There are certain good things
Which manifests themselves
In this journey of life
But to do so you need to allow
The pathway to unfold the potential
Just care to be open to possibilities
Allow space for new
Allow hope to find you
Make way for the good energies
Make an intention to believe in yourself
Your life is as good as you allow it to be.
The choice rests with you

Speaking of my passions…
As for me beyond traveling, learning, writing, reading & writing & sharing a few musings every day, it certainly is a mix of different things…
From creating Art to Painting, Training Consultancy, Ballroom Dancing ,Volleyball, Poetry, as much as conversations with people. Infact I am passionate about whatever work I am doing in the moment. I have enjoyed giving it my full attention with all of me.
Everything connects
Every day is full of new learnings in whatever one does. And have often sensed the strength of the interconnects in these passionate pursuits.
Have had many personal experiences where I have sensed how in the heart of the arts is all science and the core of science is all art.
Whenever I have dedicatedly pursued any work or hobby with passionate perseverance I have found that I have all the patience at my disposal to nurture what I do… Life is far more interesting and even bearable as you are driven by your calling or purpose. Am sure you can relate to this somewhere in your life.
Would you care to add a few of your passions?

Positive thoughts make all the difference
When the moments in life are so sweet that…
the little voice in your head says …
‘it cant last,
Just care enough to tell yourself,
‘Maybe its about to get better.’:)

It was three o’clock in the night. The eyes of wife opened with a knock.
She saw four dacoits pointing a pistol at her. They had tied the husband and locked the children in the drawing room.
After searching all the shelves, a good amount of cash was recovered and jewelery was also found.
Then a dacoit said, “Where is the 1.5 lakh iPhone that your brother had sent from America ? And where’s the necklace that your husband had gifted you on anniversary day ? Handover same immediately or else I will shoot.”
The wife handed over all the things out of fear and then asked in amazement, “But brother, how do you know all this ?”
“Hey, we are your Facebook friends…we regularly read all your posts. Well, if you have any leftover delicious pudding you made in the morning, then serve that too.”

Life is all about balance
Of knowing and understanding
Of the uncertainties of every now
And therein lies the uniqueness
Amd uncanny the ways of existence
Life manifests in mysterious ways
Sometimes leaving us clueless
Almost impossible to decipher..
So much fodder for imagination
While the pen may wax eloquent
There is room for exploration
In the reaching beyond the knowing
Beyond the sum of our senses
And the betwixt and beyond
Imagination and curiosity
Lies the path of sharing & learning.
Savvy
As you go through daily life
Just care to remind yourself
That you are being watched over
And cared for …
This simple habit will bring
You immense peace
and transmit universal love.
Peace be with you!

The Beginners Mindset
Helps in honing the ability
To see the world with fresh eyes
In curiosity, awe and wonder
Letting go of unnecessary perceptions
That can cloud the clarity.
When you choose
An open mind
Without assumptions
And preconceived notions
Without pride or prejudice
No matter who you are
What you have,
Or how much you know…
You are present
You are receptive
And welcoming of perspectives
To explore infinite possibilities
Of the potent now.
Savvy
Begin the day
With enthusiasm for learning
And hope to discover some more
Unlock the possibilities
Of your mind
Adapt your ways
To learn from the challenges
Experience the world
Be open to perspectives
Learn and reflect
Give generously
Share to learn some more.
That way you create space
For you to grow
Savvy
In a world too busy to care,
Too hurried and impatient
All must happen fast
Every thing must move quickly
Speed is a part of life
And life is lived on the fast lanes
However hurried reaction
Is considered unwise
Compared to the calmness of response.
Yet the truth is …
Between the active and passive
Exists a space to balance
Between reaction to response
Exists a pause for reflection
With reference to the choice of voice
Both have significance of their own
In the right situations & context
That can make all the difference.

Wisdom of Moderation
‘My first intentional practice of Tai Chi began years ago on a rainy day in the month of June. The sweet cadence of the rain in all it’s rhythmic glory, the cleansing nature of the rain was just as wonderfully comforting as much as the experience of Tai Chi, with its movement in stillness and the stillness of its movements.
As I tried to move in unison with breath and learned to direct the momentum for the movements from the central core of the body to the outward, I could draw the parallels of the simple yet profound principles of Tai chi giving a lifetime’s guidance.
A life lived in the middle path gives one equanimity to see beyond the obvious. To envision the duality of existence enough to understand joy and sorrow, are not something eternal. Life becomes simple and just as easy to live as we make it , letting go of excesses of any kind, which ultimately works towards healing oneself from within.
It only adds to the fact that this moderation makes you want to work at building progressively, instead of pushing the boundaries and stretching beyond your abilities to the point of probably injuring yourself and giving up altogether.
The rain’s rhythmic tapping on my open window sill, the occasional bursts of cool breeze surrounding me now and then was in tune with my learning to release and melt away the accumulated stresses through conscious gentle outward movements . I felt a few varied sensations coming to me vying for attention, but as soon as my focus returned to simply witness the flow of breath in the movements the very same sensations completely vanished.
It was so peaceful to end the practice with breath awareness and mindful movements that I must add that like everything else in life, Tai Chi must be ideally learned under the guidance of a good teacher to experience the gamut of life enriching experiences it surely has to offer.
As I completed my practice for the moment , suddenly there was thunder and lightning signifying the release of feel good endorphins and hopefully parting with some of the tensions within me. This is after all the essence of Tai chi , to be one with Nature and learn to nurture it .
A humble dedication to Tai Chi form and the powers of the supreme in and around us.

Positive change begins with us.
Every living being is making a difference to the environment in every moment. The question is how and in what way can it become sustainable.
With melting ice-caps, the collapse of vegetation and wildlife, and violent surges of hurricanes droughts and frequent wildfires are all concerns for our world.
And there is really not much difference in the apathy that is happening in the name of sustaining the future… only much similarity in the situation of corruption and deceit through politics of governing people whatever the part of the world we are living in.
Sustaining the world is each of our responsibility as we think of ways to nurture the earth and nourish souls.
It is time to take it upon ourselves to make a positive difference from wherever we are.
Reduce reuse and recycle … every tiny effort makes a better world!

Nature of Creation
We are nature
And nature is in us
We cannot exist independently
The spirit and soul, in each of us
Knows a thousand lifetimes & more
We live parallel lives in the eons of time
Our cells know the truth of being
As they are created and degenerated
Making way for more to manifest
Such is the cosmic resonance in us
Like stars & galaxies betwixt & beyond
We evolve in the Universal oneness.
Savvy
Energy matters!
Feed the soul with love
Fire the spirit with enthusiasm
For the body never lies!
