Dear Friends
New Year 2025, it has been a while since I reflected or posted anything. Knowledge without wisdom is like empty bottle with no water to quench thirst. We might now need wisdom more than ever, and let’s contemplate on that as we embark on the journey of self discovery for years to come. Sri Saraswati plays Veena harmoniously beautiful music emanates the spaciousness around us due to the Goddess ability and skillful means with how She plays. That skillful capability is achieved through constant practice, being always watchful which brings me to the topic of being Mindful. We hear a lot about mindfulness today, but what does it really mean ?. It is first and foremost a practice of balance, on all levels physical and mental. Buddha once gave a simile of a Vena with strings that are to tight or too loose either of those will not produce harmonious music. Each step of the way in this journey requires the right amount of balance in our thoughts and actions. Sri Saraswati embodies that lesson. Enjoy your practice of watchful living and observing.
