Rhythm of nature
Dance with the rhythms of nature
Be like the sun and sky all aglow
Show up like the sky without absence
Always allowing the light to brighten the day.
Feel one with waves dancing with water
Flow like the gentle rain and let go your worries
Emerge refreshed having soaked in the energy of water.
Feel the breeze of the cool winds blow.
Sense the grounding from the mountains and trees
And stay firm, ensconced like the arresting mountains do!
Witness your thoughts that drift in like tidal waves
But rest yourself rooted like the tree that you sit below.
Feel one with nature and be blessed by its wisdom
Know that endless are the learnings from Nature …
Care then to adopt the rhythms of nature.

The handshake
The handshake
The world betwixt and between
You and me are united in a handshake
An extension of hand is a reaching
Conveying a power in the vulnerability
Accepting the reached out hand is readiness
To blend in thoughts and amalgamate the differences.
Both a beautiful deed in summation
In acknowledgement and acceptance
Lies the evolution of peace and sanity
Without weapons of war, and in clarity.
In union of thoughts is the confluence
In wisdom of the heart and maturity of the mind.
Of knowing the futility of factions
And sensing the value of peace and goodwill .
Global need of times today
Is not seperation but unity in diversity.
A handshake is a step towards in forwarding
The value of the strength in the interconnects.
Together we are strong to surmount every storm.
Earth needs to consolidate and come together
A hand shake today can lead the way!
Good to see a handshake that warms the soul.
No idea of its repercussions in regression.
But two hands linking together is always a sight to behold.
You Most Certainly Can Dance
A short story of inspiration for beginners learning to dance!
A pleasant Sunday morning, finds me in a new venue, a family club actually for my dance workshops in the suburbs of Mumbai , well it was a start of something new, so there I stood before my new batch of learners. I notice a lovely couple had brought their daughter of five along with them. Being a parent myself I understand the limitations of nuclear parenting in Mumbai and the fact that there are times that one has to just take the kids along where you want to go, as sometimes, there is no one you could leave them safely with.
The keen observer in the picture is the little girl I have written about 🙂
I smiled at the little girl who gave me a warm smile back. Very sweet I thought! Soon enough I began the session with the usual round of introduction to the dance form and then went on with the basic step of swing. I was quite busy with the parents and just had a cursory glance the little girl who I saw amusing herself standing near the corner where a couple of chairs were stacked.I went about explaining about the beat, counts and the rhythm and the body positioning and was halfway through the session . I was engrossed in teaching so much that I was suddenly jolted with a soft but insistent tap on my arm. I turned and was absolutely amazed when the little girl showed me the basic step with perfect timing to music. The little girl had carefully observed what I was doing and imbibed it for sometime standing quietly in the corner and once she was confident she came up to me silently for approval.
I was clearly bowled over by the power of observation and interest in this child. Many a times with power of observation we can master all that we want to by our-self , provided we have the determination to focus on our goals.
The little child’s brain had mapped a visual imagery of the step clearly, and was able to recall it at will even though she had not practiced it half the number of times her parents had… along with me.
The power of observation has no age barrier, some are gifted and some have to develop the latent power within, but we all certainly have it within us to reap the potential of this power.So do care to see a little beyond the denials and negations just trust and believe you can dance and then You Most Certainly Can Dance!
