~naturally laid~

-
When i happened to be in one of the posh resorts, walking down the entire property just on the seashore left me wondering the human mind's planning as against the naturally laid ocean.

There wasnt tiny corner that was messed up or ill laid, right from pathways, cottages, garden, the spa etc. beautifully and elegantly enhanced by the choicest of decors, all stood bright and beautiful. Impeccably clean, whether it is the pool or the surrounding. A dedicated team that works round the clock to maintain the ambience. This is oneside.

Reaching the seashore and watching the vastness of the ocean --oh, my! None to be found working even for a while, yet so clean naturally. Few huge rocks that enhance the prevailing beauty stand there tall too. The waves, the sand, the rocks and the sky --all in tune with no planning or no manning.

Wow!Pampered in luxury for the body on oneside of the space and nourishment to the mind to connect to one's own self, all that one has to is just be!

Wherever one is, it is vital to remain connected and not get lost in luxury or choose to avoid luxury. There is nothing for or against to be natural. It all depends on the naturally laid self amidst the all pervading Divinity.

Wow Merging Point, nicely said. Your attention to details is amazing, and I love the way you described both. I never been to a resort, never really enjoy the prefect setting, but I always enjoyed perfect nature. Thanks for sharing. Anna :)

Thanks for your comments Swahilya!
Manning is guarding, no manning is Godliness!

Perfect -- reminds me of the recent session that i had attended by The Master.
connecting to the perfect lets us explore the imperfect as it is to complete the cycle.
Thankyou Anna!Hope you are catching up with the new life.

~ "Adapt Tune" ~

An insight into a dance competition show. Unlike the regular performance where a participant proves his dancing skills to a song selected and well trained for it, here he is expected to dance to the unexpected tunes. The DJ on the set is the creator of the tunes for that moment. The participant on the floor is evaluated as to how well his performance is tuned in to the unexpected rhythms. "Expect the unexpected" and tune in to be your own self. Thats when the best of performance is unfolded. You dont perform but you just tune in to the rhythms. There is a subtle and yet a vital difference that distinguishes you from the rest. The sense organ, ear, lets the listening happen. The mind accepts the tune and the body adapts to the tune and thats what is called the dance. Firstly, one needs to be well equipped with the skills and thats what is called confidence. Without a proper knowledge and practice of the skill, one would only turn out to be a laughing stock on the floor. Once t

Let us a take a look at the transformation of a simple metal plate into a knife. The metal plate when processed through various stages gets shaped into a sharp instrument used primarily for cutting etc. Have you noticed, the process doesn't get completed in just sharpening the blade. It takes a complete shape only when a wooden handle is provided on one end. The one edge of the sharpened blade gets fixed into the wooden case, thereby, providing strong and comfortable access to the usage of the instrument. Left without a wooden case to hold, the blade still remains a sharpened tool but dangerous even to the user. Try holding a sharpened blade and make use of it. May be, your hands would bleed first even before making use of it. When looking at the mind, intellect and its connectivity to the Self, i felt it is easier to understand and relate it with the example of the knife. Intellect, as a sharpened blade is essential to discriminate, execute. It becomes a dangerous tool only when i

Eyes chose to embrace gently simply to let me dwell deep within Surging up like a lightening Stillness bestowed to realize The silence thats within and without Even while the sense chose To fill the ear with Divineful music Aware to the aliveness All alone in meditativeness To express the effects In words as here can the cause be contained In words of limitedness Bow down in grateful silence My own Beloved source...
