When Simplicity Speaks

This week for me seems to be a traveling one, for work and pleasure and I am right now in a country where it is both common and fashionable to wear a lot of black. Can you guess which one?

And while you are at it, sharing this particular poem about black and white photography and I think I am co- relating to it literally here. Read on…

On black and white photography.

What is it about the black and the white

That evokes much emotion

In all its simplicity and elegance?

Monochrome has a surreal magic

That captures your attention

Strangely beguiling almost misleading

For it blurs the truths that appear

In the vividity of colour.

Yet it provides a stark definition

Devoid of any colour, yet not lifeless

It emotes through simplicity

Through the play of light and dark

Creating sensibilities and sustaining drama.

Both evocative and enigmatic in its elements

Inspite of the hidden hues.

Retaining charecter.

Reminiscent of old world charm

Of a translucent transparency.

A simplification of the complexity.

A composure of composition.

A completeness of capture.

On breath

Our breath…

An ignition to life and living
this world
No matter what form or species
And its the breath that is left
Behind that signifies the exit.


How important is this breath.
That we all take for granted
Gratitude and thankfulness
To this driving force of life
To nature for the air we breathe.


How important is this breath
For in the way of the breath
Lies the way of our health.
For in the depth of breathing
We can integrate our body, mind & spirit
We can sense the synergy of being
We can awaken our true potential.
We can become aware of the infinite potential.
For the truths of life, is in the inhale and exhale.

Music & moods

Play on…

When you are in the mood for music, play on

When you are feeling low, play on

When you are exhausted and tired and you want to revive your mood play on

Music is therapeutic and the healing
nature of sound energy can be tuned
into to change your mood & manage
emotions and lift your spirits.

Take some time to create an upbeat
playlist that perks you up and
engerizes you and get up from your
chair to move arounda bit.

Take a short walk every once in a while. with some great music for company..It will
bring a spring in your step and smile
in your heart.

In fact for every part of
the day, you can have a playlist of
your own choice. Take time to create
yours… if you haven’t already and do
listen… The right music makes a
powerful difference.

Play on…

What is Resonance?

Simply put

Resonance is a response

A response creating a movement

A movement that is the effect

The effect that comes from a cause

A cause that creates a change

A change that occurs in listening

In listening to the source

A source that creates a resonance.

A resonance is a response

In repetitive patterns

Creates harmony in nature.

Here is the Dictionary meaning of Resonance:- The sound produced in an object by sound of a similar frequency from another object.

In the above poem , I have tried to begin every new line with the last word in resonance. And yet keep it simple and short.

I enjoyed creating this piece hope you resonate with it too…

Imagine the effect of resonance

To the source coder of life

And the harmony it creates.

Flow in harmony

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.

Ocean of Oneness

In the journey of life
At one point or the other
In arriving to acknowledge
our truths
Comes a realization of our Oneness
Of how we are mere living fractals of life and longings
We are simply waves of light frequencies of resonance & dissonance
Dancing to the tunes
Of the Ocean of Oneness

A Prayer Answered

wp-image-680748262

In the bowing is a prayer answered
In the kneeling to the cosmic connects
Acknowledge the grace that’s revered
And the blessings that protects

Sense the touch of the angels around
Feel the flow of divinity in the haloed healing light abound…
Embrace the moments in silence and serenity.

Artwork Titled- ‘Blessings’ Painting by Savvy Raj

My painting ‘Blessings’, came to me almost as a flow… It spoke much to me as I brushed in serenity-of-silence with the colours it was as if it was meant to manifest itself and all along I sensed I was simply a channel.

Shine your light

Shine your light
The light of you
That comes through you
Your truth in your voice
Your speech in your words
Your work, your authenticity
Your moves, your way
Step into your light
Step into your place
Fill it with all of you
For none can fill this space
There is no other quite like you
For you are unique
In your own way
Shine on.

Thoughts matter


What do you think you deserve?
The answer paves the way
To bring it to your life
As you intend
You believe
As you believe
You intend
You manifest your intentions
The universe gives you,
As you think and intend,
Your thoughts matter
Believe well.
Think well intend well
For it matters more than you know.

We reap as we sow…

We are the Universe
And the Universe is in us
In every cell in every breath
We are connected
But can we really say
We are born equally
Yes, we are flesh and bones
But we live our life differently
We have different experiences
In the interconnects all through
Are we not responsible for it?
The way we lead ourselves
The way we behave
Is the gamechanger.
For the law of nature
Knows not favourites
In nurture nature grows
Whatever is Sown
This is the reality
No matter the illusions
We reap as we sow…

To my circle of connections

Dear Readers & writers

We are an ever growing circle
Emerging through our words
In the sharing we have grown
We have eased into each other’s hearts
We may not see one another ever
But we have connected in mutual respect
Of each others creativity.
Though the power of words
Comforted and understood
Accepted and appreciated
One another in our own little ways.
For we all know the power of words
That, one heartfelt word can change a day!

Thank you all for being here and hoping for a joyful journey ahead together for us all.

Nurture Trees

When you plant & nurture trees

You nurture the world

For trees nurture life.

In thankfulness for nature

That survives all odds

The living trees

Are our pillars of support

Towards sustainability

Releasing oxygen for the planet

Every one of us owes everyone of them so much.

Thankfulness & Gratitude 🙏

To the kindred spirit of the soulful trees.

A beautiful moment

A throwback in time…

A memory rushed in through the photograph I chanced upon.

A decade or more back, I remember how I passionately volunteered to train seniors to dance at the local church in Mumbai. This photograph is a reminder of them praying together on my birthday.

And we celebrated with a cake…

I knew not them beyond the Dance class.

They knew not me beyond the dance

But this motley crew of seniors

Made me feel very special

On my birthday and on every Monday too.

The day of their dance class.

Meet we would at 6 pm sharp

Without fail come what may…

These warm and courteous seniors were always on time….

These simple unassuming souls

Somehow etched their place in my heart.

Will cherish the memories forever

I thank them for trusting me & having me around.

And more importantly for the kind prayers & blessings.

Grateful ❤️
