Trees
The Trees I See….. When I was a little girl, I would often go for long walks with my Nanaji. I remember looking at trees and imagining that they were actually beings who had dived headfirst into Mother Earth, holding on to her tightly, with their legs sticking up in the air! And from those…
Lens
Everything that the universe brings into our lives is actually a gift, provided we are looking through the lens that allows us to recognize it as such.We experience life through many different lenses, the main ones at either end of the spectrum being fear and love, and everything in between.And so, the lens we choose…
Silence
Why are we so afraid of silence?Why must we fill up silence with incessant talking? Talking at each other, talking over each other, not pausing to listen, not even pausing to breathe comfortably between words.Are words the only way to establish a bridge between us?I have this beautiful urge to have a silent gathering.

Places where the light of consciousness and attention has not yet shone upon the trauma, the hurt, the fear, hidden in the deeper spaces…
Harmony
Thought we were meant to read the same book….and so we tried….over and over ….tried to match the pace so we could turn the pages at the same time. Slowing down….hurrying through…the words made little sense. Then finally, when it hurt too much to struggle through what we thought should be smooth, one by one…
The Dreamer awakening
“Outside, the Storm Rages. Inside, a Single Drop Fell.” I underlined this as soon as I read it in the book ” A cup of Zen ” by Kai Tsukimi. Some words immediately have a profound impact and reach your heart.I used to get drawn into every drama that presented itself on my life screen,…
