Home Sweet Home

recently a few programs recorded a few years ago popped up. all about emigration of HK people to other places.

the push-pull factor is common for all. while some settled very well into a new place, others still have their hearts very much tied to this homeland.

John Tsang, who himself ran for CE election and lived in US before, said he ran for election because he did not want to see many more people leaving, for he understood how it feels like to be away from this place we have long considered home.

i was very moved. if only he was the CE….things might be very different

we were the generation of very little political sensitivity / concern. when we were small, most people very poor. many lived in crowed public housing. to improve financial conditions becomes almost the only goal for many.

after half a century, things finally gets a bit better, our children now adults, we are a bit better off than before though still under great pressure of high property price.. it should be the time for a very relaxed life, to do things we did not have the chance to do while we were young, or simply enjoy the ordinariness of everyday life.

yet, alas, comes this extradition bill and the subsequent use of excessive force on peaceful demonstrators….. the whole town was stunned, big blow…

even people like us who are not used to express our views publicly feel an urge to speak up / stand out. for justice, peace, harmony, and our next generation..

there are many cute babies / toddlers near where we live. their innocence and happy faces reminds me that i have to do something. there is also a poster i just saw lately saying something like “it is that difficult to have dinner with family members at home”? the purpose is to ask the mass to join 612 protest.

i believe the common goal for many is the same : simple life , happy times with family and friends, enjoy meals together, have a cup of tea, eat some buns 🙂

when even this very basic human right is threatened so that everyone needs to live in fear, all will have no doubt to stand up and defend this bottom line.

how then becomes the next question.

may we all remember there are many options. violence might not be needed. thoughts are powerful tools.

have faith that the divine order shall be restored. that there is a place for temporary disorder, for it is usually during great sufferings/ imbalances that the mass awaken quickly, and transformation occurs.

Blessings be to all

Mission Impossible

i have learnt lately,

that many totalitarian regimes have dissolved naturally without blood sheds;

that the universe has undergone 83 big bangs, and the 84th is now happening,

while most those that happened have totally dissolved, some are still rather alive and thus still affecting the current situation;

that in order to have a real future, we need to consciously not allow our past to affect us so that we don’t go in circles….

….

maybe it is not as impossible / difficult as we imagined,

maybe the divine plan is already unfolding….

yes, though the One Consciousness has manifested into horrible forms / events… beyond human imaginations, let’s have faith that it will wake up from this nightmare one day, maybe much sooner than we expect.

together, we dwell in the unmanifested timeless, spaceless, formless pure unconditioned consciousness where all is possible. it is in this no-thing ness that thy will be done, thy kingdom come….

Blessings be to all!

a blessed place

Hong Kong is such a blessed place. weather is very mild. never too hot / cold. rain seldom last long.

even after a night’s heavy rain / thunderstorm, we are often greeted with beautiful sunrise; or it may rain heavily in the morning, with an amazing display of sunset / wonderful views of white clouds hovering over mountains after rain stopped.

may we all be blessed with the same resilience, that we have the strength and wisdom to embrace all, yet never get trapped in unconsciousness for too long.

space, valley

i always enjoy watching the sea / mountain/ sky….

every time i am reminded Eckhart’s teachings : be the space / valley to allow all to happen. accept totally what is, no matter how challenging / “bad” it is, for all have a place in the awakening of human consciousness.

a major shakeup is needed before the divine order can be restored; as in our physical bodies, a painful detox process sometimes is needed to purify the system.

the more we embrace it willingly, the faster the transformation occurs.

may we all be blessed with much wisdom, love and power to co-create a world of joy, peace, harmony….

Dawn

Dawn is a wonderful time of a day.

there are periods when rash was so severe that i could only sleep about 1-2 hours a day. watching the sky turns bright with ice pads to alleviate the discomfort becomes a big reward / best medicine.

from total darkness to the first glimpse of light, colors of sky /cloud turns white, blue, pink, black… + birds and cicadas singing…

so peaceful, hopeful, joyful….

a wonderful display by nature every 24 hours reminding us that there is always hope regardless of how dreadful / disappointing the previous day was / current situation is.

i can’t help but to express deep gratitude to the Universe.

may we all take time to appreciate this wonderful gift that we often take for granted and overlooked, and be reassured that all is well, this too shall pass, we are always and forever one….

good boy

we were taught to obey parents, teachers, other rules… when we were small. at least at our generations. kids who conform are considered “good” and will be well liked by adults.

when we entered the work force, there are various rules / orders to follow esp. in disciplinary forces or in big organisations.

what will u do if , say, u r a policeman but was asked to open fire to peaceful protesters? or a medical staff requested to disclose personal information of injured demonstrators to the police?

often a difficult decision when our roles / form identity clash with our conscience .

takes lots courage and often a high price to say no, and much wisdom to get around.

very glad to know at least there are incidence of this. people are brave and conscious enough to act against unreasonable authority and be “bad guy”.

how irony is that those who suppose are “good guys” behaved as bad guys, while those accused of being bad guys turned out not that bad!

may we all be freed from our conditioned mind and be able to perceive , think and act intelligently by often connecting to the Source that is within us all all the time.

Blue Blue Sky

i always enjoy looking at the sky, various color / shape of the clouds, sunrise, sunset…clouds that hover above mountains after rain, lightning…

occasionally, amidst white and black clouds, there is an opening, kind of like a gateway to heaven where the blue sky appears either as a hole, or a horizontal line.

i always interpret that as a signal from above to remind us that all is well despite all challenges.

yes, humans have hurt / killed/ tortured each other in unbelievable ways over many years. this big mass of unconsciousness is still doing lots of damages to people at different parts of the world nowadays.

it is easy to condemn those who inflicted the pain on others. but remember they are often victims themselves having very painful childhood experience. not many can transcend that. many more passed it on.

as Eckhart said, no one can act beyond one’s consciousness. and on a larger perspective, all those sufferings are kind of necessary evils that ultimately lead to a mass awakening.

may we all learn from all the past painful lessons, and remember that our true essence is the same, though sometimes obscured. it might take a long time and a big force to wake up those who have been dreaming / sleeping for so long.

have faith, however, that it will happen over time. for that is part of human evolution.

each of us can contribute by connecting more often with our essence identity (instead of form identity). together we shine to drive away darkness, liberate people from fear, the need for power / control .. so that everyone can enjoy the basic human rights each deserves.

God Bless Hong Kong

Hong Kong people made history again when 2 million protested peacefully against the extradition bill on 16 June 2019, 1 week after a 1 million turnout the previous sunday

it was a hot Father’s Day. many parents joined also.

sure the whole world was moved by how orderly and sensibly the event happened, esp. when the crowd parted automatically to allow ambulances to go through.

i salute to all those who joined. particularly glad to see the younger generation care so much about this city, instead of just dressing up nicely, taking photos and post on social media… (which is a rather common scene in more affluent places in china)

may we all remain faithful, hopeful, and see the positive even in “bad situations”. if we had not been pushed to the corner, HK people probably will not be so united to defend their basic human rights.

if all goes well, many will take for granted the freedom and prosperity that HK has long enjoyed.

by chance or by fate, this small city has become focus of the world / battlefield of all major powers.

we are fighting not only for our own freedom, but probably the big unconsciousness behind a powerful regime.

May Light Shine Through.

I am that I am

I am the Light of the World

each of us can light up the world

all support from overseas is well received. Together we create a more loving, sane, harmonious, peaceful and joyful world.

Blessings be to All!

Wonderful Hong Kong People

Hong Kong is truly a special place. for historical reasons, colonized by UK, returned to China in 1997 under “one country two systems”.

such a small crowded place with sky high property price, people live in peace, businesses flourish, …

i was 100% “made in HK”. for over half a century, this is my home.

when we were small, most people were not rich. there is a famous “under the Lion Rock” spirit with which everyone worked hard, remained hopeful, positive… study hard, get a good job, improve family finances…

that’s why HK people sometimes considered very money oriented, not very interested politics.

that was until 89.6.4. event in Beijing. 30 years later, HK is still the place where annual vigil is held.

the 97 handover witnessed massive emigration.

personally we were also given a chance to leave for Singapore, but chose to stay. our older generation, who had more first hand experience of what happened under the communist party rule, chose to leave.

22 years past. things still seem ok in general until the very recent proposed amendment of extradition law that raised concerns from all parts of the world, and various types of organisations in HK. something that has never happened before.

religious groups, teacher associations, lawyers, business sector….

more than one million took to the street on 9 June peacefully

then alas, the government decided to press on with the reading.

people seem like to have reached the boiling point. when nothing happened after obeying rules of the games for so long and use every means to voice all concerns / suggestions, violence appears to be the last resort.

of course no one wants to see such a chaotic HK. Most HK people are sensible, loving, caring individuals. when their basic rights are endangered, however, they will certainly stand up to defend their freedom / safety / human rights… and this lovely place they still considered home.

u all can help by sending lovely blessings. thoughts are energies. all good vibes will certainly be received.

Consciousness/ Light shall prevail. It’s only a matter of time and how.

Blessings be to all !!

when no law is needed

I long for the time when human beings become so developed that no law is needed.

when everyone so conscious, loving, self-motivated … that no one will harm another

when everyone works towards the highest good for all

when “otherness” disappeared and there is only “we”

not only among fellow human beings, but mother earth, even the cosmos.

no contract needed as everyone is trust worthy, honest…

then life will certainly be much more simple, joyful, easy… and we shall all start living and flourish.
