Photoblog: Beauty Branches

noreply@blogger.com (Mohini Puranik) — Wed, 20 Mar 2019 06:03:00 +0000

The nature doesn't need a particular set of defined terms to exhibit its beauty and so to soothe our souls. The cluster fig tree, the inspiration for many of my poems, caught my attention recently by the strange beauty its branches held.

Photoblog: The Calm Sky With The Scorching Sun

noreply@blogger.com (Mohini Puranik) — Thu, 07 Feb 2019 16:58:00 +0000

The calm blue sky with the scorching sun exhibits the very constitution of the ātman. Though they appear to be in the same place, they are unattached and unaffected by each other's presence. Sky emanates the calm, the peace like blue ocean while the sun emanates scorching heat at its peak in the afternoon.

Artwork: Togetherness

noreply@blogger.com (Mohini Puranik) — Tue, 11 Dec 2018 15:36:00 +0000

An artwork on the theme 'Togetherness'.

I was working on an idea to create something on the theme 'letting go'. Surprisingly, upon finishing it my initial idea turned out to be on togetherness instead of letting go.

It's necessary to let go of unhealthy, negative emotions. However, the emotions of love and togetherness occupy the unwavering place in our heart.

Photoblog: The Posed and The Unposed

noreply@blogger.com (Mohini Puranik) — Thu, 27 Sep 2018 17:16:00 +0000

No activity can be more relaxing than hanging out with friends in nature.

My favorite place to watch the serenity of the sky I found on the outskirts of the city during my highway rides. A byway into the Surat-Kolkata national highway at the junction where it crosses Dhule, forms perfect environs to watch the splendor of the sunsets live.

My tree-friends joining in the photo with their candid emotions

I would love to visit this place almost every evening till few years back. Each of them sang a new song for me, told a new story. This evening was the rare golden. The sky was radiating its goldenness through its enchanting hues. I was storing the peace in my heart as a medicine to cope with the reality of my life's restrictions. The serenity, though not a measurable quantity, it's the life-force for my writing, breathing, and living.

Two of my friends must have felt disappointed upon watching how I was busy with my photography ignoring them. They joined in the photo-shoot with their candid emotions of little frown on their leaves. Needless to reintroduce my tree-friends. You must have met them in my poems often. Look at the candid emotions of leaves at the top right corner and the branches on the left.

Tree-friend posing happily for the photo

Realizing my mistake when I moved back to click them, look how happily one of them posed for the photo shoot like a professional model.

My tree friends are everywhere. They are around you, around me. They are not only my friends,
trees are friends of everyone of us. Mother Nature has always been with us. It's just that we have forgotten to connect with her.

Plant a tree today and meet a forever friend. Reconnect with Mother Nature.

The Moment of Serenity

noreply@blogger.com (Mohini Puranik) — Mon, 05 Jun 2017 12:32:00 +0000

Today I thought to visit Vitthala temple here. The Sun was as scorching as ever. I thought to go to the temple and pray which is something I have in my mind whenever I remember the temple.

As soon as I entered the serene temple, whiteboard there caught my attention; it is Nirjala Ekadashi today. Since I had to stop observing the fasts, I don't check Ekadashi dates which occur twice in a month.

God calls us at the right time in the right place. And He was there as always, smiling and waiting for me to come to meet Him.
