Dare To Be

You ask questions

that you already know

the answers to.

Again and again.

Hoping to confirm

the way to yourself   

And that, its all right.

Dare to be all that

you know you actually are.

Live life love life

In it, you will find answers 

And yourself again.

Savvy

A few reflections…

The Echo: What is one question you find yourself asking others repeatedly, even though deep down you already know the answer?

The Permission: What are you waiting to hear when you seek external validation? What changes if you give that exact permission to yourself today?

The Dare: What does “daring to be all that you know you actually are” look like for you in this current chapter of your life?

What happens in space, stays in space.

​Space…

is what I make of it.

​Space allows,

and restrains

all at once.

In every now,

space is filled with infinite possibilities.

​Abundance.

Potential.

All truths,

as I perceive them in space.

​Space is fluid.

Space is alive.

​Space…

is what you make of it.

​What you sense in space,

stays in space.

What happens in space,

stays in space.

​Space is wonder.

An expansive phenomenon.

​The feeling of space

for you,

for me

is deeply different.

So is its need.

​Is there a divide at all

between physics and metaphysics?

Aren’t they interwoven,

deeply interconnected?

​It is only a question

of how open we are

to understanding space,

and the possibilities

in its potential.

​It is all

In, around,

and beyond.

The Magic of Life & Living

Never heard of the word  Solecism,
until I looked it up…
But now I understand it

SOLECISM : It’s a part of life..
In the trial and errors
Life is threading through mapping its way quite like, how the neural connectomes do.

Through the thick & thin, we pattern our way like the coarse calico fur

Often clinging to the old receidovous ways of our hearts ,

Forging our paths in memory pushing us through

In part as a reminder to evolve for the better.

And in part reminiscences in the rare glimpses of lifetimes lived.

We realize the truth of our being.
As we continue to breathe and perform on this stage of life…

As it reveals itself .

The magic of life, is in the living.

Between the lashes

Between the lashes

There is the flame

Of the spirit burning bright

There is a window of the soul

Seeing in the envisioning 

Of the betwixt & beyond

Both inside & outside

And making sense of it all.

The lashes are but a curtain

To open up to the wonders of the world…

For between the  blink of the lashes

Lies the magic of sight.

Form & the Formless

Art by Savvy Raj

Is the form you see
Exactly the form I see
Perhaps they differ
In the way we choose to interpret.

Is form the mark of reality
Does being formless makes it unreal
Is form the contention
To know the real and unreal.

Forms are shaped by intentions
In dedication & deliberation.
For forms become fleeting memories
Perishing in the sands of time.

While the formless evolves in the heart
Holding up to unfathomable faith
They may live on in the silent knowing
Of unspoken trust in the being.

Discernment of the forms
In the inner recesses of the heart and the mind
Waltzes the consciousness of the being
In States of knowing ,of the truth of light

A light of wisdom
That takes many forms
Million times over
To show the path of truth.

The path is lit
As the steps are taken
The forms manifest in the interactions
Of vibrations in resonance.

Between these Illuminating illusions
Of the form and formless
What is real and unreal
All are just reflections in the dimensions.

In the beam of even one moment of truth
Is the convergence of envisioning
Forms and formless become one
Conveying the message safely home.

On Poets & poetry

A slice of life
Poets may carve with words…
Emerging from life experiences
Lived or observed.
Poets may offer fresh perspectives Embedded in words in a flow…

In Poets, empathy makes you sense and relate with compassion, It makes you feel one with another.
Yet the poet is strategic as to be a poem the verses need to be well thought as much as well felt, as words manage to touch another soul in inexplicable ways.

Every poet balances the flow uniquely…

What are your thoughts on the above?

And how can empathy connect with poetry?

Then & Now

Then and now

Then I had manicured hands

Fingers always maintained

With perfectly painted nails 💅

Now I like them as they are

Functional and neatly cut.

Then I wore high heels

To make me feel more stylish

Now I have a style I call my own

High heels I no longer need or buy.

Then I was yet to experience life

Too sensitive to a fault…

Now I have come of my own

Upholding my health over stressors

Emboldened enough to stand by me.

And today, another solar cycle older

Wiser or not is left for you to say,

But this I know from living

Half way and more in life.

No matter the then & now

What is, is what matters.

In you, is what you need.

Life is what you make of it.

Every now is precious enough  to fill it with gratitude.

Coherence

A painting by Savvy Raj

When energy aligns

Syncing in synchrony

There is a dance of coherence

Resonance occurs

In these changes

No matter the circumstances

No matter the challenges

Creating connections

Building bridges 

Narrowing gaps 

In understanding

Bettering communication

Everything  comes together

And begins to make sense.

Awaken

You awaken

When you are ready to release

That which holds you back.

In acknowledging

Is the allowing 

Of new possibilities

And sense the light within.

Every once in a while

It’s good to unshackle

Simply ask your self

What am I holding back?

Balmy weather

It’s balmy weather
It’s early morning
The sun is moving
In and out of the trees
Traveling with me
As I am walking…
The chirping birds
Awakening the world
With hope fulness
The wind is resting
Perhaps still to awaken
The clouds are clearing
Heralding the light
In the mighty tree
A few yards from me
I see a beautiful vision… Cont’d

What is it that I see?

Would you like to continue from here…?

BUILD BRIDGES

Time evolves one and all,come what may

Yesterday’s mountains have become paths today

Love of life will show the way

As you keep building bridges not walls I say.

On Spirituality

You can’t talk Spirituality
You got to live it.
Often when life takes you far
Far away from it…


You got to know
The divine that you seek
Is with you in every moment
Your actions thoughts and words
Decides the distance between
You and your spiritual self.

On Poetry

Poetry is often an emotional journey
of feeling sensing and sharing
through the words
There is a lot of inextricable emotions
embedded along these lines
on the way of life and living.

Heal as you write

Poetry is a brilliant trickster
As much a true friend
For it masks the truth cleverly in words
As much as it heals away in the expressions.


In the letting go of  dense emotions
Is the channeling towards balance
To the lightness of being
Where there is space created
In between thoughts and actions
For more cathartic connections.

Poetry revives the spirit of the soul
Through soulful words that flow
Out of nowhere explicable
For it has a purpose of its own
In trust know, that it finds itself
The path its meant to be.

Be it poetry or prose, fiction or non fiction, words can be the gamechanger.

How many of you writers agree?
