A glorious decade with the Art of Living

The air has never been so fresh for me to breathe

I have all the tools to empower myself and fulfill my needs

The Art of Living has enriched me with a new lease of life

The same situations, I see in a new light

If not for this, I would have by now been rotten

Peace and happiness, for sure forgotten

A rebirth and a second chance at life, I get

Living life in the present, I will not forget

This grace, inner-expansion and freedom give me a high

For receiving all this abundance, I will not ask why

I know I’m the chosen one and here for a higher purpose

Guided by the divine with the highest purpose

Throwing away all the baggage of the past

Re-starting again and again and again…at-last!!!

Not getting caught in the mental chatter

Focusing on things that really matter

The Art of Living programs make you the way

God intended to make man (or woman)

Humility, happiness and gratefulness become your core

You appreciate life and lives attached, more and more

The Art of Living, guides and gives you a lot

Life is a celebration, believe it or not

It makes you stronger and a true achiever

And most importantly, a giver and a believer

This year marks a decade of my association with The Art of Living.  

I feel on top of the world. ☺

This post is a result of my experience in the DSN Program (a highly transformational course offered by the Art of Living) with Anand Rajendran Ji in March 2017.

An Ode to Silence

Silence is the song of the soul

What seems a gracious void, 

 makes you feel whole

Au revoir, unwanted impressions

the mind, a junkyard no more

The life force, an eagle, in its upward soar

Positivity, galore

Silence is the celebration of the Self

You are The Source

The all prevailing life force

Silence is total rest

A little time to accept the worldly pests

A fiesta, when we are put to test

Producing brave beings, whilst leaving the nest

Tears roll down the cheeks

Doesn’t mean you are weak

The heart brims with joy

Gratefulness becomes your inherent nature

Strong under cover, yeah! that's our stature

Karma cleansing, in progress 

So long - farewell, depression & stress

The mind is freed from its own mess

What follows is evidently success

Silence is the journey from

the finite to the infinite

from nothingness you gain everything

Meditation is the best mid-day meal

The end of silence, instills zeal

Repose in yourself, to heal

Worries et all, for you to seal

Consider this a spiritual deal

This post is a resultant of my experience at the Art of Silence Program / Part II Course offered by the Art of Living
