The reason to heal.

There is a reason we need healing. This reason is deeply personal to each of us. Some want it for the body. Some want it for the mind. But, everyone wants to feel whole. Like there is nothing missing in who we believe and feel is ‘me’. For decades, I wanted healing for my anxietyContinueContinue reading “The reason to heal.”

❤️ I am only here to be truly helpful❤️

From the past few years the role of a seeker has been the predominant identity I wear in front of the world. Does this mean I am an enlightened one? Far from it! People usually get on the path when they battle some inner demon or physical challenge. Anxiety has been my bane – IContinueContinue reading “❤️ I am only here to be truly helpful❤️”

The write path to healing

As someone who has struggled with fears and anxieties all her life, writing has been a tool I have turned to time and again. While I once used it for stres relief, over the last decade I have seen its power as a a very powerful healing activity for the body, mind and soul.

What role are you wearing today?

There was a time I wore my identities very tightly around me. Some of them were very essential for my protection and state of well-being. Daughter, sister, wife, daughter-in-law…these were vital ones. Much needed for self-preservation, safety and security. In midst of this, I tried that of a dancer. It gave me a sense ofContinueContinue reading “What role are you wearing today?”

Lesson 19: I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my thoughts.

Staring at the TV screen, I asked myself if this was what I had intended. I had not. Violence was not in my mind when I had made the speech on campus. The phone rang again. Picking it up, I turned off the vibration notification. I didn’t want to speak to anyone. Looking around, IContinueContinue reading “Lesson 19: I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my thoughts.”

Enlightened Activism

This came just as I was redoing this website, creating Conscious Child Project , and as I was trying to re-define what exactly is it that I do. What is the role of an individual on a spiritual path when it comes to the world. I love this article on Enlightened Activism by Byron Katie, a trulyContinueContinue reading “Enlightened Activism”

Wasting my day

The first thing that someone usually asks when they meet you is, how are you? This is usually followed by – what are you doing lately ? Increasingly, I find that this is a difficult question to respond to. Questions such as why are you so busy and what do you do for a livingContinueContinue reading “Wasting my day”

Leaving myself

I fall a flower on its way to god’s feet empty of desires devoid of defenses willing to be adorned or trodden over The mind is shedding its person leaving behind a being at once nothing and all-encompassing Where there was once fear now lives joy waiting to play in light bask in the glowContinueContinue reading “Leaving myself”

Unfocus

Since last Sunday’s session with GD, my spiritual teacher, I have found a cue-word to re-connect with awareness and reset the mind. The word is Unfocus. At the session we spoke about how the things we view as pleasure are the very things that create our pain. Then we spoke about awareness and staying inContinueContinue reading “Unfocus”

Building our own pyramids

I wrote this sometime in August, saved it as a draft and forgot about it. Then in the ensuing three months, I went on to bury myself inside a pyramid and let myself suffocate. Today reading this, I realized that most of us are wise to our weaknesses and yet, we choose to indulge it,ContinueContinue reading “Building our own pyramids”
