Apply Within…
You once told me
You wanted to find
Yourself in the world –
And I told you to
First apply within,
To discover the world
within you.
You once told me
You wanted to save
The world from all its wars –
And I told you to
First save yourself
From the world,
And all the wars
Through.
( words : APPLY WITHIN by Suzy Kassem” )
The songs of trees…
We are all
Trees…
.
The Green
smoke…
Listen to
it’s songs
…your own soul…
All our wisdom
is stored
in the Trees…
~`~ Santosh Kalwar
..Universe in
ecstatic
motion…

Our most intimate
contact with
Nature…

Natya…(dance)
There will be no wisdom, no learning,
no art, nor craft, no device,
nor action that is not found within
natya.
~ ` ~ Sage Bharatha, Natya Shastra
Let go…
When I finally learned to let go of
having to totally control everything
around me and let my life unfold,
I was stunned by the results…
~ ` ~ Geri Larkin
Enduring & Real…
To look for a form or search
for a
sound
is to stumble down the
wrong path .
The wisdom that cannot be thought,
alone reveals that which
is enduring and
real…
~ ` ~ Zen
Sparkle…
I am pretty sure that
when we sparkle
individually, we
Heal + shine
collectively.
~ ` ~ Tanya Markul
Wishing you all a happy &peaceful

Who Am I …?
I am That I am..
I am that which I have created myself to be.
~ ` ~ The Gita
I am the answer you were not
expecting…
I exist
As I am.
That is enough.
~ ` ~ Walt Whitman
Knowing yourself is the beginning of
all
wisdom.
~ ` ~ Aristotle
Many have an Image of me.
Few get the
picture…
I regret opening up to
some people.
They didn’t deserve to
know me like that.
~ ` ~ Gold-Kushkloudz
Wondering on
myself,
by myself,
for myself…
I am a thinker
Not a talker…
I have travelled
through madness
to
find me…
Don’t ask
anyone
but me,
about me…
I am shy at first but…
I do the stupidest random
things when I
get comfortable
with someone…
I
hate being
Shy…
Never have I dealt with
anything more
difficult than my
own soul…
You don’t know me…
I put back my pieces,
differently.
( words: Internet )
Heart seeks…
From the clamor of crowds I flee,
my heart seeks
The kind of silence that would
mesmerize speech itself.
~ ` ~ An Urdu poem
To heal…
Connect with nature..”silence the mind”
&the soul will know what to do
to heal itself…
The soul always knows what to do
to heal itself. The challenge is to silence the mind.
~ ` ~ Caroline myss
Healing doesn’t mean the damage never
existed.
It means the damage no longer controls
our lives.
~ ` ~ Akshay Dubey
Healing yourself is connected
with healing
others.
~ ` ~ Yoko Ono
Anything covered up
won’t get
healed…
It has been said “time heals “all wounds.
I do not agree.The wounds remain.
In time , the mind , protecting the sanity , covers
them with scar tissue & the pain lessens.
but it is never gone.
~ ` ~ Rose Kennedy
As soon as healing takes place.
go out & heal somebody else.
~ ` ~ Maya Angelou
Mourning is love with
no place to go…
We do not heal the past by dwelling
there; we heal the past by living fully
in the present.
~ ` ~ Marianne Williamson
some days the memories still
knock the wind out of
me…
Not all scars show
not all wounds heal
sometimes you can’t
always see the pain’
someone else feels…
Your own healing is a powerful
contribution to the healing of
everyone…
When you can tell your story &
it doesn’t make you cry, you
know you have healed…
They say time heals all wounds , but
that presumes the source of the
grief is finite.
~ ` ~ Cassandra Clare
Sometimes your heart needs
more time to accept what
your mind already knows…
A Seeker…
I was a terrible believer in things, but I was also a terrible non- believer.
in things.
I was as searching as I was sceptical.
I didn’t know where to put my faith, or if there was such a place,
or even precisely what the faith meant ,
in all its complexity.
Everything seemed to be possibly potent and possibly fake.
” YOU ARE A SEEKER ” …..My mother said…
~ ` ~ Cheryl Strayed
Day will break…
Let me not grope in vain in the dark
but keep my mind still in the faith
that the day will break
and the truth will appear
in it’s simplicity.
~~Rabindranath Tagore
