like the weather, it was a week full of varieties.

sunny periods, thunderstorm, heavy rain…

1.7M marched surprisingly peacefully amid heavy rain on 818, while hundred thousands form human chain peacefully to light up lion rock hill and many city areas on 823.

daughter and i took the opportunity to visit our ancestors far away on a sunny day. blessed with a very quiet sunny brief period at Stanley afterwards for a cool lemon drink, tasty waffle, wonderful seaview, and a lovely toy…

it was so quiet and soothing that one really did not want to check the phone. hoping that nothing has ever happened / is happening…

like jumping into another parallel universe

as the sun goes down, we left the place and go back to the city. the reality again..

then this weekend, more clashes, the train company closed down many stations first time ever (?) for political reason shortly ahead of approved protests, tear gas fired again at other crowded residential and commercial complexes, water cannon deployed the first time., residents not allowed to get home, and earlier this week, more cx pilot, flight attendant fired, numerous media and reporters pressured, university students detained in tibet, UK embassy staff detained in shenzhen for 15 days,,,,

meanwhile, tension among various countries continue to escalate over various areas, trade, firing of missiles, how to control wild fire in brazil…

rain almost non stop today. i went for a walk alone in the evening near my home for some much needed alone quiet time. listening to the rain can be very healing even knowing the fight continues elsewhere.

i truly admire those who managed to maintain a very positive attitude even in prison. doing whatever he can to help to fight for better welfare for all imprisoned.

most HKers r not used to this kind of pressure / conflict / chaos, though most understand it is kind of a necessary evil.

may we all gathered strength, faith, hope .. .after rest / reconnecting with the source, nature, tranquility…, keep spreading the light with much wisdom, love and power, and manifest this mission impossible asap.

more than 2 months after the 1M march against the proposed extradition bill on 9 June, this campaign has become a global event.

today, in more than 30 major cities including london, NY, paris…there are similar events supporting HKers. from initially lennon wall in schools, to city centres

almost in every occasion, big group of mainlanders also joined, chanting slogans like : hk is part of china / i am yr grandpa!

certainly a big opportunity for the world to see the mindset / behavior / quality of prc people!!

i feel that most chinese r still deeply conditioned by the belief that children r their personal property. they “own” the children, therefore can beat them up / do whatever they want.

it is understandable why so many mainlanders r jealous about HK, such a prosperous int’l city that offers so much freedom to citizens that most prc people can never imagine. that is why they keep coming, even though property price is skyhigh, and the city is really crowded.

those arrogant / impolite anti protesters fully identify with their prc citizen identity so much that they r so eager to remind Hkers that prc is hk’s grandpa.

well, be a good grandpa then. who will run away from a good grandpa who loves his grand children?

why do HKers still cling onto the good old days before the handover even though hk was only a british colony?

that’s because to a child, what matters most is not whether the mom is a biological / foster one , but whether the mom loves the child.

demonstrate yr love towards all your children, let them see u have their best interests in heart, they will sure run to u . coercion does not work.

may the very unconscious / obscured ones realise asap the most powerful weapon : LOVE , not tanks, guns, soldiers…

it is with LOVE that a country / regime can sustain long term prosperity

as a chinese saying goes : love yr people as yr son

everlasting ancient wisdom

HKers, regardless of their age / occupation, r getting more mature, wise, united, embracing,.. despite differences in approach.

we certainly deserve better grandpa.

May we all evolve / transform fast.

Blessings be to all

7/14 lunar calendar, the day on which chinese believe the gate of hell will wide open. that’s why during this month, many people offer incense / burn offerings to wandering spirits

what happen on 811 is really too much for all to bear. the bloody photo of a young female first aider who was shot in the eye will sure be deeply imprinted in all HKer’s heart.

same day, tear gas and rubber bullets fired into subway station; police again befriend triad members, turn a blind eye, while keep arresting or even harassing esp. female; firing at short distance at protesters who were coming up escalators from a subway station, keep beating them and push them down ; then a few very likely police officers caught read handed pretending to be protesters…

HK seems suddenly turned into another place in just 2 months. seems the veil is suddenly lifted so that all can see what has been going on for years.

certainly unbelievable to many. heart broken…

i can’t help visiting my dad and grandma at the cemetery the day after all these bloody events happened. tears of course, like many. yet i can strongly feel the assurance and love from all ancestors during this difficult times.

the smile of my dad on the photo reminds me again of how to remain positive even during very challenging period.

at the time writing, airport has been occupied consecutively for 5 days. something rather unexpected. an alleged chinese police discovered and not allowed to leave for hours…

i watch with deep respect how seemingly fragile young female reporter being threatened / treated badly, cried, then quickly wiped off tears and continued to report…

it is this quality, the ability to accept and face fear, resilience, adherence to justice, courage, faith…. that we all need to develop and strengthen during this challenging period in order to continue this mission impossible

may all evil spirits be soothed, healed, transformed…

may all sentient beings in the upper, middle, lower world be blessed.

may we all be showered with divine love, wisdom, forgiveness, the will to do good…

Blessings be to all

when the govt. still failed to respond / act according to people’s demand; abuse of power continues; “boss” keeps threatening… the amazing youngsters r becoming much more creative and wise.

the recent “stargazing” gathering, wong tai sin burning of paper incense… all kinds of creative and powerful posters, …

very glad to see the political analyst whose personal safety was undermined still conducting very high quality program high spirited, even with great sense of humor!

and certainly very encouraged to know that those in prison, leaders of the previous “occupy central” campaign, r all adapting quickly, making the most out of this challenging period in various ways : to read, write, help out others, connecting with oneself…

it is this quality, the ability to fully accept what is, stay calm, overcome the fear, see the absurdity, and transform it into wise actions with humor / creativity… that will lead to winning of the battle.

as the saying goes : what can’t kill me makes me stronger

all HKers r undergoing the same. forced to become stronger, wiser, more resilient, embracing, united, creative… human beings.

it is likely that physical violence will fade after the big explosion on 8.5 . what follows will likely be a series of more “gentle” yet more effective actions.

may we all have learnt the power of presence. it is in stillness/ great alertness/ awareness, instead of anger / hatred that we all r most powerful.

the sword of presence will be our greatest weapon.

there is no chance to lose.

2nd time in 2 months, 3000 legal professionals gathered in the sun lunch time, all sweating, to voice out their deep concern about discriminatory prosecution by the govt. speakers took turn to stand on a ladder, outside secretary for justice office, demanding face to face conversation with her.

she did not show up.

these elites, including a veteran who has never spoken publicly in a square, demonstrated their great courage, conscience, integrity, respect for their own profession….

my heartfelt thanks and deep respect + salutation to all these legal heroes of HK, without whom the remaining rule of law will sure vanish.

when 800 tear gas fired in a day, 1800 in 2 months, many near highly populated residential areas even old aged homes; those who beaten innocent people weeks ago still not sentenced; while protesters who have committed minor offences prosecuted in days; student leaders arrested for very controversial reason, … it is clear that the govt, and law enforcement unit is no longer upholding justice. the rule of law already eroding while integrity of those in power completely vanished. they have certainly forgotten their role as civil servants and no longer have people’s interest in their hearts.

in face of power and money, not everyone can resist the temptation.

it is a challenging battle when those with most power is corrupted and worse, backed up by a country.

yet it is normally during this time that most light will shine through. all those who have been silent for so long choose to step out, as what is happening is too much against their own conscience / integrity.

have faith that it is happening. nature is helping, consequences of man made errors showing up…

with much hearts, wisdom, tact, creativity, perseverance, … we shall certainly overcome. it is only a matter of time.

all light workers add oil! the whole Universe is supporting u !

many unprecedented/ unusual events/ discoveries lately around the world to make one feel something significant is really happening . mother earth kind of heating up / undergoing deep purification. various life forms affected, including, of course, human beings:

frequent earth quakes in the pacific;

water found in Hawaiian volcano;

arctic fire;

mass shooting in US, within hours;

ever increasing tension between big countries :US, china, Iran, Korea, Japan, Russia… regarding weapon race, trade war, human rights…

in prc, floods, droughts, increasing control / crack down of various religious activities, the “deformed” dam, …

and of course, unprecedented protests in HK already ongoing for 2 months, spreading fast to all district over HK + the upcoming massive political strike a few hours later today : 5 aug. 19

…

seems a big correction upcoming to right the wrong that has been going on for decades; a drastic, deep revamp to let go of all that no longer resonate with a new order.

dawn is close when darkness has been ongoing for so long.

fasten seat belt. be a grounded forever observer , who is also a participant;

simply allow the Universe to do its job and events to unfold.

A new earth awaits 🙂

Blessings be to All

humanity is often displayed during turbulent / challenging times. in face of great injustice, HKers united to say NO, in various ways.

some very moving scenes / events that happened in just few days recapped :

hundreds of people lined up to donate food coupons to protesters;

even when typhoon no. 8 was hoisted, many stood in the wind and rain for 6 hours to support those charged with “riot” outside a district court;

despite being pressured from the govt and other organisations, over 40K civil servants bravely gathered after work to voice out their requests;

security staff of high end shopping mall, shop keeper of convenience store, residents of estate near police station …stood up to refuse police entry;

flash mob of people working in financial sector gathered to show support;

people in taiwan donate hamlets to support HKers;…

just about an hour ago, police fired pepper balls to a pedestrian foot bridge near our neighbourhood without warning, when there were many passers by. conflicts escalating esp. when so many r emotionally charged.

meanwhile, there is rumour of curfew coming soon, and massive strike planned the day after tomorrow on 8/5 (monday)…

HKers r really writing history. it is our common goal that what we have enjoyed before 97 can be restored and maintained :

a govt that have the interest of its citizens at its heart;

a fair independent legal system;

a police force that protect rather than harm citizens;

a police force and judiciary structure that treated everyone fairly;

freedom of speech, gatherings, protest.. without the fear of being persecuted afterwards;

religious freedom;

physical safety;

free from the fear of being wrongly accused of something he/she did not say / do….

Justice and Light shall prevail, though we might need to go through some challenging periods.

HKers Add Oil

for we have the support from the world, even/ esp. from those of the mainland.

the leader might not need to change, but the mindset / method .. .

together we complete this mission impossible.

This is certainly a great time to remember, a big test of conscience, strength, wisdom, faith, courage…

a lot happened since the 721 attack in Yuen Long. in just a few days, various gatherings/ protests at different places, requesting the same issues that have not been addressed by govt for almost 2 months, + other more recent incidents. airport, YL, Central / sheung wan, kwai chung police station…

police and govt.use stronger force / means trying to curb all similar activities : many more tear gas (even expired ones), fast and massive charging of protesters , even those who gathered to support release of those detained , people who applied for permit for a protest, or those very likely only helping out at the scene : social worker, nurse, … not to mention press, .. even firefighters / ambulances were said to be banned from entering certain areas…

the threat that the army will enter HK continues…

then came the sudden ban of mainlanders visiting taiwan…

analyst under personal threat, accusing him of doing something he did not…

meanwhile, no govt officials / police step down / held responsible regarding all that has happened in 2 months, esp. 721. though luckily, ICAC already launching an investigation.

no one likes violence. esp. not seeing how our younger generation got injured that seriously for political reason.

when justice is being more suppressed, more conscience and courageous people will voice out.

already seeing spouse of police stepping out, supporting thorough investigation, hoping to prove innocence of most police officers, and rebuild reputation of the force.

also those who worked in the legal dept., openly accuse their boss of prejudice in charging protesters vs. those who engaged in 721 attack. ..

other civil servants launching gatherings, asserting their freedom of speech / gathering as a HKer, even though they have another form identity as a civil servant….

i still see light. people r more embracing, united , outspoken , stronger.. than ever. we might not agree with the means, yet all know very well the cause / goal.

it is a test for each of us as a human, against self interest / still keeping silence despite so much injustice.

i think of Anne Frank. the strong girl who maintained so much faith in such harsh times.

also Eckhart : that we r various manifestation of the One Consciousness. our true essence is pure , unconditioned , timeless, formless, spaceless, consciousness, though each of us also have a form identity : nurse, dr., student, police, lawyer..

to know and identify only our form identity creates a big ego, that constantly wants to prove one is superior , right, … and all others r enemies..

it is more challenging for those deeply conditioned to have greater awareness of their own minds / thoughts

may HKers be the pioneers, a shining example of a true human being. so that justice can be uphold, and everyone enjoys basic human rights

all is well. even though some turbulent times / drastic transformation is needed.

have faith that light shall prevail. it is already happening worldwide.

Blessings be to All
