Perceived Reactionary Thought


Perceived Reactionary Thought

Painting a New Canvas

The world of thought is as we see it through the eyes of flesh, limited by a collective reaction to what is happening. Nothing is new. Similar pain and destruction are alive today as their songs echo thousands of years ago — merely amplified by 7.6 billion thoughts.

Filtered by Heart — Canvas becomes a beautiful playground for imagination — creating more beauty. Seen by self, giving witness to the collective — truthfully, not all will see — stick to the Canvas.

The Canvas of Life, dancing in harmony, remaining unbiased to our collective. Ebbs and flows, trials and tribulations, Canvas gives and receives as one chooses to see — opened Heart, eternal expansive force at play.

Sitting, staring at the empty Canvas — effortless interaction, co-creating mirrored beauty always present, we are choosing optimization of our story-line with integrating thought. Hopeless in reality — new perspective at hand, we see the world as we are willing to see.

Like two school children fighting on the playground over who is stronger, superman or batman, we have similar happenings on global levels. We can choose to play the game of who is better, diffuse arguments of reigning superheroes or continue Painting a new Canvas into existence.

We return to the basics, written by nature, living harmoniously and complimentary of the next. We exist from the cosmos of thought to the cosmos of thought we return. Whether we wait until our final return or set aside the daily practice of reconnecting with All There Is.

There is no right or wrong, only perceived reactionary thought of the collective. Listen to the others or return to All There Is, Painting a New Canvas into existence — following Heart’s song into tomorrow and the next.

The symbolism of the snow leopard brings us to identify ourselves on a deeper level. High in the Himalayas, the snow leopard seeks solitude and deeper observation of daily events. With the ability to approach its daily encounters with precision and care, the snow leopard emerges from solitude to nourish self and those closest within family or network of the alike.

With our current obsession with claps, tags, reciprocation of works, we lose our purpose of why we are here. Personal opinion, of course, or hidden agreement by others finding rest high in the mountaintops.

With an invite in hand, our author chooses to leave it here for those to take arms in purpose and thought. Remaining true to the word, chosen by few, sought by those needing to hear — we are here.

Much gratitude to the Coffee Times Movement and the editors who hold sacred space for others to share, Yana Bostongirlfor keeping Know Thyself Heal Thyself alive, Diana C.for baring her vintage soul to all, and Sujona Chatterjee for sharing what it means to be true to self.

Sujona Chatterjee doesn’t get paid for her works due to constraints with Medium availability in her area but looks to share in a cup of coffee with those enjoying their time on her page. Please show her some love and buy her a coffee.


Much gratitude for those who take time to read, ponder, and allow the inner workings of self to come forward. Grateful for the feedback, love shared, and more importantly, the Dance with Inspiration. Deep Peace.

Deep Within the Canvas


Deep Within the Canvas

Our hearts beating as one

We arise each day with many choices in our being. Do I have morning coffee? What to have for breakfast? In the interest of time, we create habits or rituals to be more efficient throughout our day.

We have the same breakfast — adding one or two cups of coffee to start the day because that is what we think will start our day in the right direction. While brief, it may, but can we sustain this feeling throughout our day?

A mere sip into a greater feeling, unsustainable or prolonged effect intently forward?

If we act in a certain way or do certain acts, we will have a more positive experience. While it may be so, what if the day does not go as expected? Can one sustain positivity during times of difficulty? Unfortunately, our attachment to how the day should be, how we should act, or what our appearance should be, may only lead to more suffering.

As the world spins around us, inclusively turning, how we respond changes the directional pulls of universal thoughts. It just is.

Our attachment to how the Canvas of Life ‘should be’ leads only to more suffering. Allowing the Canvas of Life to be as it may, while exchanging a dance with inspiration or harmonizing to a magical tune, we find ourselves unattached, untethered to what the world around us says we ought to be doing.

In a world of bypassing, we connect to all there is.

Attached to an outcome, we find only pain and misery. Attached to experiencing All There Is, we lead an awe-inspiring life. Deep within the Canvas is a Heartbeat. Those willing to listen shall hear — feeling a deeper connection to All There Is. No attachment, just awe-inspired.

It is…as It may…

Awareness of life’s unfolding mysteries, we remain in awe. Is it a sign or is it just life synchronicity?

Oh, the blue feather
fallen at my feet.
Must be a sign
of something
someone
communicating from another realm.
Hawk screeches
flying overhead
messenger.

What does it mean?

Affixed on the story
meaning of sorts
stuck
dwelling — never knowing.
Breathe.
Winds gentle whispers
clouds blanketing sun
connecting.
Mother calls
step gingerly in her presence.

Spinning in thought
sitting quietly — amused
bursting into laughter
tears welling.

Painting the skies
land
water
burning desires
given birth.

Oh, the blue feather
fallen at my feet
awakened my Spirit
eternal gratitude It Is.

Open to receiving great messages from beyond — left wondering if it is a sign from the spirit of life itself. Is it a sign? or merely a trigger to life’s mysteries unfolding, fading memories and heartfelt transmissions of something great?

As simple as a Japanese maple leaf, triggered thought, captured moments and memories withholding, Jenine Bsharah Baines expresses her gratitude through a chance (or was it) moment in time.

Thank you Filza Chaudhry and Heart Revolution for housing these words.


Much gratitude for those who take time to read, ponder, and allow the inner workings of self to come forward. Grateful for the feedback, love shared, and more importantly, the Dance with Inspiration. Deep Peace.
