Flowing in harmony

Flowing along is a sign of strength

Misconstrued to be a weakness

It is an instrument 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.

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.

I dream…

I dream of spaces…

Up in the hills

Over the dales.

Where the lofty mountains

Glisten as the sun shines over them.

Where the fluff of clouds

Glides and waltzes through and over them.

I dream to be…

Amidst the dancing clouds

And the valley so green

Echoing the peace so rare today

Endless spaces so vast and open.

Fragrance of flowers swaying so free

Shimmering sunlight over the lake .

I dream to be…

Where the cool winds blow

Walking through meandering meadows.

Watching the glistening blades of grass

Breathing the fresh mountain air

And rejuvenate the spirit once more.

On discernment

Discernment is a spiritual gift
As humanity stands perplexed
At times in the paradoxes of life
Confounded by challenges.

In the throes of confusion.
An ability to figure things out.
A clarity of purpose and reason.
An act of perception of the obscure.

An ability to be insighted and comprehend.
A sifting through to make sense of it all
Acknowledging the spirit of the soul
Meeting through both the head and the heart.

Discernment is a wonderful tool
In intervention than in criticism.
For the gift is an ability to distinguish
The truth, in the facades that may appear.
In understanding the real and unreal
The truths and the untruths
And everything in between.

When seen with dispassionate eyes
Beyond the mirrored existence
Shifting perspectives in the making.
Yet knowing simply all as parts of the same source.

The Dance of the Words

Like a pen striking words on a paper
The first draft there is much to write
But in the second there is discipline
As words are omitted to drive the point.

In the ensuing edits
There is order and structure
Helping matter get the message
In the conveyance of the creativity.

Like in art so in life
The dance goes on
Sometimes making a point
At times lost in translations.

The mood and setting may change
The course of improvisations
Sometimes blatantly
At times in all subtlety.

In depths of consciousness awareness
Arrive valuable insights
On spacing or styling
On perfecting the portraying
On emotions conveyed
On composition and construction
On overall content
Until the points are perfected
To express openly

Relentless as is our thoughts
Such is way of the words
Our imagination is infinite
All pervasive and expansive
And in all that’s said and done
There is much left unsaid
And yet while the words flow on
The dance goes on…

Move to ease!

Move to ease and release
To let go dis-ease
Reach out with a dose of kindness

Attract harmony within
Choose to befriend the self
Sense and share positivity & goodwill

In gratitude of the good .
Know there is always light
Only you have to choose to see it.

As you step out of your own way
You will see the blessings in your life.
Choose the path of love and light.

Sense of Grounding

The ground beneath us
Paves the way to move
There is always more to us
A little more to discover

In every moment along the way
And in the unfolding of our life
Tumbles a plethora of understandings
That opens up potential possibilities

To get where you want to go
You must arise from where you are
And be ready to take a step
Make a move to dare and explore.

The journey is full of challenges
Trying are the consequences
And yet change is the only constant
Things are never the same.

You and I evolve in time
Value the humble beginnings
For they ground you like nothing else

Our roots have way of their own
Holding you in good stead
In the pinnacle of success
And as you touch the ground.

Bravehearts

Life is beautiful and yet challenging in itself!

We define our life

In how we respond to life.

In moments of merriment to melancholy.

The changes bring along the challenges.

And in it is the wisdom of the now.

To remember the interdependence

And know we are not alone!

To know life is simpler in the letting go!

Many deep-rooted issues that we choose to bury within manifest themselves in time as diseases of the mind and body.

We are better off in the sharing…

When things are too tough to handle

There is no point in holding it all.

The remedy is never in suppression.

But our world is happier wearing masks

In its facades the truth submerges

Only to rise like a Phoenix

Unexpectedly at the most inopportune of times.

Time to accept our vulnerabilities,

And find the strength from it.

Commend a share from the heart.

Support and appreciate their efforts.

Build a sense of community to help

For the truth is we are all in it together.

The healing is in the sharing
In the very ability to share
The first step of healing begins
For often in brushing under the carpet
The debris gets collected in time
And manifests grief in unexpected ways…
In the very vulnerability of life
Is the strength of living.

Kudos to ‘Brave-hearts’ for sharing their stories.
For it can inspire hope to someone somewhere…
Who needs to know, all is well in life and living
And hope is here to stay!

Still waters run deep

When water is still

There is mystery

In its stillness

Of its depth.

In its state of flow

Water acquires power

As it allows itself to be shaped.

In it is the strength to adapt

To be gentle stream in the flow

Or rise up like the waves

And in its very depth of being

Is a plethora of life’s potential

Thriving in the contentment of balance.

Sense of being!

Where is your sense of being?
Your space to make sense of life!

Are you acquainted well and in tune with your habitat?
How well do you know of who you are?
Can you fathom the potential possibilities
Of your ubiquitous and unique life?

Between the known and unknown
Of the simple to the complex
Emerge new patterns in the making
From the reigning confusion in the chaos.

Creating in the exploring
Illusory dimensions in reflections
What is logical and yet elusive
The ambiguity of certainty!
And yet …

Our sense of being, while creating new patterns of thoughts is deeply rooted in nature, and in nurture, which gives it a sense of direction in spite of the chaos and confusion.

It will find its own way!

On Waves

To dare as much as to retreat

In the ebb and flow of life —

Waves teaches us much!

To reach the pinnacle of success

Is one thing,

But truth of nature is, it changes.

So, the glory must recede in humility.

Such is the way of balance.

There is no gain in holding on.

There is grace in letting go.

Such is the circle of life.

Our vibrance

Our universe is full of waves of energy. And all life is energy in varied forms .

In the subatomic level all is vibrational and moving .We are all pulsating oceans of energy fields. This very waves of energy is what makes us unique as we are in ourselves and in the way we interact with one another.

Sometimes these waves of energy are seemingly stagnant and at times moving in momentous speed.

Life is full of vibrations. Sometimes you sense its brilliance and at other times it is so subtle and subjective to our level of understanding at that point in life. Yet there are reasons for why you emit the vibrations that you do. And it’s all interconnected.

From the food, you eat your choices have a way of influencing your body and your body affects the way you feel and think.

Our thoughts have much to do with our emotions and thus the behaviour of every cell is affected in a relational way to another.

Some simple ways to raise your positive vibrations…

Walk outdoors

Smile and laugh more

Spend time in nature

Have a hobby

Support a cause

Exercise, dance & play

Listen to soothing music

Eat vegetables and fruits

Drink adequate water

Think well for one and all!

And most of all

Love life and live it lovingly!

The point of it all!

Sharing these beautiful perspectives.

With some pictures that went along with these thoughts

The first two lines are enough to keep you going…

An incredible way to look at GOD!!!

When GOD solves our problems, we have faith in HIS abilities.

When GOD doesn’t solve our problems HE has faith in our abilities.

God’s accuracy may be observed in the hatching of eggs . . .
-those of the canary in 14 days;-those of the barnyard hen in 21 days;
-eggs of ducks and geese in 28 days;
-those of the mallard in 35 days;
-The eggs of the parrot and the ostrich hatch in 42 days.

(Notice, they are all divisible by seven, the number of days in a week!)

God’s wisdom is seen in the making of an elephant. . . .

-The four legs of this great beast all bend forward in the same direction.
– No other quadruped is so made.
– God planned that this animal would have a huge body too large to live on two legs.
– For this reason He gave it four fulcrums so that it can rise from the ground easily.

-The horse rises from the ground on its two front legs first.
– A cow rises from the ground with its two hind legs first.

How wise the Ultimate Creator is in all the works of creation!

-Each watermelon has an even number of stripes on the rind.
-Each orange has an even number of segments.
-Each ear of corn has an even number of rows
-Each stalk of wheat has an even number of grains.

-Every bunch of bananas has on its lowest row an even number of bananas, and each row decreases by one, so that one row has an even number and the next row an odd number.

Amazing.

The waves of the sea roll in on shore twenty-six to the minute in all kinds of weather.
-All grains are found in even numbers on the stalks.
God has caused the flowers to blossom at certain specified times during the day.

Linnaeus, the great botanist, once said that if he had a conservatory containing the right kind of soil, moisture and temperature, he could tell the time of day or night by the flowers that were open and those that were closed.

The lives of each of us may be ordained by the Creator in a unique way, all we need to is be willing to keep the faith.

Gods creations are interweaved and interconnected like he made our brain and heart, and it can function optimally when it moves in unison as one integrated whole.

Let us keep the faith and reach out in trust… in ourselves and beyond!

Life without God is like an unsharpened pencil — it has no point.

I am there by you

All of my creation

I hold dearly

In the palm of my hands.

I am your anchor

When you set sail.

 

I am there

To weather your storms.

So, sail on, dear child

As the cool winds blow.

 

Dare to explore

As much as you dream.

Your life is here

In this now.

 

Live it fully

With both hands, if you wish,

For I am there

To hold you

If you ever fall.

Keep the faith,

Trust and believe.

All is wonderful

When you truly do.

Faith is all there is

Without it, nothing is.

What would you teach the child of tommorow?

What would you teach the child of tomorrow?

Teach tomorrows child
To co-exist and cohabit
To know that none can be an island for too long
Teach the ability to adapt and not just tolerance
Teach them how to cope with life’s changes

Teach them gratitude and thankfulness
Teach them to maintain the dignity of being
That life is to be valued and respected
Teach them, the value of empathy and love
Teach them compassion and kindness as a way of life.

Teach them humility is not demeaning
Teach them honour and integrity
Teach them resource management and
Teach them to share & sustain the world.

Teach them the art of self-management
The world is increasingly self-absorbed
Teach them manners to be social and civil.
For beyond the gadgets and convenience of modern living that help us thrive
There is a human out there who needs to survive.

Embodying the light

Just for this now…

Keep away assumptions,

Move beyond self-absorption,

Steer clear of judgement

And ease up in acknowledgement.

Just for this now…

Stay still enough to understand

The dance of life as it unfolds;

Step to the beat of the distant drums;

Listen and move to the cosmic rhythms.

Just for this now…

Dwell in the spirit of this moment;

Let go of what needs to go in the giving;

Allow the flow in the receiving.

Just for this now…

Sense the truth that is eternal;

Know there is much beyond;

Fathom the mystic of this moment;

Live this life lovingly!
