Birthday Special: Why Amala Akkineni Is The Perfect Role Model For All Of Us

Many actors come and go. Some become a faded memory while the others become icons. In an era where everyone is running behind success and wants the best of everything, Amala Akkineni comes as a breath of fresh air. Having acted in several films and taken a two-decade-long sabbatical, the actress never escaped our memory. Because she has an aura that will not allow you to forget her being so easily. Calm and composed seem to be her middle name, while elegance is her first nature. On Amala Akkineni’s 51st birthday, 12 September 2019, we thank her for being so hopeful and positive for a better tomorrow. Her optimism instills us with new energy.

The cool roof at our (mine and Nagarjuna's) house. We recommend that you connect directly to grid and do not store electricity in batteries. Water harvesting, clean green roof with solar energy, minimum waste from kitchen waste – Khamba composting, recycling, hybrid cars. These are some great ways city folks can celebrate the environment. Oh yes, don't forget Vegan Mondays! #worldenvironmentday #environment

Electricity, burning natural material to pulling out wires, is essential for our being. But there are alternatives that are effective and help in reducing our carbon footprints. Amala is a proud owner of a house and a business empire that does not harm the environment, with the help of solar panels.

Listening to people crib about the state of government has been an age-old practice. The younger generation seems more disinterested than ever in stepping out to cast a vote on the election day. But Amala’s bright smile tells that there is something good to look forward to, always.

Today is the full moon we wait for, the entire year. Get involved in some spiritual practice. Meditate. Release. Become one with your self. And let go of all that is coming to the surface. With energies so high all the deep rooted issues, perhaps even the ancestral issues are likely to show up. The shadows will surface, only for us to work through them and clear our energy and space. It is a time of great shift and transformation. The energy can feel super intense now because of the full moon. And the most powerful full moon of the year at that. Light candles, ground, listen to meditative music, sing, dance, chant, draw, paint or choose any form of creative expression which allows you to release all the stored emotions and make way for the new. During the night time, go out under the moon. Raise your hands in the air and channel the energy from mother moon. Let the energy of the moon wash over you. Clean you from inside out and send all the unwanted into mother earth through your feet. Feel the energy of the moon fill you up and raise your frequency. Lighten you as well as enlighten you. Have a super blessed Buddha Poornima / Wesak Festival. Lots of love and light. Aho!! 💖💖💖 Happy Buddha Poornima Blessed Be
