“To be truly happy and contented, you must let go of what it means to be happy or content.” – Confucius
What is so difficult about the letting go?
Is it the fear of not being able to have it again when you need it most?
Or is it about the holding on to memories that were?
Or is it the attachment to things that is most difficult to release?
When we realize how dispensable we are and how transient is our being…
We will begin to see the world with a fresh pair of eyes.
We will know, nothing is given
Neither our lives nor our nature
Every manifestation must evolve
To another state in the flow
Then we may perhaps be able
To accept letting go as part of the flow!

A Message of Gratitude.
5 years on Word press
A mighty task for me
To stay on, dedicated
To my writings.
But WordPress gives the canvas
To paint my words every day.
It encourages from the background.
Never in your face or intrusive.
But silently keeping tabs,
On every learning curve.
Rejoicing by a share
On every milestone
It has been a journey
Of many learnings
Along the way…
To my fellow writers & readers
Yes, I am no poet
Nor a writer by profession
I started on a lark
To dance with some words
To process my own thoughts
And give vent to my feelings
In a constructive and fulfilling way
And express I did
And continue to do, till date
With all my fellow writers
And readers, love, wishes & support.
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.🙏🏼

From the age of innocence
To the age of advancement
From unraveling of the mysteries
Of the mind the body and the being
Emerging from the depths of darkness
To exploration in light & space.
Diving into the ocean of life
Living in the extreme conditions
With just the will to dare
And discover the unknown.
We humans have traveled through time
Leaving imprints of consciousness
Both successful and otherwise
Every century has it’s own stories.
Yes we are living through troubled times
Calling in for tough measures.
A subject of huge debate
With confusion and chaos.
But survive we have and we will
Through calamities and war.
Inspite of impending darkness
We will keep moving towards light
Upholding hope beyond despair
Let’s help keep love alive in our hearts.
We will overcome the passing storms
We will survive the unsurmountable
We will persevere and thrive
For we are meant to survive.

Step into your inner world
Do you feel your mind is racing
With your speed of thoughts
Beyond your comprehension
Then perhaps you can try
To change the flow.
It’s very effective.
Whenever you are overwhelmed
By your own thoughts
Go reverse instead of going with the flow.
Be mindful to ask
And search the root of thought.
Ask where is this thought coming from?
Ask why you having this thought?
The more you trace backwards
On the thought itself.
You will deepen the contemplation
Eventually you will find your answers.
When you are pushed beyond yourself
You need to find out the source
You will find your truths
Along the way!

Always have something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.
It will make you a happy person.
And yes the potential to create that beautiful ‘something’ is in each of us.
It simply needs to be acknowledged
As it flows, choose to channel it with love.
Create light, feel light, live light!

The way you treat yourself in life
The way you treat another being
The way you interact
The words you speak
The deeds you do
The actions you take
All co-relate to the giant plan of
creation.
From the smile you share
To the kindness you show
From the tone of your voice
To the sounds of your steps.
All is circulating energy of pulsating vibrations.
Everything is connected to everything else.
Watch yourself, for you matter
Watch out for others they matter.
Value the life in the living.
Mirroring itself in the dimensions
Of life and living
Every move matters
For life reflects and resonates in the being.

All of life
Exists in nature
And nature in life
Our life is on standstill.
Earth needs us
As much as we need it
Time to introspect
And understand
What can be done!
To nurture any life
We need to understand
What it really needs.
A flower needs water
And sunshine
To blossom.
In the understanding
Is the empathic realization
Of what is the need of the now.
This kind of perspective
Is the crucial knowledge
That can help transform lives.
Nature thrives in nurture!
Let’s take care of it with empathy.
Let’s help nurture it back to health.
Are you in?

Every ask has a reason.
Every give fulfills a reason.
What reason it fulfills is another story!
Joy of giving & sharing
When can you give and share with joy?
And what happens when you give and share …
When your cup is overflowing !
A state of abundance
This is an extreme state where you are having so much to give. You are overflowing with possibilities in the potential.
When you give from here,
You may not miss anything.
You may not know the joy of sharing and giving as you have so much more.
Maybe you are giving because you want to get rid of whatever you are giving.
Maybe you want to self balance.
Maybe you want to share with those unfortunate.
Sharing the good always helps.
But do u know if the one you share it with truly wants it or uses it well.
Or do you give no matter
Even if it goes to waste
Because you are overwhelmed. Then that is not giving but discarding.
When your cup is half full!
When you are having some and then you share some, then you are sharing from your heart and brain.
Youunderstand and feel for those in need.
You share because you have something to share, may be not much but you know in your heart
That as you keep sharing you create space for more to come. You are balancing yourself between needs and wants.
You are careful in what you give but you give from your heart, from a space of love.
Such a giving arises from equanimity.
When your cup is almost empty!
When you give from nothing much to give maybe you are hyper extended already.
You may know but choose to ignore it
Else you may be unaware that there is not much left.
In both these cases the giving takes more out of the giver, so much so that it may soon cease.
What can u give when there is nothing to give?
You will give may be beyond your ability but then you will tire soon, feel used and exhausted.
This is a state of tilted balance not a great way to give.
We all may have experienced this at some point or other in our lives.
While giving from a place of love and trust it never goes wrong. We do need to feel the joy in giving. As long as your heart says go on, you must, else notice what’s making your hearts feel different and pay attention. You may learn something more on it!
When the giving & receiving complement each other it is truly ideal. But most often that is not the case.
However, giving is best shared when it comes from a place of trust faith & confidence in the giving that there is always going to be something to give.
When giving is mutual there is a flow and there is abundance.
When giving is from contentment there is gratitude and vis versa.
When giving feels enough it’s best to assess why it feels so!
In greater understanding, the giving flows…
Life is never stagnant
Its meant to flow
Be a giver
Giving always finds itself receiving
Life is a circle.
Savvy
Truth seeks out itself
Truth is able to enable
The seeker with reserve
To bear and see-through
The facades of illusions.
For truth knows itself
That it lies embedded
Enshrouded and embalmed
To reveal itself unscathed.
Truth cannot be restrained & shackled
In imagination and indecision.
Truth cannot be locked and chained
In the doubts of insecurities.
Truth is within & out there
The truth appears when it wants
To touch the core of the being.
Truth knows and understands.
Truth hurts and heals itself.
Savvy
And despite everything
The flowers continue to bloom
Trees bear fruits
Rivers flow
Sun shows up every morning unfailingly
Birds fly free
Nature keeps its pace
Life goes on.

‘Precious Soul’ Artwork by Savvy Raj
Your smile is your soul signature
Your voice is the vibration of your energy
Your speech is a channel of communication
Your intention is the story of your purpose.
Your eyes are the window of your soul
Your heart is the expression of your being
Your steps are the path you create
Your actions are the enabler of deeds
Your body is the lighthouse
Your spirit is light.
You are precious.
All of you!

A forward doing the rounds on Social Media caught my attention today.
Worth taking a moment to read and contemplate.
💦 After the 93 year old man in Italy got better in the hospital, he was told to pay for the ventilator for one day, and the old man cried. The doctor advised him not to cry over the bill.
What the old man said made all the doctors cry.
Old man said, “I don’t cry because of the money I have to pay. I can pay all the money.” *I cry because I have been breathing God’s air for 93 years, but I never pay for it. It takes €5,000 to use a ventilator in a hospital for one day. Do you know how much I owe God ? I didn’t thank God for that before.”*
The truth of the news can’t be verified, but the old man’s words are worth our reflection.
When we breathe the air freely without pain or illness, no one takes the air seriously. Only when we enter the hospital can we know that even breathing oxygen with a ventilator costs money!
🙏🏽 *Cherish the time when we can breathe freely..!* 💐👏🏽
It is certainly true for we take nature for granted. The Sun, the moon, water, air, glaciers mountains trees rivers animals and humans all have reason to be.
Let us learn to live and let live.
Let us live life lovingly!

Living in this now is a sustaining yet exacting task and as every moment presents itself uniquely there is no game plan other than living in it, being at peace, sensing peace and spreading peace in every now as life plays on…so own up to your share of peace.
