The Wisdom Of Letting Go

“By letting it go it all gets done. The world is won by those who let it go. But when you try and try, the world is beyond winning.” – Lao Tzu

Trying to win is good

But when that very trying

Is consuming the life out of you

Would you think it over?

We teach ourselves

To try and try until we win

But there is always a point of tipping over.

Knowing when to bend so you do not break

Is a lesson in letting go…

When you are able to discern the detachment dispassionately

When you are able to rise beyond comparisons & competitions

When you are able to sense the contentment in what you have

You are meeting your true Self

For you are able to acknowledge in acceptance

The truth of what truly matters

In the learning to let go

You have witnessed there is abundance

In the circles of being there is always more

What is, was and will be

Always has a reason yet to understand

There is wisdom in the letting go!

Without a doubt

Translated from tamil forward by my mother Anjana

A young couple went to live in a new place.
Next day morning sipping tea they were looking out of the window. Their neighbour was drying clothes on the clothline. She doesn’t know to wash clothes properly. Look at the dirt on thair clothes. The wife said. Without replying the husband was looking.
This became a daily routine. Their time coincided n everyday the wife will comment about the dirt in their clothes while the husband was listening silently.
Suddenly one day the wife said atlast today the clothes are clean. She has learnt to wash well.
Quietly the husband replied ,. ‘ I cleaned our window glasses today morning. ‘

This is what happening in today’s lifestyle. Our uncleaned glasses make other’s things look dirty. But we never suspect our glasses.

Whether or not, there is some flaw with another we are ready to comment instead of finding the reason behind it.

Thrive

Life can never thrive in suppression

Or in denial and disapproval.

Or control and criticism

Choose to appreciate and approve.

Let go of the nagging and niggles.

Let go of judgements, fear and worry

Life is in each of us just the same.

Nurture life to live.

Engage with it lovingly

Life can be beautiful!

Live and let live.

Bridge of Awareness

From the architect of time, the source creator  came a space of  nothingness (akash)from space came matter  (energy) from matter came  movement (wind, air) from movement came fluidity (flow, water) from fluidity came existence from existence emanated the spirit of life (the breath of life, fire passion).











The elements existence are a guide in an acknowledgement of the interdependence. An awareness of  interconnections in an acceptance that everything exists in the subtlety of balance.  





The spirit of life and living is the bridge to our calling &purpose of being. As well as in the journey of the  being. The path is and will be ours and yet not just ours.










 Every move in time is interlinked in the bridge of time that we were, are and will be on. The bridge of time is in eternal cycle of motion. All matter constitutes one or more of  the elements in different proportions.










 While the mind of the matter  perceives it in thoughts, the heart of the matter senses. Mindful thoughts and heartfelt  feeling are both  real and unreal all at the same time. And consciousness is the bridge of awareness between the  extrinsic and the intrinsic,  between the learning and the knowing.





And in this understanding is the realization whole and complete of all as it is .

Life in the living

	


	

					






Life is 





Inexplicable Uncertainty in the now





Undefinable Strength in the moment 





Unimaginable challenges that arise 





Infinite possibilities  in the potential 





Unstoppable hope in the living 





Be it in Strength  or weakness 





Threats to opportunities 





Life shapes and moulds in experience 





Be it desires,  wants or needs





Life is a journey unto itself 





Life is a circle in the living.

Flip the script

	


	

					






Every day you have countless thoughts





Our thoughts carry energy 





Some positive ones making you hopeful





Some negative leaving you stressed 





Upset and drained.











But to truly make each day beautiful






Whenever there are too many negative






Thoughts  that arise…











Become mindful






In awareness, train yourself






To think it over






Focus the many good





Let go of the bad.











Flipping it over makes all the difference





 
The question is






Will u try and flip the script?

Boundless bond

	


	

					


On the brink…


The world is going through a severe crisis

Anyone could be the next victim of the virus

It knows not man made differences

Of caste color creed race or religion.


The edge of reason 


This is a time of uncertainty

Relationships old and new are on trial being tested in every way.

The need of the hour is to exercise caution, care, and spread hope and positivity

Yet there is still hatred, excess self indulgences all across the world.

There is still emotional mental and physical abuse in relationships…




Caught in the knot…


Caught in the knot is often the feeling for many

Where there is no trustful bond but just a feeling of being bound.


But yet tomorrow is another day…




Boundless bond…


May the love we have surmount the hate

May the good prevail over evil

May the light shine over the darkness of the mind

May we stay healthy and happy in our every now.

May we understand the power of words and spread them with care.




Soulful sensing…


What we have today we must cherish…


For a tomorrow that we build with love


For when we begin to see with our souls…


Our perceptions can alter, re-creating bonds beyond feeling bound.

One moment to the next

	


	

					


To stay centered in equanimity


Is to be aware of the self in this now


Are we present in the moment?


Are we staying calm to understand


Change is the only constant…




The so called high tides, give in only to recede in time.


The dunes speak of sifting sands of time


Where there were mountains there are plains today…


What seems impossible  becomes  possible in time.




All is meant to move on


Problems  well they come and go


Nothing lasts forever


That is why life is so precious


And every moment must be well lived.


From one moment  to next!

Game of Life…

	


	

					


Nicely penned by someone……


I watched a local football match in a school playing ground.


As I sat down, I asked one of the boys what the score was.


With a smile, he replied; they are leading us 3-0.


And I said, REALLY.


I have to say you don’t look discouraged.


“Discouraged” the boy asked with a puzzled look.


Why should I be discouraged when the referee has not blown the final whistle.


I have confidence in the team and the managers; we shall definitely overcome.


Truly, the match ended 5-4 in favor of the boy’s team.


He waved at me gently, with a beautiful smile as he left; I was amazed, mouth wide open; Such confidence; Such beautiful faith.


As I got back home that night, his question kept coming back to me –

…..

Why should I be discouraged when the referee has not blown the final whistle.




Life is like a game….


Why be discouraged, when there is still life.


Why be discouraged when your final whistle has not sounded.


The truth is that many people blow the final whistle themselves….


But as long as there is life, nothing is impossible and it is never too late for you.


Half time is not full time…..


Don’t blow the whistle yourself…..😊


*Be Alive*

Are you your own friend?

	


	

					


A true friend is there to support you if you fall.


Allow space for you to grow


Cheer you along the way


Take interest in your journey


Mean well for you


Stop you from self harm


Believe in you without a doubt


Yet dare to tell the truth to you.


Be with you so you are never alone.


Now think about it…


Are you your own best friend ?

To all the dancers

	


	

					


To all the dancers and those who choose to waltz with life….


As dancers we are a lucky lot!

We are totally able to dance with time…

Move with it on time,

Or take the offbeat road to reverse and revel the joy of reflections in the rivers of time.

On Acceptance

	


	

					


The Road to Acceptance  has  many challenges  in the learnings… not often easy, but certainly transforming in one way or the other.


Like there are many aspects to understanding

In acceptance   there are many perspectives

Acceptance  is not giving up or being in the same place.

To me a practice of acceptance is an ability to respect the now and in turn acknowledge  the transient  nature of  everything.

To accept then is to be able to have a feel or a vision of the situation as it is experienced in the now.




The Paradox of acceptance  is being defenseless to yin and yangs of life and living. Yet  to envision that acceptance comes from a place of strength,  is to be able to understand that we are not one entity but made of many parts that matter to the  whole.

So the stance of acceptance  is about flow & movements in the stillness , in hope to evolve in time along with the changes.
