On learning
Our education leaves much room for improvement.
But consider these questions for a moment…
Why do you learn what you learn?
Ideally you learn because you are curious to know more and not because you have to finish a degree.
What is the reason for the learning?
Earlier at least in India the aspirations of parents were the reason of choice of what the course of learning would be . The options were limited and no one bothered to check whether the education even resonated with the learners.
How does it make you feel?
Have seen many sensing disconnect as they are pursuing careers in fields which have no connection with their earlier Education.
What way do you apply or use your learnings?
Often most of our prevalent education systems seems very transactional with marks and percentages with the purpose having no significance.
However degrees become meaningless if you do not use your learnings to make a positive difference.
Personally speaking
I believe to learn is to share and to share is to learn some more.

On Self Realization
When you realize, how much you already have
You begin to sense true contentment
Your needs become simplified
And your wants begin to make less sense
Your awareness increases.
In tuning into receptivity & realizations
Your life becomes substantially richer
In experiencing the joy of being content.
Realization begins to make an impactful difference.
And you begin to value and respect
Your life and the living.

On Happiness…
What if?
You are given an opportunity to travel to beautiful locales on work or pleasure ,in a country so far away from your own
Everything is wonderful and picturesque…
Yet, you are traveling along with people/ or paired with a person of completely different interests.
What if….
If you are a morning person and they are late risers
If you like walking and they like to rest more.
If you like to explore museums and art scenes and they have no interest in anything art
If you want to experience new culture by meeting new people and connecting with them than simply trying out food .
What if you want quick bites on the go and they like fancy dining experiences.
What if you want to start early and you are exasperated as they prefer late afternoon after a lazy lunch…
What if you are up and ready to go and they take a really long time to get ready 🤔
You like to capture experiences and rejoice in the memories and they have no particular interest in photography.
When you like to have a conversation freely and they are too busy or too silent, you often realise its better to remain silent unless spoken to even if there is company.
What would you do …
You make things right for you!
Let’s see, it’s not all that bad
You are in a new location….
You realise its better to have some company than traveling alone in some places at least.
You begin to appreciate the environment and yourself in it.
You appreciate others who are around.
You pay extra interest in people and places, the quirkiest, even the strangest and most peculiar things as much as the ordinary seem to matter somehow.
You try to find happiness in whatever you see.
You adapt to things as it comes.
You accept everything, as your life’s myriad moments.
You remember to focus on the positives acknowledge the good in them and move on…
After all
Happiness is in you!
And
Tommorow is another new day!

A Matter of Company
Amidst the believers
You will find the beacon of hope
Amidst the dreamers
You will find inspiration
Amidst the doers
You will find support
For your endeavors…
But most of all be in the company of the trusting
And the trustworthy
For they will have your back
When you need it most!

On Courage
I came across this interesting quote on courage…
Courage is willingness to take the risk once you know the odds. Optimistic overconfidence means you are taking the risk because you don’t know the odds. It’s a big difference.
Daniel Kahneman
It got me thinking 🤔
What is courage?
Is it about a dare
To do, to execute
To be, to explore
To experiment or experience
The yet unknown
What is the root of courage?
Where does it stem from?
From fear to fearlessness
From doubt to determination
From confusion to confidence
From uncertainty to certainty
To confront at all costs
What are your thoughts on Courage
Sometimes I feel whenever life through you out to dare without option of retreat
It does so because life knows
That you have it in you
To surmount the odds
Life challenges
And how!

On Acceptance
Accepting the difficult truths
Can be hard
Most challenging at times
But in acceptance
Is an ease of being
Your vulnerability
Can be your strength
It’s all in the attitude
That you may choose to have
In life and living
Accept yourself first
As you are, all of you
The rest will finds its way
To fit in .

Cosmic Energies
Let it flow…
In between the dance of forces
Is self adjusted neutrality
A flow in harmony.
In allowing to let go completely
Soon tension eases in the flow
In perseverance & patience.
In response than reaction
Creating positive transmutation.
In thoughts words and deeds
Till harmony becomes you.

Divine faith.
Heart connects.
Faith is a sensing
A knowing of a connection
Intangible yet intensely felt
In faith is an understanding
A learning to be patient
An accepting of more
In faith is a dance of possibilities
In faith is a communion with the divine
Where faith is everything is
The truth of you
A world is writ on your face
Your life plays in every cell
Your body is listening
And receiving in every now
Actively engaging with the changes…
Being one with the truth of you
Savvy
We are
We are our thoughts & words
We are our deeds & actions
Yet we are our every cell Imprinted in interdependence
We are connected intelligence
Now that is, was & willbe
We are fragmented fractals
Coexisting as a whole.
Nothing is accidental
There is always a reason
For the what why who, when and how?
In every cell of our being
Is a resonance in time
Of our every behavior & attitude
Altering the structure & alignment
That will take course & effect.
Through our entire life
We are deeply interweaved
In the tapestry of living.

Life
Will never forget the words said to me years ago by one of my senior most dance student, the gentle and poised Margaret, after a few months of social dance sessions, “So far we were existing, now we are living! ”
Live life beyond just existing!

Striking a balance
Passion or profit
It’s a juggling act
If you put one before the other
You are bound to feel displaced
Between loving what you do and earning to your potential
Between self expression & economics.
Both have the due place in our lives.
To sense harmony is to find your own balance
Between the two!
Savvy
On self improvement
Like time moving the needle
Every dawn is a message
Of hope and strength
Of better things to come
All happens in faith.
For every dawn is hopegiving
To wake up to possibilities
Let every today be the reason
For a better tommorow
Let the moments of life
Be lit along the way
In hope faith and trust
Of beautiful today’s & tommorows.
Savvy
Fluidity of the flow
Let us move with grace
Of fluidity to the new year…
Fluidity of the flow
Is soulful artistry
Both in experiencing the flow.
Being in the flow
Is about aligning
Towards the purpose
Of being the flow.
