A Poem on My Life
My Life
I am born to this day; This day to me is born
Full of possibilities, opportunities, joy and happiness
As if for me they are made and for them likewise I
Yes through the day, morn to night
Thoughts run wild - of hurts, of anger, and of guilt
Of all the wrongs as if done to me
And of those as if done by me
Yes through the day, morn to night
Feelings upheaval in me - of hurts, of anger, and of guilt
Caused by wrongs as if done to me
And of those as if done by me
I have learnt to live in the moment
No past, no future to matter
For the past is no more in the present
And the future to the present is yet to be born
No pinning hope, nor wish, nor desire
For when in the moment I live
And also in the moment I think and feel
Full of awareness and full of alertness
There is no trace of hurt left in memory
I learnt the formula of adding age to life
And of adding health and wellness
Keeping doors open for prosperity and
Wealth in to flow
I learnt the secret of liberation and emancipation
Its there to have without much seeking to do
Just by giving up desire and ignorance of what reality is
I learnt too that neither can I love, nor be loved,
All I can do is being loving
So also neither can I care, nor be cared for,
All I can do is being caring
So thus the magic happens for me
For then life becomes just living
Living life full of joy and happiness
And aloneness and solitude becoming full of bliss
I learnt using let go, release and relinquish
Just showing willingness and saying so
make adverse thoughts, feelings and emotions go
I also learnt to love and accept myself as also others
exactly as I am right here and right now as also are they
No matter what flaws have I or they
No matter what imperfections have I or they
Using this healing balm morn, afternoon and night
Life has become blissful, living happy and joyful
Thus adding age to life and knowing there is enough
and more with me and around
Yes I started late. Not too late.
Yes I started late, as yet I'm here to stay for long.
Amen

The role of anchoring in healthy living
Anchor belongs to the ship. It is an aid to the ship. It helps the ship to remain stable as and when it encounters rough weather or choppy seas. What relevance can this metaphor of anchor have to healthy successful living.
In the very early years of a child's life it identifies itself as being related to its mother. Later to its father. Still later to other members of the family. As individual grows in age the relating grows to persons across the globe. How does this child identify itself. When asked who are you?
The child looks at its mother and says: "I am my mothers child." That is the identity. We are committed in fidelity to our core identity. That connectivity to our core identity is our anchoring. It generates our value system, moral, ethical, social ... All relations are guided by this quality of fidelity. When times become difficult or challenging the person anchors to his core identity. In a spiritually evolved person this anchoring is to god.
Anchoring permits us to accept each other in essence. I am I, and you are you. Each one of us unique. We can have different views. As yet we can solve problems together. This orientation of offering, of giving arises when this anchoring is in place.

Talk at Osmania College, Kurnool, A.P. on 29.7.2011
Dear Friends,
Good Morning.
I am here to talk to you about Transactional Analysis and to get you interested in learning this wonderful theory for improving the quality of your life and becoming achieving. The punch line of my work is this: Achieve what you want effortlessly and fast without doing much. This line may sound quite surprising. We are gifted at birth to achieve. How you may ask. One of the powers, called Physis is enjoyed by all living organisms. Physis is the power to grow and to develop. Let me give you an example. A mango seed is locked under a tile in the out yard of a building. It shrivels up over 1-3 years. Then one year a tanker or truck cracks a tile. In the following year water seeps underneath the tiles during the rainy season. The seed strikes moisture. And, presto it sprouts. It throws the roots first and then the shoot. The shoot has no place to come out in the open. It grows this way and that and finally finds a small gap to come out. Over years it grows into a massive tree. In Transactional Analysis we learn how to tap the capacity to grow and to develop. Transactional Analysis was founded by
Yes, Transactional Analysis is a theory free of jargon words. Only six words have specific meaning as per their definition. They are ego states, transactions, strokes, games, rackets and script. All other words mean the same as per the dictionary meaning. There is plenty to explore. Starting with just one introductory session called the foundation training – this lasts three days, you can start using Transactional Analysis. Your journey has been initiated. Then you continue with certificate, diploma and degree level to know more and more. Keep exploring till you reach the bottom of the ocean or sea. They you know this being called man. You know who you are. Why do you think the way you do, feel the way you do, behave the way you do, say the way you do, act the way you do, reflect the way you do. As
