LIFE is a series of breaths... Punctuated with experiences to draw our GRATITUDE to Breath

Life brings to you a spectacular feast of every emotion that you MUST experience and through it all, be able to take a DEEP breath and withdraw from the CIRCUMSTANCE and Truly BE in ACCEPTANCE of the PRESENT MOMENT.

I was filled with a lot of AWESOME thoughts as I heard EVERY media CHANNEL draw to the ATTENTION of India, the fact that CRICKETerrs that they WORSHIPPED were truly a SHAME to the COUNTRY… It amazes me, to see such CLARITY of THOUGHT and POWER of AUTHORITATIVE ANGER, as they continued to draw parallels to other forms of sport. It is so easy to draw into their emotion and sway the NATIONAL SENTIMENT of the WEAK In EMOTION to ANGER. Anger, we’ve known what it does!!

It is AMAZING that SACHIN decides NOT TO PLAY FOR INDIA at the T20 WC and that is RESPECT. Sehwag’s INJURY is the robe an EXPECTANT father wears to steer clear from the WC. ROBIN UTHAPPA is side tracked for reasons best known to LEAST ;) Dinesh Kartik still doesn’t understand the REAL reason why he isn’t GIVEN DUE respect… He hasn’t learnt to GIVE DUE RESPECT… especially to juniors on the field. Ashish Nehra’s body language says… I STILL NEED TO PROVE MYSELF. Bhajji, well, the brilliance of you is when you are charged up… excited and are your natural self… Pressure has never been your face. You see GAUTAM GAMBHIR, someone who I have a lot of respect for as a batsman and a captain (DD) who was now suddenly having to report to MS and be told what to do… Heck NO… why should I be taking anything seriously, I’ve been CAPTAIN and I KNOW!!! and you know what Gautam it SHOWS!! Yusuf, brilliant as you are, the fact still remains that you just ARE, you need to stand out among EQUALS to truly shine out, you have the talent! For the first time, it was evident that Murali Vijay was left to himself in his first international outing, was he going to do well… na na na… there wasn’t a chance in hell… sadly, his only mistake… CSK boy ;) thankfully.., you see RAINA… Who really is INDIA’s brightest STAR right now, for the fact that he is there to ENJOY his game… isn’t letting down the country by still thinking CSK.

Personally I would be horrified to be Dhoni in this scenario… It is evident, if an outsider can draw these vibes, the CAPTAIN is living them with his team. The team is living these thoughts in their minds. While Dhoni, puts on a very brave face and gives the media enough to take his ass for the next 7 days if not more! When I look at that brilliant smile and brave words to try and save face in his very casual matter of fact way. I’m drawn to seeing this picture, which, if it HORRIFIES me to IMAGINE… what must it be like for him to deal with. He is dealing with EGO’s that are present and EGO’s that are OMNIPRESENT.

In each of the lives this situation has reached, touched, affected… REMEMBER… this is JUST A PUNCTUATION… the joy of this LIFE is to draw into your experience GRATITUDE for this MOMENT. For the LOSS will teach you more about THE DRAW and yourself, than JUST VICTORY ever can.

Take a little while to SLOW down and THINK… REMEMBER to REMEMBER the JOY of WHO YOU REALLY ARE!

I guess the important questions to ask ourselves

Are these the PUNCTUATIONS of the MEDIA in the LIFE of A SPORTSMAN? Is a LOSS a PUNCTUATION on them as people? What are the PUNCTUATIONS I’ve created in my own life that are having a SIMILAR IMPACT on MY LIFE?

In Gratitude to ALL THAT IS for ALL THAT IS!

The Manifesting Way of Life

Idle thoughts maketh for great writing.

In my thoughts, there is a resurgent belief, EVERYTHING does happen for a reason… and the reason doesn’t always present itself in the present. Its like a surprise waiting to be discovered. A quick retrospect and I realise the power of idle thoughts, each of them have had the pleasure of manifesting in different degrees. These are the ones I’ve noticed.

The power of manifesting is when you have a thought, don’t follow through and then you hear the words ‘I TOLD YOU SO” so loud in your head that you are able to remember the specific moment, nothing and the one prompt you got, turned a deaf ear and then FORGOT!!

I had a moment like that this morning, am so excited about the learning. 2 days ago, I found my ipod connector on mum’s rack, super happy, though I was in the middle of looking for someone else, I kept it back somewhere there. I heard prompt, “keep it safely or you won’t be able to find it when you need”. Busy Dee that I am, I brushed away the thought to focus on what I was looking for then. For the last couple of hours I’ve been searching for the freaking connector and you guessed it… for the love of all the memory in the universe, this one eludes me. Now, all that is doing the rounds of my head… “I TOLD YOU SO!!!”

This is one of the smaller incidents, maybe its meant to be shared, a brilliant example of how we should follow the prompts!! Maybe an even greater learning, that I have a connect with guides at every moment of my day, just that more often than not, I turn a deaf ear to their constant chatter.

In meditation one day, I wrote the entire script of a conversation that came true 2 months later and changed the course of my life. The trill of manifestations, especially the ones you remember are a clear sign of the power of the mind in creating the reality you live.

Are there times that this process is scary… well YES!!! There are times when you receive messages that aren’t too exciting or you manage to say something you didn’t mean and the fear of manifestation brings it into reality. Its funny though, a couple of weeks back, I sensed a friend getting too overbearing, I didn’t seem to enjoy their company, it hurt to tell them to scoot off, at the same time, I knew something wasn’t right at all. It was the vibrations I picked up in their presence which seemed to weigh down on my energies. While I didn’t want them around, there wasn’t a nice way to say it. There is NEVER a nice way to say oUTA HERE!! In the week that followed, they stopped calling or asking if they could come over, its like they eased out, wanted their space. While, first finding out that they were infact behaving like SHIT, did hurt, then the voice within said, “Happy Manifesting”. Like a flash, the thoughts of their last visit flashed and I knew the source. Amazing isn’t it! without saying a word a lot simply happened and YES it was a manifestation of my thought… without any provocation from me, the hurt feelings don’t exist, for there is no memory to trigger it! Loving the manifesting!!!

The power of BEING AWARE OF MANIFESTATIONS also brings with it, huge responsibility. There is an immediate need to EDIT thoughts before the set into motion. It is an auto move to say the right things, feel the right emotions, take control of immediate thoughts. Is it easy to always stay tuned… NO… Each time you pin point the exact moment of the shift and breathe yourself back into the awareness of the present moment, you conquer another realm of learning to lean how to manifest. Another very important part in manifesting, is to be AWARE of emotions all around you, especially the emotions that come from people whom you truly truly trust. They have the power to influence your awareness. These challenges apart, manifesting is a cake walk.

Just as I decided to end this note, another thought comes my way… “Had you found the connector, you wouldn’t have been blogging”… the voice fades out… time for me find the connector and I can promise you, it will find me… and I shall feel silly, for some thought would’ve prompted me to go there… before this :))

Happy Manifesting!!
