The Ultimate Lesson

Posted on by Sat Nam

If Earth is a school, what are we here to learn?

skills, knowledge? how to get rich, famous, be liked by many?

If there is purpose of life, what is it?

To me, life seems to be a journey of self discovery. through various challenges / sufferings we discover aspects of ourselves which otherwise will be overlooked / dormant : inner strength, perseverance, faith, hope, compassion, …

Realizing who we are at the core enables us to function with much greater ease despite external challenges / circumstances. We also naturally become the vibration to balance / uplift the world knowingly / unknowingly.

May more of us turn our attention / awareness inward and be more often connected with the Source / the One / All-that-is / the unmanifested / timeless, spaceless formless pure consciousness. …

then this world will certainly become a much joyful and peaceful place

Laugh out Loud

Posted on by Sat Nam

My daughter has great sense of humor. we often LOL on the street esp. after seeing some very unconscious behavior.

it is very interesting to see how the others respond. some showed a smile, kind of like infected, while others look at us like aliens! haahahah

isn’t life already challenging enough to be taken so seriously?

laughter might not only the best medicine but a very powerful tool to dissolve / transform hostility / anxiety / suspicion …

laugh at the absurdity, seriousness, madness of ourselves and others…

help lighten up the world to make it a more sane place.

The Journey

Posted on by Sat Nam

Life seems to be a series of acquisition and letting go.

We were born with very little apart from our physical bodies. Over the years, we accumulate foods, knowledge, skills, belief systems, people, materials…

somehow, at a certain time, either these people / places / things leave us, or we choose to leave them.

It seems that it is not how much we have acquired that promote inner joy / peace / health, but rather how much we are able to let go :

the need to be right / understood / agreed to / approved / conform / liked / treated well / special / superior / change others…and ultimately, our physical bodies.

only then can we stay joyful / peaceful / healthy… regardless of external circumstances while we still have a physical form, and a smooth transition back to the Source is possible.

Beyond Form Identity

Posted on by Sat Nam

i wonder, what kind of world this will become if everyone enjoys equal pay, social status, respect… regardless of what u do. that a janitor will be seen as equally important as a lawyer, doctor, accountant….

sometimes it is heart breaking to see that the majority of human is still so totally identify with everything on the surface : our family / education background, possessions, occupations, abilities, social connections, physical appearance, countries, gender… We forgot we share the same true essence, thus try our very best to be “superior”, resulting in all kinds of unnecessary competitions, comparison, jealousy, imbalances, insanity …

is a bird in anyway better / superior than a fish just because it can fly /sing ? or more colorful or have a nest?

when will we ever learn that we all are incomparably unique, various manifestations of the same One Consciousness?

only when one becomes aware of one’s essence identity will one truly respect each form, be it a human, an animal, a flower, a cup… that all our actions will become more sane and loving, that the highest good of all will be served instead of personal interests….and there will be less boundaries but greater oneness.

may we all be showered with greater universal consciousness esp. for the younger generations, so that we all realised each of us is only a small particle in the universe. there is no need for a big ego .

only then will harmonious co-existence of all life forms be possible without a big shakeup.

The Invaluable Ordinary Life

Posted on by Sat Nam

when my daughter was about 7 / 8 years old, i lived a very ordinary and routine life. like many other full-time moms, the whole focus was on the kids. everyday is tuned to school / activity schedules.

we lived near a riverside then. very often i would have some free time strolling along the promenade when i was alone, watching a boat collecting rubbish along the river leisurely, sometimes with a big egret as a company standing on its top!

a common thought i had then was : is that all to life? do i spend my time like this for the rest of my life?

the universe showed me how “exciting” life can be, when about 6/ 7 years ago, i was forced into a deep, fast and intense detox, triggered by simply attending a 2-day course on akashic record.

what followed was truly beyond imagination. for years, rash will appear any where in the body any time, making me unable to simply function as a human being . could not eat nor sleep…

all sorts of healing modalities were tried. simple, high tech…

heart-felt appreciation to my husband who has stood by my side all along with all kinds technical, financial, emotional support…

it took me a few years to get back to a more sane life, before another challenging period, during which, in just 3 -4 years, we experienced 2 home moves, sale of the flat we spent so much time to create and lived in for 9 years, said goodbye to our 14-year-old car that grew together with my daughter, saw my daughter becoming full-fledged daring young adult, went abroad to further university study in 2 countries, a surprising out of hometown post for my husband, which leave me all alone in my birth place most of the time and frequent travelling between the 2 cities. ., the ascension of my dad….

now with a much earlier than expected graduation of my daughter, she is now ready to move on to another new chapter in life.

it is such a rewarding experience to see her grow so much in more than 2 decades into a kind, loving, daring, wise, conscious young adult.

the physical challenge does re appear from time to time, yet with the help of all spiritual teachers, new healing tools developed by my husband, and all that i have learnt and applied on the way, i am now able to face it with greater ease.

it’s almost like looking back into a previous life when i re-visit the same place where i used to watch the boat peacefully sailing along the river.

appreciate the ordinary. don’t take it for granted. for it is very often that only when something is taken away from us that we realised how much we are enjoying.

a cup of tea, a breath of fresh air, wonderful sunlight, flowers, birds, other wonderful beings around us…

there is phrase in the movie ” shine” that strike me rather deeply : money can’t buy u everything.

how much will you accept to give up a leg, an arm… be paralyzed?

that is how much most of us are enjoying everyday.

start living now!

What Really Matters

Posted on by Sat Nam

When we were small, a candy might matter a lot. As we grow older and get into schools, marks, approval from teachers, parents… then probably how we look / attractive to the opposite sex, .. after we graduate, what type of jobs we can find, how fast and how much possessions we accumulate….

In chasing we considered important, we easily overlook / sacrifice our health, peace, joy, … more importantly, fail to really live.

There is certainly no doubt that all these external goodies might enhance our lives, but it is much more important to always remember who we are at the core. that we are not our bodies, minds, possessions, knowledge, abilities, background, .. .and that nothing / no one ultimately guarantee joy and peace, but our constant connection with our true essence.

Thanks to Eckhart and Sadhguru, i am now able to live a much peaceful and joyful life, as i become more aware of my own thoughts and feelings, and often remember that it is the quality of our actions (i.e. how conscious we are when we do something, including speaking, writing…), rather than what we do, that really matters.

Hello!

Posted on (Updated by Sat Nam

Namaskar everyone.

This is suppose to be a private conversation between my daughter and i . To leave her something before i leave this physical body.

Turned out she wanted me to share it so much with others that i finally decided to have it go public after much hesitation.

so here i am, writing to express, instead of to impress, sharing with all those who might be attracted to this site, every little or big things that i have experienced over half a century.

lessons learnt, casual thoughts, crazy ideas….

hope you might be a little uplifted, awakened, .. tuned in more with your true essence….

it is my wish, or more accurately, wish of the One Consciousness, to plant this little seed at this divine time : a day before Buddha’s Birthday and Mother’s Day, so that it will continue to flourish for many years to come.

Namskar
