall. Although it’s back in time. The memory of sharing my dancing skills with these two wonderful people is still very fresh.
Teaching dance is a beautiful profession and the rewards and blessings go way beyond…
I heartfully cherish all these dancing moments!
Thank you Sharon & Fennex for sharing this beautiful moment!

Today I am sharing a small part of an abstract painting I created earlier.
It gives me a splash of colours whenever I want a bright pop of colors to jumpstart my day.
Art speaks volumes without words.
Art is healing & therapeutic at the same time.
Correct choice of colours make all the difference They can enhance moods
In moments of melancholy
In times of restlessness..
In times of stress they can soothe the frayed nerves.
Yet what works for one may not work for another….
As every person has a unique sense of colour.
Creating is the art of making art, work towards a purpose.
Creating is also the art of allowing the flow as much as channeling the flow.

On World Kindness Day
A Share of kindness…
When kindness speaks
It leaves heartprints
No words are needed
When kindness speaks
All is conveyed in the sensing.
When kindness speaks
A bond is created
That unites us beyond ourselves
When kindness speaks
The world is bettered.
Savvy
When you speak, the words are yours and the thoughts are sent outwards, so choose your words…
When you hear, the words are others and thoughts are inwards, so think positively!
