16-yr old Arya Dharod launches “Silent Ripples” an anthology of contemporary reflective poetry

Arya Dharod (age 16) has launched an anthology of free verse poetry.

The set contains 3 books with over 400 poems and 100 haikus spanning diverse topics touching upon life’s varied insights and reflections.

In Arya’s own words, “A fleeting thought, a sudden realization, a reflection on an aspect of my own existence …… all coming to life in the form of poetry. I have titled this entire repository of my poetry “Silent Ripples”. A silent, subtle ripple in the pond may not be noticeable at first. In just a few seconds, it spreads over the surface of the entire pond, and for a fleeting moment blurs and transforms any reflection staring into the body of water. In essence, that is what poetry, indeed most writing is. Profound and powerful enough to inspire, move and question us from within. In my own simple, subtle ways, through my writing, I wish to ignite sparks for a beautiful life and enriching soul journey for each one of us.”

A look inside:

Soul’s Journey: Is a deep look inward and outward; a journey of self-discovery. The poems cover a breathtaking array of themes with perspectives on experiences and life lessons. From profound concepts like repentance and life choices to the core values needed for life, a sense of wonder, motivation and self-identity, the book is a powerhouse of insights.

Nature’s Wonder: “If you are tired of just existing, and want to truly start living, open up your senses and heart, look deep but not too far … at this marvelous blue planet of ours”, is Arya’s inspiring invitation to readers. The book is a refreshing look at Creation through fresh eyes; turning the mundane into the miraculous. Arya explores themes like the seasons, nature’s diverse creations and colors, seasons, life’s true calling we can draw from nature, the blessing of food, diversity of creatures in our environment, the duality of nature and its joys.

Life’s Balance: Very often, we are unwilling to stretch our mental faculties to dive further into higher thinking and curiosity. This book takes readers on a journey to examine how a delicate life balance can be achieved, It addresses vital questions about the different phases of life, the importance of family and the primacy of relationships among a host of other reflections.

What makes Arya’s books not just endearing but truly inspiring is both the depth of insights and the massive breadth of thinking; covering a staggering array of themes and ideas. Written in a simple and evocative style it makes good reading for readers of any age or background. The books are available as a 3-book set, or as stand-alone books. On sale now at https://serenestrokes.com/poetry/

Yoga India Foundation offers life-changing 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training in India

Yoga India Foundation offers life-changing 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training in India

In a fast-paced world full of modernization, digitalization and commercialism, it’s easy to lose the connection to your own body and mind. While we can now achieve more than ever and develop rapidly in terms of economic growth and job opportunities, people keep forgetting one major thing of great importance: their own health and well-being.

Wanting more, achieving more, rushing and racing is a common lifestyle in most modern societies, but how much can our own body and mental state take in the long term?

During a recent study conducted by McKinsey, 4 out of 10 Indians show high levels of depression, anxiety, burnout and distress.

Not only mentally, but also physically many individuals are severely impacted due to an unhealthy lifestyle. Back pain, insomnia, diabetes, high blood pressure and chronic fatigue syndrome were some of the very common ailments in 7 out of 10 Indians.

While some individuals ignore those physical health limitations completely, others aim to search for fast-working cures and lifestyle changes that can help to improve their quality of life.

Yoga has been the number one life saver and life-quality booster for millions of people already worldwide. As the ancient science of creating optimum health, yoga integrates various practical techniques to help improve physical, mental and emotional health. It is a scientifically proven fact, that asana, pranayama and meditation work directly on the nervous, cardiovascular, digestive, respiratory and endocrines systems and improve their functions.

There are many videos and resources online, however one should always consult with an experienced yoga teacher or Ayurvedic doctor to understand which techniques are most suitable for one’s body and current issues.

The Yoga India Foundation is one of the oldest and most experienced yoga schools and ashrams in India. The non-profit organization has taught more than 10000 international and national individuals the powerful and healing aspects of yoga.

Individuals can apply for various courses at the ashram; the most popular one is the 21-day residential 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training in India. During this course, everything about yoga is taught from A to Z or from very foundational to more intermediate levels. Participants learn about the philosophy of yoga and Ayurveda but also practical techniques that include Kriyas, Asana and Pranayama and Meditation. An Ayurvedic Doctor is always present to provide pulse diagnose and herbal supplements along the course to naturally assist the healing process. Participants are trained to learn how to cure their own physical and mental problems by applying Yoga techniques in a Therapeutic context.

A yoga teacher training in India can be a life-changing and transformational experience. It can be the kickstart to more self-awareness, self-control and peace.

Yoga has the power to heal you: your body and mind both. When practiced continuously and correctly, yoga can be the best tool to bring stability, calmness and happiness to every one’s life.

New Delhi [India], March 6: La Trobe University‘s Vice-Chancellor, Professor John Dewar AO, is in New Delhi this week with Australian Education Minister, The Hon. Jason Clare MP, to cement strategically important partnerships with universities, research centres, and industry partners in India.

Official agreements signed at ceremonies over the three-day visit will strengthen global research and industry collaborations and create new international learning opportunities for staff and students at La Trobe, and its partner organisations in India.

Professor Dewar will meet with representatives from some of India’s leading educational and research institutions, including the Bangalore Bioinnovation Centre, Lady Shri Ram College and Jindal Global Law School.

Professor Dewar said he was excited that these newly established partnerships with leading research and teaching institutions and industries would further deepen La Trobe’s already established relationship with India.

“We have a long and proud history of close ties with many of India’s leading research, educational and cultural institutions, and deeply value the contribution they make to our campuses and communities,” Professor Dewar said.

“Whether offering Shah Rukh Khan scholarships for aspiring female researchers, partnering with the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne, or graduating thousands of students with Indian heritage who now hold senior positions across the globe, our partnerships in India are critical to our success as a university.”

Professor Dewar said the ceremonial signings during his trip to India would reap many benefits for staff, students and communities in both countries.

“As a global University, we are always seeking new ways to foster and enhance international collaborations that not only benefit our own students and staff, but create new and exciting opportunities for those institutions with whom we build partnerships,” Professor Dewar said.

“This is exactly what these exciting agreements signed today will do, and I very much look forward to us working productively with these four institutions over the coming years, as well as with our many other valued partners in India.”

La Trobe took part in the following signing ceremonies on 2 March, 2023, in New Delhi:
