Home Actress Lisa Ray Instagram Photos and Posts – September 2017 Lisa Ray Instagram - Repost from @mediumbyriddhijain using @RepostRegramApp - In the early 90’s the Rani was on one of her annual vacations to India when she was ‘spotted’ and shot for a Bombay Dyeing campaign. She was suddenly the new girl everybody wanted to work with. It was the beginning of a very simple ideology: That life was for her. Not against her. And this soon turned into a prayer that acted like a lasso to pull the things that she wanted toward her. And whenever the road got a little bumpy, she’d hear the whispers from corners of her mind she’d painted yellow: “Keep going. You’re doing great Lisa Rani.” Prayers have a very tangible, touchable form – Love. To love, therefore, in a way is to offer tribute. The way the Sari is draped, is a method of worship on it’s own. The gentle folds, the reassuring tucks, the encouraging pleats all streamline towards the offering of tribute to one’s body. And as the fabric kisses skin, it whispers to it “Keep going, you’re doing great…”. . . The Jamban Journals is a dedicated documentation of journeys – Of Women and our Sarees. Be a part of this journey and watch them evolve…each in their own way. A playful amalgamation of territories & traditions, this collection of contemporary sarees is Medium's experimentation with Bengal's extra weft weaving delicately syncing with Gujarat's indigenous tie-dye techniques. @lisaraniray shot by @dhruv.satija

Lisa Ray Instagram – Eight years ago I embarked on a health odyssey I chronicled in a blog called #TheYellowDiaries. A lot has changed, both in myself and the world. 
I’m revisiting #TheYellowDiaries and sharing snippets here both to remind myself and connect with you from the deepest part of myself.

#TheYellowDiaries
Chemo is cumulative. Sort of like compounded interest. But not.

The toxicity accumulates in your system. I’m limp all the time, like a heavy camel coat in the summer. Being a covert type A I don’t think I have ever spent longer than three days in bed before this. Not that I haven’t been ill. Often a Doctor would be called on set, I’d get a shot, or some pills and doze between takes. Health never stopped me from staying busy.

Before.

Now, however, my body is in shock. You excavate a mountainside, or the marrow, and you bring material from somewhere deep into consciousness. One of the unexpected side effects of Cancer for me, is the release of some toxic patterns and thoughts. I call it flapping out the fears. Hang them up on poles and watch them flap. Violently. Like flags in a windstorm.

Snap, snap, snap.

So what’s flapping?

Is it the material or the wind?

No.

It’s my mind.

So with mind flapping, in this last cycle of treatment for MM, I’m without strategy.

Cause just now, I don’t have enough energy for the present. Except to do what’s essential. Like, tell them you love them. Burn off excess interactions. Use your best plates and don’t scrimp on the gourmet mustard.  Secrets melt from my marrow. When I catch their stir, I will extract them from my body. It’s alchemy. Cancer is alchemy. In our body is hidden a substance which is the incorruptible medicine. Release it and you heal. 
Barn Burn Down
Now I see the Moon 
Our allegiance is to making sense of stuff. We have immense preoccupation with figuring things out.

Or I can surrender, release the fear and gaze at the moon.
Lisa Ray Instagram – Repost from @mediumbyriddhijain using @RepostRegramApp – People are always told that for good things to happen to you, you need to believe in them. They say you attract the good. But the summer of 2009 was far from it. That summer was confined within the white, white walls of the hospital room. Her father slept in a cot while she was going through her stem cell transplant. And she could almost hear the words emanating from his pores “Keep going. You’re doing great, Rani.” Like a little prayer. And she believed it. 
Things got better. Because she believed they would. And sometimes, your beliefs are so powerful in attracting the kindness of the universe towards you.
Even when you did not know what you wanted until you got it.
