On Razors edge

My reflections on the stunning capture of the Cherry blossom Tree on Mount Fuji in Japan.

On the razors edge , there is poignant elegance

Beautiful poise, precariously in balance

Amidst the fury of the fire raging beneath

She stand resolute in her calmth

Not helpless but in knowing Nature’s ways

That in time all is well back to base

Beauty on the outside burns off into the ember

Leaving an ashen pile of dust to remember

Yet deluding the fury in being uprooted

In the strength of the grounding firmly rooted

Leaving an evergreen picture of poise

She has that stoic stance of grace

A pose of composure on destiny’s face

In spite of a life abruptly denied

She is the beauty of Grace personified !

Touching Peace in the Middle path.

December 29, 2018 by Savvy Raj 6 Comments

Her likes were not blatant and loud —

Not the one to shout out.

Her kind of songs were of melody and rhythm,

In sync with her heartbeat.

Her type of books were all of an understanding,

The soothing and sagacious kind,

Of healing and harmony.

Her friends were far and few.

Not much would escape her lips;

Her speech was guarded.

None had really stepped into her inner world.

In fact, her family too knew little about her.

Her words were simple, not stormy.

In fact, she chose the middle path in life —

A road safe and steady.

Not for her the bane of fame and fortune;

Not for her the choppy waters of high tides.

She preferred smooth sailing in serenity.

She was a lover of grace in simple things.

She never was the seeking kind.

Neither love nor laurels, pleasures nor pain,

She lived a life of content.

She never craved too much.

She knew the price of desire only too well.

Awakening the self, the way bearer in the wisdom of living.

Want of wealth never brings balance of needs.

Hoard nothing and healing begins.

Living intentionally is not about living selfishly.

She was privy to the clasping clutch that ambition brought.

She witnessed the sacrifice of lives barely lived.

She grew in the unfolding drama that power portrayed.

She was torched by emotional upheavals, but she rose in fortitude.

She amassed the wisdom in the power of silence.

As she knew and sensed the peace in the middle path.

Who is she?

What makes her who she is?

What guides and motivates her?

What brings her peace and contentment?

What makes her grateful?

To every evolving question, there is always a reason to be.

And to each their own path to be!

Infinity of truth

Is the truth of Creation

Bound by laws,

Or is creation a product

Of union and collisions?

Every act of creation

Is a manifestation of reality,

A dimension of truth

A matter, a shape, a form

In the envisioning of the ultimate oneness.

What is the nature of creation?

Is it a continuum of intentions,

Rising like a phoenix,

To the alpha and the omega?

Is it a beginning with an end,

Or an end with infinite beginnings?

It is not yet fathomable.

As man seeks to understand

The order of things,

Life creates disorder.

It shakes things up a bit

For all to settle for a while

Back into place.

And man thinks

He has deciphered

Finally the meaning

Of his own self

Amidst the others.

But he is stumped by chance

Once again by stepping in

To another dimension

In the making, and yet again

Is left pondering over

Another reality in illusions.

We are mirrors of our existence

For no answer is the perfect answer

No truth, the perfect truth.

We are interweaved beings

Interpolating our individual

Versions of truth as it appears.

In doing so, we refine our versions

In inclusivity and exclusivity,

In trial and error,

Searching and discovering,

Learning and sharing

Our paths in crossing and in sensing,

Accepting and acknowledging

The infinity of truth.

Light is just a while away

Have you felt wronged or slighted in life… don’t despair.
For nature will make it right!
There is always a system of check and balance
For the law of nature aligns it all.

Simply know it may not always be the way you may plan…
For there is a truth beyond yours
That takes much more into account
You could simply be a piece in that puzzle.

So as you face destiny in the eye
As each trying moment unfolds
As you shed those countless tears
Simply know deliverance is near.

Allay your fears
Unfetter your spirit
Bring on the trust
That better lies ahead.

There is much in this self arranging world
We are yet to understand
Endless night wakes up to the light of dawn.
And Hope springs in with the sunshine

Your worst nightmare becomes a distant memory
For times change the order of things
Life moves on as the clocks tick
For Life is circle of days and nights
