In difficult moments
Think of life
As ocean waves
Waltzing with the tides
Highs and lows
Are both part of the flow
Think of yourself
Realize you are
Not just in the flow
You are the flow!.

Wisdom of the flow
Cultivate Happiness
If only happiness can be summed up…
How easy it would seem!
But happiness can be elusive
When summoned it is often fleeting
But being able to take stock of your being
Will keep you aware
Of how much happiness is an inside job…

Wisdom of the Way
Learn the form, but seek the formless. Hear the soundless. Learn it all, then forget it all.Learn The Way, then find your own way.
The silent monk from the Forbidden kingdom
I love this wisdom of The Way
In trying to control
You realize in time
You never can have it all
In fact the more you try to do
You realize how unbalanced you are.
To find balance
You meet stillness in the listening
For it vibrates it’s own music.
Hear in silence and you sense it.
You don’t need to try too hard
What is meant to be found appears.
You don’t need to overstretch
You simply need to ease in to connect deeply.

A Great Idea
In thinking through
No idea is too small
Or no idea too big
Many small sparks
Come together
To ignite a great idea
In effort & execution
The ideas find a foothold
And steers on to success
An idea is as good
As the executors
As much as the values
And purpose behind it.
So that it sustains
As without follow ups
No idea evolves itself.
To claim anothers idea
As ones own.
To belittle anothers ideas
Is a mark of insecurity
And fear of losing out
Different intelligences
And respect for diversity
Grows ideas by leaps & bounds
What every founder
Must remember
Beyond funding
Nurturing the idea
Takes many minds
And many hearts
Treat people well
Stay humble & polite
And allow space
To communicate
And collaborate
And find transperency
Will work it’s magic.
Go confidently
Play on your ideas
Until the ideas
Strike the chord in you
Trust your path
Oblivious of naysayers
There are always
Going to be
Opposers to the plan
Think of them
As a free perspectives
To sift through
And fine tune ideas.
Keep seeding and nurturing positive inspiration.

What is art called in your language?
This is one of my favorite pieces from my paintings
I like a few things specifically besides the colours…
The flow
The fluidity
And the feel
I feel movements in a flow in the fluidity
I sense harmony in the synchrony
I sense the synergy of colours in the flow
I enjoyed painting this piece in one go.
I connect with this art deeply
Art is something that speaks from your soul.
In my native language ‘Art ‘is called ‘Kalai”
Would love to know what art is called in your native language?

Improving Decision-making Skills
Timely decision making is a valuable skill for one and all and especially for a manager.
As a Consultant and as Dance Educator I have often coached teams and dancers on this important skill. For procrastination can not only lead to delay and erode trust in teams but also have dire consequences .
Here are three simple ways to help take better decisions.
1: Think through to ask, thought-provoking questions. Questions that make way for reflection and greater insights.
2: Set goals and expectations and then explore varied perspectives & consider multiple alternative options.
3: Broaden perspectives, explore possibilities beyond the obvious. And challenge the self limiting assumptions that often create doubts & stall decision making.

Just Be You
When all of life
Lead to points of becoming
Someone, somewhere
Perhaps it’s time
To Just be…
And you will begin
To unbecome
Allowing space
For your soul
To be
All that you truly are!

Light & Dark
A Painting By Savvy Raj
Light is only light as long as you can see it.
Else there at most the anticipation of light.
What you see as light
Is your choice
For it is your point of view
But if light is a sense
Of the tingling warmth
Or scorching heat
Or the tenderness of touch
Light is sensed in its glow
Then light is a feeling
In the sensing
Of its so called attributes
Associated by you.
Then it’s your point of sense
What you see
What you feel
What you sense
Is a dance of illusions
Of the perception
All within you!
So is light light?
And is dark dark at all?
It is all in you!

Vortex
Power of thoughts stirs a creative force
Of patterns formed in the dynamics of fluidity .
As they move towards a vortex in space
Still malleable in their pliability.
Random impression in the expression
Until the next emanating thoughts give a shape unto itself .
Suspended in the Vortex in time, in their own circles of conviction.
The vortex is a whirl, never static, an energy unto itself.
In the vortex of life … care to witness the patterns that emanate
From that great artist consummate
Creations so unique, in no cell is design that is a duplicate.
The simplicity of the creative flow that is so hard to emulate.

Wisdom of the flow 2
On channeling the flow
In between the pressure of momentum
In between the dance of forces
Occurs the buoyancy of being
A self adjusted neutrality
A flow in harmony.
Steer away from impulsive resistance
Whatever you resist persists
Yes while resistance is natural in life
Resistance may create tension
Yet it can be a signal of change
In channelling this very resistance.
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
Sifting & sailing through your perspectives
Till harmony becomes you.
Savvy
Wisdom of the Flow
Flowing along is a sign of strength
Misconstrued to be a weakness
It is an pathway in awareness
Of awakening to the potential.
In respecting the harmony in nature
There is so much to understand
In the path of non resistance.
In letting go doubts & fear of the worst.
To thrive in the flow of possibilities.
To be cont’d….

Somewhere somehow
In moments of loneliness
The tango of the mind & heart
May seem to overwhelm.
Choose to shift the narrative
Understand you can be alone
Without feeling lonely
Blame not your luck or fate
Find connects with your own self
Draw out the beauty of you.
Acknowledge your feelings
Allow your emotions to express
Draw your patterns of possibilities
Doodle, dance, sing or play
To express and let go.
The spirit of the soul revives.
Care to relish the moments
Of connects that you sense.
Remember you matter to you
Stop being hard on yourself
Start to discover your potential
Choose to know yourself
All of you body mind & spirit
Seek to sense the freedom to be
All that you want.
Do that which feels you
With or without company
Choose to carve your life
Choose to be in spaces
That makes you happy
Find ways to connect
Volunteer your time
For a cause that resonates
Sooner than later
You will find
Your kind of vibe
Somewhere somehow.

On Creativity
Creativity flourishes in the freedom
To do, to be, to voice, to express
Without fear or favour
And yet to create is a responsiblity.
To hold the pieces together.
To give meaning to expression
As it makes thoughts tangible
It holds answers to questions.
In hope for innovations in posterity
Of solutions in probability
In the knowing every facet of creativity
Is just as unique as its creator.
