THE INSTINCT OF FORGIVENESS…..

THE INSTINCT OF FORGIVENESS…..

 

The days could be dazzling and the nights serene, the mind clear and the soul purer, the hearts could feel lighter and the bodies healthier if I could learn to forgive….yes, our lives would be so much lighter and freedom would color our essence if we were to practice the beauty of forgiveness.

               At the end of a weary day, before we cradle into sleep, a brief forgiveness practice can do us wonders. By bringing to mind the movements of the day, by being a nonjudgmental observer to our own actions and those of others, it is possible to declutter ourselves of unrequired grudges and bitterness.

          In forgiveness, we attain true freedom. Because we become mere observers and free ourselves from the conditioned responses of anger, guilt, and frustration. In forgiving, we liberate ourselves and others from further entanglements in the action-reaction cycle. We break the chain and, and become fearless to make new commitments. Sometimes, out of our previous bitter experiences and our inability to forgive, we fear to enter new relationships, and thereby expand our lives. Also, being in the safe cocoon of this agony becomes like an addiction. Its generally simpler to hold others responsible for our pain and sufferings, rather than taking the reign of changing things in our own hands. It shifts the onus to the other fellow and we become the suffering soul, gathering our own sympathy and those of others.

      In holding grudges, we have a false sense of empowerment but practicing empathy and forgiveness melts all the wrong notions of feeling victimized, empowered etc. like a wave that erases all that’s written on sand, it erases and dulls the seeping wounds of our soul and embalms it with the elixir of compassion and empathy.

   In all of it, an important component is to remember to include ourselves in the process. There are many ways in which we have dishonored ourselves by rejecting our choices, disapproving of our heart’s desires and sacrificing our happiness for the sake of others. At other points, we have denied ourselves love and care because of our distorted belief of our not deserving enough for it. For all these and much more, we need to forgive ourselves.

  At other times, in our own confusions and fears, our own frustrations, we hurt and betray others. We inflict pain and hurt. Through words and deeds, we cause misery and anguish. Against our default setting of kindness, we vent out hatred and indifference. We need to ask forgiveness from the bleeding hearts.

   At various points, due to unknown reasons, people lash out at us and in their rage, and fury, cause us grief. For years, we might sob and mourn and hold on to the pain. We are captives of our own unforgiveness. We carry the weight of all these burdens when there is no need to. Release all those who gave you pain, and you will be released too.

 The heart of forgiveness stems from compassion and gratitude. If we have compassion springing from our being, then forgiveness is only like a sequel to it. Gratefulness leaves no room for complaints and our heart is singing its own melody of bliss. There is no desire to latch onto the reactions of others and a strength of spirit easily deflects all weapons of anger and curses sent to it. Its only response is to send positive and loving vibrations of love and light to the ones who despise.

         Compassion and forgiveness may seem like a meek ammunition, but it is truly the empowerment of a strong and healthy spirit.. only the strong can forgive, the weak can only remorse.

    We have a long way to master this art, but until then, let’s make fresh beginnings, every day.

I am so grateful to you Dr. Pallavi Kwatra Ji, to receive your book as a gift. The book is truly a Wave of Beauty – Saudarya Lahiri, literally. Expressing each of the 1000 sacred names of the Devi in a 1000 pictures is a first of its kind. I send my prayers for its success!

This is a lovely collection of 101 seminal quotes from the great sage Ramana Maharshi, set in delightful designs by Dr. Pallavi Kwatra. A great coffee table book, this would also be a special gift for any spiritual seeker.

I received this book as a gift from the author herself. Unlike any other books, I queued it for a suitable time and space in order to leap into the engraved wisdom the words hid. As an author and above all as a spiritual-aspirant, Pallavi’s words always reflected something more than just an emotion, and this is the very reason, I wanted to create
an elegant space and time for myself to read her work. And let me be honest, those times I spent reading and absorbing her words became some of the finest moment of my spiritual journey. An eloquent style of narration and the choices of words separates Pallavi from other poets and poetesses I have come across. It is also an important
aspect that her words have the power to reflect a multitude of meaning in the reader’s mind and heart, which affirms her success as a spiritual and symbolic poetess.
Therefore, I am grateful for her to furnish one of the finest poetic works in this year, and gifted me those pearls of wisdom with all its humility and humbleness. ‘Be love’, in all its glory.

Be Love is beautiful! The most beautifully formatted Kindle book that I have. I think I will also get a physical copy too. The font and drawings aptly reflect the delicious content. I am in awe of the writer’s heart and poetic gift. I hope there is more to come.
Thank you.

Book : 9 Months: From Involution to Evolution: What’s App Satsang

Amazon Customer

For anyone interested in spirituality, Hindu philosophy and spiritual poetry, this book is
a rare and highly entertaining treasure. The author, a doctor and poet living in Delhi,
and an ardent devotee of Ramana Maharshi, started a Whatsapp group with eleven
other spiritually-inclined Indian-born doctors, some of them working in the West, and
their ensuing spiritual discussions form the contents of this book, thus giving a modern
twist to the age-old concept of satsang (spiritual discourse, literally meaning ‘joining
with truth’). The flow of gentle chatter among the participants is interspersed with
spiritual stories from various traditions, references to great Gurus of all eras, and
sizzling Zen-like spiritual poetry, the specialty of the author:
What a pity it is
That we fail to see
How unconditionally the sky
Walks alongside each of us.
Inspiring quotes from modern gurus like Sadhguru and Nannagaru are sprinkled
throughout, and lofty concepts such as predestination, grace, bhakti, moksha and
Enlightenment are bubbling through every paragraph. But it is not just talk; some of
those participating in this delightfully human conversation have experienced profound
bhavas and samadhi states, and their attempts to convey those ineffable experiences
inevitably inspire the reader to reach beyond their words into the experience itself.
Such is the great value and blessing of satsang, and the precious offering hidden
within these pages.
My gratitude to this book’s esteemed author, and all who participated in this divine
conversation!

This book is truly an unique blend of timeless wisdom, discussed on modern
technology. Twelve doctors meet over the period of nine months on the internet’s
WhatsApp site, to discuss religious beliefs, spirituality and philosophy. Dr. Pallavi
Kwatra, an anesthetist, captures the essence of each profound discussion and
presents it in a comprehensive and understandable manner. She also includes
spiritual poetry which adds an element of whimsical thoughtfulness to substantial
topics. Her introduction to each member of this group was delightful; the reader feels
as if she has met each one in person.
For anyone seeking to develop an intellectual understanding of spiritual topics, as well
as numerous ways to find fulfilling enlightenment, this book will provide many avenues
of exploration. Dr. Kwatra has presented us with a true treasure!

I found this book fascinating and delightful. The author organized an Internet-based
group of professionals to discuss spiritual matters in a unique way, with each person
bringing his or her specific background and predilection to the discussion. By
organizing her material in this way, Dr. Kwatra succeeded in presenting what might
otherwise have been "heavy" ideas in a refreshingly relaxed way. A thoroughly good
read!

The book is first of its kind documenting satsang through Whatsapp. I appreciate the
efforts of Dr Pallavi Kwatra who has organised the satsang among like-minded
persons interested in something beyond the material world. The group mainly consists
of highly educated professionals from medical and dental fields. It is amazing that
each of them has a great exposure to spiritual literature and have shared their
reflections on various issues and also their personal experience in life.
This book is designed in a dialogue form, where each one can share the knowledge
and experience with the other, who can verify and improve their knowledge.
While it cannot be assessed to what extent the difference has been made on the
thought process of the participants, but I am sure the reader will certainly benefit from
the collection of diverse opinions on various matters, leaving it to him to decide what is
most appealing to him.
Nevertheless, the path of self-realisation is different for each individual. The mind and
intellect, however, need a positive push and will get when we come across seekers
who are on the same path and finding some concrete results.
Though neither the participants nor the reader may fail to find all answers to their
questions, yet this collection of conversations amongst like-minded seekers will give
hope that self-realisation is possible, but we have to wait and fruitfully engage

ourselves in the path shown by enlightened souls. Let us hope that such breed of
intense spiritual seekers may multiply, taking cue from the efforts of Dr Pallavi who
used the medium of whatsapp effectively.
The participants, though have not fully blossomed spiritually, are on the right path,
who with their fearless search and boldness, are sure to reach the goal. They are
‘Little Masters’ in the making who will certainly inspire the new generation of spiritual
aspirants.

What an awesome read! It pulls down spirituality from the heavens to our daily
lives.No being is immune to the essence and energy of the universe, but we just don't
address it. Through these conversations, you realise, your whole being is just an
extension of the universe!! Thanks Dr. Pallavi!!

This is a beautiful, heart opening and achingly honest account of a personal
awakening process. The author’s poetic style is flowing with feeling and vibrancy. The
illustrations beautifully compliment each poem and pull the reader along with the
words from great sorrow to great joy. Thank you.

It’s a little treasure, in this day and age, to find.
The words go so beautifully with the illustrations, a combining of two Souls.
You will can see with each word that was written, was done with a deep sense of
passion, and Love.
The words just dance and caress your eyes as you read each page.
This is a woman who knows the very depth of her very being, and brings out what’s
inside of her, and gives it life.
As for San Deep, who did the illustrations, have a story all of their own……. of all “That Is” !!!!!!! You just have to look at the pictures, they touch your very core.
So the combination of these two people make for a wonderful journey into the Soul.

Yours Faithfully

Throughout all of human existence, great wordsmiths have grappled to put language
around the ineffable experience of love. In the grand tradition of the world’s greatest
poets, such as Rumi, Rilke, Hafiz, and others, poetess Pallavi Kwatra gives us a
glimpse into the transcendent heights, and lows, that laying ourselves on love’s altar
delivers. Again and again, she makes herself a devotee, allowing love itself to be her
guru, her master, her teacher, and her muse. From love`s crescendos to love’s depths
of despair, she lays her heart open, making of it a portal that we can walk through to
discover love’s glory. Very few writers are able to so eloquently deliver the sublime
delicacies that love has to offer. This is a feast to be savored poem by poem, line by
line, word by word, as one would savor the rarest of delicacies. Take each poem
in…let it open you, arouse you, awaken you, and deliver you to your own salvation
and redemption.

Soulwhisperer
Be-Love-Book-Cover-Front.png

When you let go of the me
The self is what you find
To be here and now and just be
To delve into an awakened mind

The chaos and order inside
The dance of desire and loathing
You observe the enchanting divide
At once beguiling and soothing

When you love the “I”;
And shed the “I am..”;
You let the ego die
Discern this body is a sham

Today when I fall in love
Uniting the Earth, the Soul and the Divine
In truth I rise above
The surface and own my brilliant shine
