Far and near…
A matter of taking a forward step
On facing your fears
What seems fearful from far
Becomes surmountable in a dare.
What appears difficult from far
Becomes easy as you go nearer.
Every step to face the obstacles
Can help overcome the challenges
Make sure to move
For then the steps taken
Is a progress from where you were
What’s surrmounted, closes the gap
Between what’s far and near
Truly a matter of movements
Take a step make a move!

With sizzling weather &scorching heat
As the sun bore us down without respite
A welcome change is just around the corner
As whisps of breeze, teases the leaves today…
For across the horizon the summer sky is giving way
Monsoon is playing hide and seek
Waltzing with fluffs of white clouds until they turn grey.
And engulfing the clear blue sky
Finally rain has made an appearance
Signaling showers of abundance.
Yes to the changing seasons
To cool the earth and naturally so!
Savvy
Belief is an act of invoking wisdom.
Trust in waiting is true acceptance.
Allowing is an act giving in faith
Receiving in humility balances the ego.
Trust and believe in the infinite abundance
Allow yourself to give and receive
Let your intentions be guided in goodwill and grace.
Abundance manifests!

How much are we what we write about
Our thoughts are simply quite complex
Sometimes we are a bundle of contradictions
We may begin to write on a whim
As fancy may catch us sometimes
But we are steered by the thoughts that we think
Sometimes remembered reflections
Sometimes in propulsion of passions
Sometimes aimless fired by default
Sometimes in self awareness
Combining experiences in the life and living.
Within set standards in conformity or in whimsical sentimentality
Where is the turning point?
Where we assemble our thoughts
Amidst the jumble of arising waves
What distinguishes our thoughts
That flow from us in words
To arrange itself in this self arranging life.
In our fractality there is fragility
As much as rigourousness of rigidity
Raising righteousness in morality
Of conscientiousness in the wake of integrity.
And there is no denying the dedication
In single minded focus
In pursuing a thought home
Manifesting through words
Conveyed with a purpose.
In feelings and factuality
Peeling through the layers
There is much of us in what we write
And yet so much a figment of pure imagination
The words may carry our thoughts
But take on a form of their own…
Shaping up as stories
Letting there be a mystery
For all to read and fathom
Of how much is true
And what is fictional?🙂
Savvy
Breathe in awareness
Breathe out of morbidity
Breathe in lightness
Breathe out of denseness
Breathe in wholeness
Breathe out of separateness
Breathe in flexibility
Breathe out of rigidity
Breathe in truth
Breathe out of the false
Breathe in peace
Breathe out of chaos
Breathe in clarity
Breathe out of distress
Breathe in wisdom
Breathe out of ignorance.

Fruits of nature
To cultivate plants and trees
Is a labour of love
Definitely not for the impatient.
For nature takes it’s own time.
But in the yield is another story
Of the manifestation of joy’s untold
Or of disappointment in expectations.
For nature may have so many reasons
The harvest differs in every season
Sometimes there is a bounty
At times there may be scarcity.
But effort must go on, in hopefulness
No matter the produce and the yield
Quite like life, learning from the lessons
You must go on, you cannot tarry back!
Savvy
Today is celebrated as the Worlds Environment Day, let us take a moment to appreciate trees and plants around us for the beautiful and blessed presence and let us make an effort to preserve them and grow more.
Stepping beyond the comfort zone
Is a dare to trust the given chance
A step is all it takes to get on
As the soul readies for a spirited dance
Knowing nothing that is beyond this now.
A blind conviction
To reach the unknown and how
Is a story of guts and gumption
The moment is all there is at hand
To test the strength at bay
And explore far away land
Flowing along with a heart that shows the way.
All this life is a test of will
To transcend the levels known
As you climb the mountain and hill
Being in touch with natures own…
Life may be a challenge at work and play
Do love this life to connect with care
Every moment is given in every night and day
To live in this now and heart fully share…
Your life is a pattern of living
That you choose on your own
So rise to the unique moments
Sharing the joys you have known.
Savvy
Looking at the fan like spread of this plant
Got me thinking of how wonderous
Are nature’s way of showing
Us how to live ….
In its arrangement of structure
There is a trustful abundance
Of spreading and expanding
Without fear and constraint
Yet deeply rooted to the core .
I just felt like cherishing this lesson.
I decided to take a photograph
In inspecting the picture closer
I was inspired to see the beautiful flow
Of so many shades and hues of colours
In those unassuming fan shaped leaves.
How much more subtly can nature say
Live life flowing in such a graceful way.
Savvy
The search for meaning
Is never in vain
There is always a meaning
To life and living.
One or a million reflections
Maybe more
At times can lead
To a miracle in the making
One or a million drafts
May lead us to a perfect design
One or a million words
Maybe more…
Can bring on the inner genius
One or a million works of art
Maybe more…
Delivers a masterstroke.
Each step is of value
And somehow significant
To someone somewhere
As much as…
To the ultimate whole!.
If something seems to be of waste to one person, there is always a possibility of so many who may find it useful.

Beyond borders
There is something more
To human connection
That establishes itself
On it’s own terms
Between strangers
In simply seeing beyond the looking
In a space of understanding
The vulnerability of human life
Where eyes meet and interpret
Their soul connects.
Beyond race, beyond gender and age
Where the heart brings forth itself
Boundlessly beyond manmade borders
And speaks the language of empathy
In loving kindness
This is the space of being truly human.
Savvy
Sharing this powerful yet simple social experiment which gives us an idea of what humanity can truly be.
Watch this inspirational clip of what happens in just 4 minutes of sitting down and looking at another’s eyes.
In a place where the ego rests
At ease with nothing to prove
Where learning flows along
With nothing to suppress.
Where movements arise
In the grace of energy
Where time moves on it’s own pace
Without no hurry and worry.
When understanding manifests
With nothing to lose or gain
When every moment is lived in the now
With no reservations and notions.
Where there is no place for fear or favour
There is no clamour for success and fame
Knowing change is the only constant
And all is fleeting through in time.
In this journey of life and living
In learning and unlearning
In doing to nondoing
When dedication and discipline
Create the way for itself.
Without pride and vanity
Without assumptions and judging
Without claiming and complaining
Without imposing and refuting.
Life evolves in such focus.
Where wants reduce in reflections
Then desire sublimes itself
To nothingness in time.
Where wisdom rests in subtlety
Where there is no seeking
With no questions to ask
All the answers manifests unto itself.
Savvy
So many stories
Echoing through the eras
Etched in the sands of time.
So many patterns formed in the living
A proof of things that were
And shaped by the situations
In the challenges of life
That was, is and will be.
“The patterns are never random but a part of a history signifying the survival mode.”
Savvy
A Digital Painting by Savvy Raj
In the farthest path without a trail
The soul might find its root of being
The heart and mind will set its sail
And stir the soul into its state of knowing
Beyond the path, that’s homeward bound
The journey is the test of the perseverance of will
To reach the home roots of many lifetimes that the soul has found.
Wise to persevere to reach the place unknown and known
The path is forgotten but will be forged on just fine.
When in faith the seeds have been sown
With a will to reach, crossing the trials beyond yours and mine … 🙂

Dance is the innate nature of Creation. Nature is dancing all around us…
Rain is the dance of the clouds
Flowing is the dance of the water
Waves are the dance of the ocean
Melting is the dance of the ice.
Breeze is the dance of the wind.
Swaying is the dance of the trees
Blooming is the dance of the flowers
Sprouting is the dance of the seed.
Flickering flames,the dance of the fire
Murmuring, the dance of the birds
Dunes are the dance of the desert
Twinkling stars are the dance of the sky.
Thoughts are the dance of the mind
Actions are the dance of the body
Atoms are the dance of space
Evolution is the dance of life.
A dancing heart enlivens us to fine-tune with our surroundings , adding joy, self confidence and positivity!
My humble tribute to the dancing spirit of my lovely, lively daughter with a heart filled with the dance of Love. 💃🏻💃🏻💐❤😘😍

Few days ago on International Dance day… I received this beautiful poem by my dear mother.
Sharing the few verses above penned by her and her words to me as well.
It truly made my day!🙏
Savvy
I write when I am charged with an idea, an inspiration. Or perhaps when there is nothing else to do.
I write to radiate the positive intentions in hope & gratitude.
