Reverence

This is a place in India.. high above the town of Rishikesh.. I would go early in the morning ..bring a thermos of chi and chipati … stay for awhile untill the crowds stated to show up.. A good hour with me and the tree.. She was a grand tree in her strong yet delicate manor..

    i stayed here in this place you show for quite some time…looking, seeing and feeling.

    yoga relaxes me and reduces stress… i am learning to be a student in the practice. a vegetarian diet is healthier for me…life is more clear as i take time to meditate…. i exercise daily, and i feel that sharing my life with friends and chosen family in deep and meaningful ways clears my emotional and psychological well being.
    so much of your work takes me to this place in my mind…thank you…i love this tree and the feeling…xoxo terri

    Often wonder about meditation and not thinking. I think there are great aspects to spaces and refreshing. oneself. However I think for life to truly be at peace people need to find a way to be true to themselves either in a meditation space or in the middle of a busy city street. In order to do this I believe we need to acknowledge what we are feeling and experiencing and use clear thought to understand and co create with our hearts.

  • linaji replied

    Hi Tony, you know I just meditate for 20 min each AM. I was told this by my modern masters of the Law of Attraction,, just to get my vibration aligned to the space of the now, it opens me up to well, join a RB site and meet wonderful people wanting to do just what you stated, co-create with our hearts.. beautiful

    How about cropping it so it’s just the tree?

  • linaji replied

    I shall try that friend!

  • fuzonlab

    it is a fantasy shot… majestic high place for the tree… looks as if the tree has gradually climbed up with experience of ages and have now been on top of the world… it somehow depicts an “experience” figure to me… and the one who rises thru ranks with own inner strengths…

    as far as cpcphoto’s comment goes… I have a say on it… if allowed to… :-)
    Cropping for only tree would make it interesting from a painting-like art pice point-of-view… but from photography point-of-view… this is perfect… the background gives a sense of being at a higher space… as if your sipirit and your soul has been so high that your nirvana is in sight now…

  • linaji replied

    you are indeed the spirit of that tree my friend.. when I looked at this tree and saw.. what you describe as experience.. strength.. it is the outside framing of the world that makes this so,.I could not crop even to see if it were so.. You, My friend, are a delight!

    Hey Linaji… have you listened to a music track called “A Journey to India” from the album “Secrets of Life” by “Karunesh”????

    I listened to it thrice while looking at this picture of yours…. and let me tell you i just have been to that very place as a soul now…

    if you haven’t listened to it and want to have it… do let me know… i would share it with you… this picture and the soundtrack… the combo puts you into another world… world of peace…

  • linaji

    linaji

    I would love to hear this music.. I have listened before to Karunesh.. and this would be lovely!

  • fuzonlab

    fuzonlab

    kindly let me know where shall i share it with you… :-)

    Such a beautiful contradiction.This wonderfully serene place overlooking the hustle and bustle of the city. I especially like the balance of the tree with the city below. Great shot.

    Wow…...................

    Look at the trees, look at the birds, look at the clouds, look at the stars… and if you have eyes you will be able to see that the whole existence is joyful. Everything is simply happy. Trees are happy for no reason; they are not going to become prime ministers or presidents and they are not going to become rich and they will never have any bank balance. Look at the flowers – for no reason. It is simply unbelievable how happy flowers are. ~Osho
