Here’s an interesting way to look at it…

… it is almost working up the thought muscles as I write this piece. When a new thought decides to take centre stage and all that you can really do is write it soon enough not to lose it… and share it soon enough so other’s can use it!! Winking smile

I always wondered why I was chosen to be born into a family which has seen all shades of relationships… my memories go way back to the time when I was 3 years old… size of body seems to have some relationship with the size of memory Winking smile. With all the OH SO NOT DESIRABLE circumstances we’ve been through … our smiles are our way of saying “thank you God for the power to overcome and excel in your name”

Gratitude to ALL THAT IS for ALL THAT IS!!

Here’s what my awareness has prompted me to understand from my past… my Gratitude to the knowing… allowing… accepting and manifesting the change it brings… within me… and around me!!

  • My Gratitude to their dream of independence… Today we are 3 independent women living lives that would’ve been the three possible routes of living their own… each one of us is a reflective of decisions they took… and the results thereof!
  • Gratitude to their talents… Today each of my talents has a root in their WANTS as young people. I have the joy of passion towards events from my father and the brilliance of natural talents in the arts from my mother and from both of them, a heartfelt connection and appreciation for my grand parents who have added to the flavour of completing me spiritually.
  • Gratitude to their lives… Today I have learnt to deal with life one baby step at a time… prompted by an internal need for evolving into a complete me, they always wished they could be.
  • Gratitude to their dream of health. Today I find new ways to be healthy spiritually that my spiritual health may energise my physical health and in turn radiate into my conscious life on this earth.
  • Gratitude to their failures. Today I’ve learnt to tap into the inner knowing of the way I feel and and have learnt to use it to sustain myself. It is also essential to understand that I have evolved from the awareness of failure as I hear it from them and graduate to the awareness of success, by following my instinct, aware, that my EGO will play spoilt sport, since the knowledge I received from my DNA is of the awareness of lack.
  • Gratitude to their quest for healing their own lives. Today I find myself in the centre of magnetising the healing I need to clear history and the additional resources I need to extend this healing around me. That my own children may evolve from this point onward.
  • Gratitude to their CONFIDENCE in themselves. Today I have learnt to take a stand in awareness of my inner quest for being, un-phased by the circumstantial evidence of life as I know it… that comes from their confidently knowing that inner strength is what got them through to the outer strength to follow through on their inner knowing. I have learnt that irrespective of the circumstances presented to me, the truth of being is greater than what we can see if and only if we learn to focus beyond it!
  • Gratitude to them separating. Today, we’ve had the joy of experiencing them in totality, without any need for us to SIMPLY accept what we’re told to believe. We are able to take a simple situation and read between the lines, learn from it and release the circumstance and live the lesson it presents.
  • Gratitude to their belief. Both my parents are truly the two poles of creation… so distinctly different in their approach to life and to life’s lessons… and as an evolved DNA of their coming together, the three of us are equally poles apart in our understanding and living of our lives.

I could write a book on the subject with the knowledge I’ve drawn through this knowing… It is also a wonderful reason for each of us to evaluate our lives with respect to the DNA we represent…

Respect your parents, love them, understand them, they are the foundation thought of your own personal evolution… Understand them better that you may begin to understand yourselves better and live from a point of Gratitude, in the knowing that you’re greatest evolution and acceptance of yourself comes from KNOWING, ALLOWING and ACCEPTING the DNA you’ve evolved from!

In Gratitude to ALL THAT IS for ALL THAT IS for a new, more complete experience of ME through the awareness of both my connection and blocks with my parents, whom I chose to be born to… with the knowing that I am an evolved vibration of their thought.

Begin a new relationship with your parents today!!!

Rocks & Stars : Lalit Modi

I’m not too sure the BCCI will allow Lalit Modi to win this battle or if they’ll ever admit that he’s a genius, especially since they’re going all out to bury him live, if possible. I do not know whether or not Lalit Modi has made mistakes he should regret or admit. Or if he is as innocent as he’s hoping for the world to see through this interview!!!

What I know for sure is that there is much to be learnt about passion from this man. Immaterial of what the truth maybe, what allegations get proven and what makes Lalit Modi trip on his own shoe lace… He has created what was once a dream into a brand we all know as the IPL. And immaterial of whether or not he’s at the helm of affairs, we all know that IPL, will never be spoken of without a mention of Lalit Modi!!

While watching the Lalit Modi interview, a few striking thoughts emerge…

 

Lalit Modi, manages to say it like he wants to and no matter how straight faced and unemotional Mihir Bose is, it is evident that Lalit has orchestrated a brilliant conversation to get his side of the story to the larger audience. He understands the ways of the media well, and knows how best to use it!

The other part of the interview that made smile and I agree with, is that he should’ve ideally been given a Bharat Ratna for the IPL. Created from a pool of private investors and executed to near perfection on a national scale for a 3 years in succession. This man didn’t even flinch when he had to move the mega event to South Africa over a period of 21 days!!!

His self confidence, which can more often than not sounds absolutely obnoxious is a “MUST LEARN FROM”, he was always cued in on the tiny details and I guess that is where his real power lies!!

From the media point of view… they picked up the coverage and broadcasted it for the TRP’s… didn’t realise that Lalit Modi has orchestrated a brilliant PR move, to force the media to cover his story the way he wants it to without the authority to edit or tamper HIS STORY. He sure does know how to work out details in his favour without having to compromise on content!!! Don’t be too surprised if you see more such moves in the future by other people who want to tell their story unedited!!

I also found a simple truth in the fact that when you’re selling an impossible dream, only those who are closest to you will bet on you to deliver, the rest of the world is cruel. When the concept isn’t your own, it is so easy to break it up and crush the conceptual thought. It is mastery and practice that makes your confidence levels rise to a phenomenal vibration and confidence to follow through to the last detail on your list without allowing the dream to dissolve into oblivion.

Someday, I wish to work with Lalit Modi, be on his team… learn the art of selling a castle in thin air and making it real for the world to marvel at. The vision lies only with the dreamer and the dreamer the pied piper who leads the vision… remove the dreamer and you’ll be left with details you haven’t conceived and perceptions you have no control over.

It takes courage to stand alone and fight an institution and may I add that Mr. Lalit Modi has in his own way, given us a clear lesson to follow… “Make it happen… it will take three years for people to begin to see your arrogance as a threat Winking smile and by then, you’ve done what you need to make a brand of yourself… that NO ONE CAN EVER TAKE AWAY FROM YOU!
