Stories that steer

If we are alive

We have stories to tell

They are worth listening to

Worth sharing with another

Worth learning from another

Life is,what we make of it.

And our stories often create pathways

Of thoughts and action for ourselves

And through another life

Perhaps that’s why we need to share

To express the truths of our being

As for our stories of life and living

Of overcoming obstacles

Of surviving the odds

They may become a guide and toolkit

In maneuvering life in the steering

Leading into the path of clarity.

Course correction

When life feels too confusing

When efforts seem meaningless

When all feels overwhelming

Simply trust and know you are closer

To the path of clarity.

Sharing a few perspectives

On course correction.

And what we as humans can do…

Shifting from pain to purpose

Seeing experiences as learning

Knowing troubles are teaching

Imbibing these lessons as wisdom.

To live life even more lovingly

Sensing the sparking of joy

That ordinary moments hold.

On Self Management

It all started with a conversation with  one of my dance students of many years. She was going through some life changing challenges. And she poured her heart out.

This episode is inspired from that heartful conversation, I had with her on the many varied situations that confront us all and some perspectives I shared, on managing the self through the challenges.

Energy of peace

We all want peace

At all times

But is that peace

If it creates war.

Can war create peace

What peace is peace

That destroys another.

True peace is in ease of being

Peace that flows through

In and around us

That is already within each of  us

Awaiting our acknowledgement

To connect and embody

So let’s align with our inner peace

And let the heart share this peace

With the world  outside

In thoughts words & deeds l

Let peace be the way of being

It radiates and alters the energy around.

The Way of Abundance

A little lake

Meets the river

The river meets the sea

The sea meets the ocean.

All in its own time

In its own way.

Think of the  ocean

As an ocean of abundance

Likewise in this journey of life

All that which you seek

Finds and meets

In its own time

In its own way.

Live life lovingly

Trust and Believe

In the way of abundance..

The way of the heart

Love is the way of the heart

The heart beats on

In tune with the sounds

Of the distant drummer.

The ultimate life giver

The source coder

Who shows the way

In living life lovingly.

Greater the tuning

Greater the listening

Greater the alignment

Easier is the path  of clarity

Repose

I like the moments of morning calm

Before the world wakes up

I find the time for reflection in gratitude 

For nature in and around me.

The night helps settle the density

Of racing thoughts in time.

Like water becomes clearer in stillness.

The calm and quiet of early dawn

Surfaces peace and clarity.

Mirroring the truth of the moments.

Emerging  in the space of stillness.

As all  the agitations drop as sediments

To repose the restless waters in calm

Realising the value of patience

Therein is the grace of effortless ease.

Shades of Milk

I wrote this piece years ago. Yet nothing much has changed in spite of so much awareness. Milk and milk products adulteration is still rampant . Sharing this again for it is relevant and it matters.

What are your immediate thoughts On the above picture? I am not a milk consumer, but at home, everyone loves plenty of yoghurts to go along with food. In fact, it is considered to be appropriate for digestion, and as Indians, we often tend to finish the meal with some buttermilk. For the past few […]

Be like a cat

“When a cat falls out of a tree, it lets go of itself. The cat becomes completely relaxed, and lands lightly on the ground. But if a cat were about to fall out of a tree and suddenly make up its mind that it didn’t want to fall, it would become tense and rigid, and […]

Perseverance

In the lowest tide of life

Gather energies sincerely.

In the depth of silence

Delve into your own self.

Acknowledging your situation

Yes, in this space, exists

Solutions,answers and the pathway

To everything you need to know

And as it reveals itself, sense it all.

Feel the power of possibilities

And the infinite potential

In perseverance of purpose.
