Death

The D word is dreaded and feared by most! What comes after death? The unknown.....is that what most of us are frightened about.... or do we cling on to relationships and possessions in fear of giving up and being separated from the familiar!

The body dies.....the limitless spirit lives on!

In life, none of us know what tomorrow or the next moment will bring.......do our relationships and possessions ...allay this fear of the unknown? Do we fear or love life?

What happens after death is a mystery ......just as life is...

Its our call how we choose to hold it in our consciousness.

On a separate note... someone very dear to me passed away recently and... Death of a loved one was such a stark reminder to live life, imbibe its fragrance and share it with others rather than get caught up and lost in our illusionary self drama's.

Love & Attachment

When we love we generally get attached. Love in its purest form has no attachments. Here the struggle begins....

Attachment comes from the presence of "I". As long as the "I" exists .....attachment persists. Attachment itself is an illusion. We believe we are attached .....so we create that as reality!

Why do we like to weigh ourselves down with attachment? Does being attached give us a sense of security, a sense of belonging and ownership ... does it make us possessive and controlling?

We create the attachment in our minds....

Follow nature and the rhythm of the universe....love freely and be free!

Love

 To love freely is a gift we have all been blessed with ..... and there is an infinite source of love. 

Loving someone is one of the greatest feelings of all.....it cannot truly be expressed in words. It makes us feel vulnerable, spontaneous, free, courageous and totally alive!  That's what we are here for.... to love and experience love!

Some are too scared to express their love, some have been hurt before and may be fearful to love again or some are afraid of being rebuffed!

No matter how joyful or painful love and its effects are..... it is the elixir of life!

Lets never deny ourselves of it...open your heart .... and tell the people that matter that you love them!!

Am I worthy?

This is one of our biggest questions  ....We spend most of our lives trying to get external confirmation to increase our self worth.

The external is required, to prove to ourselves that we are worthy, as we are not fully in touch with our true self. There are various layers and memories that have accumulated and need to be cleared.

The external ... be it money, power, recognition ( while useful) are temporary fixes as we know.

The "I am worthy" tune only plays uninterrupted when its switched on from within.

Whats stops us from playing this permanently? Our mind and our ego......

Tune in....brave one...and surrender. You truly are the best!!

Emptiness

We are constantly trying to fill or overfill our bucket. Why are we scared of empty spaces or emptiness?

Its from this emptiness that we get clarity and our true self is revealed. Are we scared and fearful of discovering our own truth?

The void is all powerful, its the space where we get inspiration from the divine and where we rejuvenate and blossom. As a daily practice we should clear all that is outstanding in our minds.

We feel uncomfortable with the emptiness ...its all about worthiness.....if I am occupied I feel worthy and if I am empty ...there is a fear of losing my self worth...or do I feel worthless? As a nervous reaction we fill ourselves up with unnecessary thoughts.

Go through this discomfort and allow yourself to step into the unknown and experience your real power!

Moving on...

Nothing is permanent ....everything changes every moment.

Why do we find it difficult to move on from situations, places, people?

Its attachment....even in situations where the experience is not pleasant. There's also a stuckness that comes from not accepting what we are meant to experience from a particular situation. We try to recreate the past and try to fool ourselves that it'll come back.

Moving on is the nature of the universe. When the vibrations change.....you feel it ( accepting it and acting upon it is a different matter...the struggle begins).... its time to make the shift.

Moving on is not giving up or abandoning ...its clearing...to enable and welcome the new!

Nurturing

All beings thrive when nurtured.  From toddlers to the elderly - we never grow out of the need of being nurtured.... enveloped in warmth, love and reassured.

Relationships that aren't nurtured ...start fraying... nurturing is food to the soul!

We musn't forget that the strong and the independent also need nurturing ....probably more than the others.

Reach out with a hug ... and remember nurture yourself too!
