Can LOVE be shared equally for all?

Love is one of the important thing that one cannot live without. Children misbehave due to lacking of love. Partners hurt due to abuse of love. Family members suffer because of losing someone they love. Love hurts but love heals too. So, how do we define love?

It all begins from Family Love when it shares among a family members since a baby is born. Then, it extends to Friends Love when it grows and starts to mix with others whom are not its family members. Later, it grows to Couple Love when it meets someone it loves and if it continues, it goes back to Family Love as a new born has arrived. And the patterns continues..

Does Love only restrict to this pattern? 

Does Love only happens among family members, friends and couples? 

Does Love have to focus only to these groups? 

Do you know what kind of Love hurt?

Do you know why does these Love hurt?  

The kind of Love hurts most is the Love with the most attachment which is usually related to Family, Couple & Friends Love. These Love hurts because of too much attachment, focus and expectation. 

You suffer when you attach too much especially when one of these Love leaves you. 

You suffer when you focus too much by putting too much time, effort and energy just by hoping these Love will be with you forever but nothing is permanence. 

You suffer when you expect too much or high on these Love which is so important to you but when things gone wrong, you couldn't accept it and feel disappointed.

The Truth is Relationship just like any other things in this world is impermanence. In a Family Love, Couple Love or Friend Love, someone might leave due to the Natural Suffering of a human being; Born, Old, Sick, Death. Separating is part of a relationship. Someone might not be perfect to cherish and shower others with perfect love. Expectation and promises might not be able to fulfilled. And many more..

So, since Love is impermanence but it is something very important to have, why don't we share it. Share it with others which are not our family, friends, couple or relatives. Share it with strangers. Share it with those who need it. Share it with animals. Share it with sentient beings. Share it with all...

Besides, that's the purpose of life, right? To help others. Helping others doesn't focus only on cash or monetary or material but most people are hungered for love and attention. And that's the most valuable and precious thing that all sentient beings ever wanted, agree? And it is for free.

If you love too much, you will focus too much.

If you focus too much, you will expect too much.

If you expect too much, you will attach too much.

If you attach too much, you will hurt too much.

So, love should be shared equally for all without expecting anything in return unconditionally. 

Remember, to love is to be loved. To be loved is to love. Everything begins from you. The more love you give, the more love you receive. Even better, if you don't expect at all. True happiness comes when you least expect it. So, go ahead and love equally for all. 

May all be well and be loved. 

Meeting His Holiness The 17th Gyalwa Karmapa Trinley Thaye Dorje

It was such a blessing and chance of a lifetime to meet one of the most respected and holiest head monk of the world from Tibet in Malaysia His Holiness The 17th Gyalwa Karmapa Trinley Thaye Dorje on 24th May 2012 at Berjaya Times Square Hotel, Kuala Lumpur during the Thanksgiving Vegetarian Dinner.

Everything was just so coincidence or everything was arranged as planned. I realize about this Dharma trip to Singapore on 25th May 2012 about a week ago before the event from facebook. I didn't hope much as it is impossible for me to meet H.H the 17th Karmapa from Tibet because I am working in Malaysia. All I did was to share this good news on facebook by posting it. Of course meeting monks especially from Tibet was one of my goal since I was awakened. I was so keen to meet monks and if can have the opportunity to learn from them. I didn't even have a chance to meet any other monks in Malaysia, how can I have chance to meet one of the highest head monk of the world from Tibet, never dare to think of it. Who am I qualify to be meet them? I am just an ordinary Buddhist layperson who has just starts to learn. 

However on the 23rd May 2012, a miracle happened. I received an sms from my ex-student about a Buddhist Vegetarian Charity Dinner on 24th May 2012 at Berjaya Times Square Hotel, KL. The most importantly, Karmapa will be attending. I was quite sure it was the same Karmapa that I linked on facebook as it was quite logic as he might dropped by to Malaysia on his way to Singapore on the 25th. Feeling excited but I rejected as I was still having financial problem as I couldn't afford to pay for the tickets. Besides, the tickets were sold in pair and I didn't have anyone to accompany me to go all the way to KL. So, I sent her back a message saying that I had something to attend.

Things are weird. After tiring working that afternoon, I took an afternoon nap. In my nap, I had a dream. I dreamt of my 3rd sister, Sally was talking about the same charity dinner as being invited by her friends. In the dream, I told her that my student asked me about the dinner but I rejected. Knowing her going, I felt like going too. Then, I woke up from my dream. I knew I must attend the dinner as it was so obvious that I really wanted to attend and my intention was only one, to meet HH the 17th Karmapa. So, I sent another message to my student to accept her invitation and asked her to reserve two tickets for me. Since my sister Sally was in my dream, I invited her to be my partner.

Before the event, I did some survey and research on who is the HH the 17th Karmapa and what does Karmapa means "the one who carries out buddha-activity" or "the embodiment of all the activities of the buddhas." In the Tibetan tradition, great enlightened teachers are said to be able to consciously arrange to be reborn as a teacher who can carry on the teachings of a predecessor in a prior life. Pursuant to this tradition, the Karmapas have incarnated in this form of manifestation body (Skt. nirmanakaya), for seventeen lifetimes, as of the present, and all have played the most important role in preserving and propagating the Buddhist teachings of Tibet. Prior to the birth of the first Karmapa, the arrival of a Buddhist master who would be known as the Karmapa had been prophesied by the historic Buddha Shakyamuni and the great tantric master of India, Guru Padmasambhava. Throughout the centuries, Karmapas have been the central figure in the continuation of the vajrayana lineage in general and Kagyu lineage in particular, and have played a very important role in the preservation of the study and practice lineages of Buddhism. (http://www.kagyuoffice.org/karmapa.html)

I was finally there. It took me almost 2 hours to reach Berjaya Times Square Hotel, KL from Klang due to the terrible traffic. I went there with my student and her younger brother. On our way, we shared some beautiful experiences on Buddhism since we had never met since her graduation. My sister Sally traveled separately from Damasara.

When I reached there, my focus was not other than to meet the Holiness. I observed closely and read about all the quotes written by Karmapa. I saw some monks outside before the ceremony start while waiting for the arrival of my sister. I was so keen to meet him. The feeling was like meeting a Super Star or even meeting a very important long lost master or family members. I was such a child.

He didn't show up outside the hall. I went to be seated inside the hall with my sister when she arrived. My eyes were still focused on his existence. The moment had arrived, the ceremony begun. Without hesitation, I grabbed my handphone and a camera and walked to the waiting lane for his arrival. When he walked, I continued to take as many pictures as possible. He was seated with other respected monks and VIPs from other centres. There were numerous of monks arrived on that day. Usually I was very exited with even meeting an ordinary monk but on that day, my focus was only on the Karmapa. I was so happy to be able to meet him. An opening performance of the top lion dances starts, but it didn't distract my attention to the holiness. I kept on taking pictures on the respected Karmapa. I was the only ordinary guest taking picures as I was surrounding by a group of professional photographers. And I was the only lady. I didn't  bother how and what others think as my focus was very clear, to meet him. I guess because I was the only lady, I captured his attention too, I gave him a respected nod. The feeling was like meeting a very respected Guru or Master of mine. I was in fact very nervous and excited as my hands were shaking terribly when I hold the camera. I have never been so nervous since my awakening as I have trained myself to be calm and peace at all time since I practice meditation. It was an exceptional one that day. I know meeting him was very important to me, it's a faith. 

During the dinner, there were  a lot of exciting and interesting performances held but my concentration was also on him. I even took a video of him during his speech. I felt it was really very honoured to have met him in Malaysia as not everyone has the chance to meet him. It was really a chance of a lifetime. Never know, when is my next opportunity. I saw some Buddhist offered the Karmapa something like flowers or scarfs to receive blessings from him, so I asked my student if there is anything that I can offer to him. I told her earlier that I wanted to take picture with him and asked her to help me to arrange that session as she was one of the volunteer there. She promised to help me by asking permission from the PIC. I wanted to offer him something but I didn't know what to offer. Suddenly, I thought of my self-publishing book that I kept some in my car booth, so I checked with my student if I can offer my book to him. My student said yes. So, I rushed back to my car to get the book and wrote a short message on a piece of paper to the respected HH The 17th Karmapa Trinley Thaye Dorje. 

Finally I had a chance to meet him with the help of my beloved student and the organizer. I was so excited and more than thankful. I knew I need to grab every opportunity possible as it was really a chance of a lifetime. I followed the PIC to the Karmapa's seat and offered my book to him. I was so speechless and didn't know what to say. All I did was telling him that I wrote the book myself and I am a teacher. I also seek his permission to take picture with him. I was so nervous but at the same time very happy and delighted to be able to meet his holiness. That's the only 2 minutes that I shared with him but it was truly worth. May Buddha bless him with great health and longevity. I really didn't know when will be the next time we meet again, even though I was really hoping to be his student and learn from him. I guess I just have to put this goal aside and continue to do what I suppose to do in Malaysia until I have another opportunity to meet him again.

Really thanks to those who help and support me achieving my spiritual goals. May all be well and happy.  

  

ANGER is the worst tangle!

Anger is the worst tangle! 

Anger is ugly! Anger is devil! Anger is dangerous! Anger is a trap! Anger is uncontrollable!


Have you ever been in Anger before? Or have you ever seen anyone in Anger before? How does it feel especially when it involves someone you loved? Do you feel comfortable? Do you feel irritating? Do you feel secure? Do you feel scared? Do you feel angry too? 


Anger is an emotion related to one's psychological interpretation of having been offended, wronged or denied and a tendency to undo that by retaliation. (Wikipedia) 


There are many reasons lead to Anger. Some of them includes being accused, scolded, blamed, teased, bullied or many more. More people couldn't control themselves when they are in Anger. They are then lead to uncontrollable actions unconsciously. These actions can be dangerous when it includes physical actions. They might lead to hurting, hitting or even killing someone.  


Many parties think that Anger is nothing or something natural. Some even think that Anger is something good to release tension. They think it is a must to be Angry. Anger might be a method used by certain people to get what they want, for example to voice up dissatisfaction. Some children use Anger to demand for their toys. Is it really okay to be Angry? 


Nowadays, commercial supports Anger as something that we look up or something rational like the famous cartoon characters Angry Birds or even The Incredible Hulk. They are certainly unaware of the bad influence on it. 


Anger if it is not controlled will lead to disaster. There are a lot of abused cases involving family members that ended up with night mare. For example, an angry husband accidentally killed his wife during a fight. He then realized his mistake but it was too late. He ended up serving himself in a jail and his children were left alone miserably. 


Is this the kind of life that you wanted? Do you want to be the one who regret? Do you want to be blamed for your action? Is it healthy to be Angry?

From the video, we can see how a child lost his patience to his elderly dad when being asked many times.  Love your parents. Be patience. Don't get angry if he asks many times repeatedly as you too asked many times as a young child when you began to learn and your parents answered you patiently. Be patience. Feel people's shoes, feel their feeling when you lost your temper and patience to them. Feel them. 


In Buddhism, Anger is one of the three poisons – the other two are greed and ignorance – that are the primary causes of the cycle of samsara and rebirth. Purifying ourselves of anger is essential to Buddhist practice. Further, in Buddhism there is no such thing as “righteous” or “justifiable” anger. All anger is a fetter to realization. Yet even highly realized masters admit they sometimes get angry. This means that for most of us, not getting angry is not a realistic option. We will get angry.
( http://buddhism.about.com/od/basicbuddhistteachings/a/anger.htm )

One more reason that Anger should be avoided is not to be fallen into the lowest realms of The Wheel of Life which is the Hell Realm. 


The hell realm is characterised by acute aggression. We build a wall of anger between ourselves and our experience. Everything irritates us, even the most innocuous, and innocent statement drives us mad with anger. The heat of our anger is reflected back on us and sends us into a frenzy to escape from our torture, which in turn causes us to fight even harder and get even angrier. The whole thing builds on itself until we don't even know if we're fighting with someone else or ourselves. We are so busy fighting that we can't find an alternative to fighting; the possibility of alternative never even occurs to us. 
( http://www.buddhanet.net/e-learning/intro_bud.htm )

To overcome Anger, one needs to always mindful of his action. Beware of the rise of Anger and try to control it with inner peace and patience. A meditation will help to calm one's mind and calm down Anger.

As a conclusion, Anger provides only harmfulness and not advantages to ourselves and the people surround us. So, why not learn to ease it since it has no advantages at all. Control your Anger now slowly until you are perfected control the Anger in you. Replace it with Calmness, Peace, Patience and Compassion. All the best!

DEATH - Something that we are truly scared?

D E A T H - 

Something that we are truly scared? 

We celebrate and blessed with joy when a baby is born. We mourn and saddened when someone passes away.  The true is whenever a baby is born, it is also the beginning of a death. Human can not be escaped with the Truth Suffering which are Born ; Old ; Sick ; Death. No living beings can be escaped from this sufferings. When there's a beginning, there's always an ending. On the other hand, when there's an ending, there's also a beginning. How does this happen? 

One must know that we are born into this world with this body which we called ours. We thought the body of ours are real, are permanence, are ours. Bear in mind that the body is not real, not permanence or not ours. Confused? What is really happening? We are just shifting from one body to another body from time to time. 

Then, who are we? What are we? If we are not the body which we think is us. 

We are inside the body. We are the mind. We are the master of the body. We have been living and shifting for many years in many forms. Maybe 2000, maybe 3000, or maybe 5000 years ago in many different forms of bodies like human bodies (just like we are now), animals, insects, hungry ghosts, hell, even God or Semi-God. Only those who are awakened know when their third eyes are opened. 

Even Buddha remembered his past lives when he was still under the illusion of self. Buddha was able to recount stories of his past lives. He achieved retro-cognitive powers. Here is one of his past life stories. ( http://reluctant-messenger.com/reincarnation-buddha.htm )

"In days gone by there was a wicked king who used to extort from his subjects all he could get; and he ordered one of his officers to lay the lash on a man of eminence. The officer little thinking of the pain he inflicted upon others, obeyed; but when the victim of the king's wrath begged for mercy, he felt compassion and laid the whip lightly upon him. Now the king was reborn as Devadatta, who was abandoned by all his followers, because they were no longer willing to stand his severity and he died miserable and full of penitence. The officer is the sick bhikkhu, who having often given offence to his brethren in the vihara was left without assistance in his distress. The eminent man, however, who was unjustly beaten and begged for mercy was the Bodhisatta; he has been reborn as the Tathagata. It is now the lot of the Tathagata to help the wretched officer as he had mercy on him." 

“Even death is not to be feared by one who has lived wisely.” - Buddha

So what does the statement made by Buddha meant? 

We come into this world with nothing. We leave this world with nothing except for one thing our KARMA (good or bad deeds). For those who have live their lives wisely by practicing all the good and compassionate deeds, one must not be afraid to be reborn into a lower realms like Animal Realms, Hungry Ghost Realms, Hell Realms, but they will be reborn into a higher realms like God Realms, Semi-God Realms or even Human Realms with higher achievement and prosperity. One also have an equal chance to practice until reaching enlightenment and be free from all the six realms as each of of them has different level of suffering. 

To know more about the Six Realms :

For more details of Rebirth and Reincarnation,

So, why afraid, find back the purpose of lives which is to help and benefit others and continue to do more good deeds. Live wisely!

There was a Buddha who asked his student "How much time left?"
His student answered "few days".
The Buddha asked the student to think again.
The student answered "a few hours".
"Think deeply", encouraged the Buddha.
The student finally answered "a breath"

There's no much time left. Life is unpredictable. Do it now before it's too late as it's only a breath time left. 

May you all be blessed with higher attainment to benefit all beings until reaching Nirvana. 

SADHU!   SADHU! SADHU!

I am an official Dharma Teacher

I am an official Dharma Teacher today. It was coincidence and unexpectedly. Now I know the true meaning of unexpected happiness when you least expect it. It happened out of sudden when I enrolled my kids to a Dharma School in one of the Buddhist Organization in Malaysia. Yes, all the while since my awakening, I was intended to be a Dharma Teacher. But somehow in my heart, I thought to myself as I am not qualified to be one. Who am I? I am just a beginner who has just realized and awakened about this spiritual path about 6 months ago. I did a lot of research and reading on my own about Buddhism since awakening. My love and passion towards this wonderful , meaningful and noble journey has deepen day to day. I am actually glad that I know so little as I will have more opportunity to learn as much as possible. Honest speaking, this is the first time I wish for myself, I have never prayed for anything for myself except for my family members and others. But somehow, this is my exceptional. I wish to be permanently with this Buddhist spiritual path until I reach Nirvana to help more sentient beings reaching enlightenment in their lives. I am happy that my prayer has been heard. Thank you, Lord Buddha.  May I be blessed with higher attainment to help end suffering among all beings reaching enlightenment. Sadhu! Sadhu! Sadhu!  

Quotes and Journal From My Facebook Since Awakening

"Buddha" in Sankrit literally means the awakened one. Here, to be awakened means his mind was fully awakened in the form of great compassion and wisdom - a wisdom about the true nature of reality and a compassion that encompasses all living beings. It is these qualities that are referred to here in the word Buddha - to be awakened.

I have actually stopped myself from receiving any helps from anyone but someone has awakened me today. We need a benefactor to help us achieving our dreams. I thought of that way because I didn't want to owe anyone anything but the true is receiving is actually giving too. Maybe the benefactor needs my help or skill to achieve his/her target too. It's a win win situation. Then I realise and I accept.

This is truly miracle and inspiring! Don't know why I have these "unexplainable" thoughts all these years. I know we are "related" and will be united under one God but I thought this is just my believe. Never knew that this video revealved and answered all my "abstract" belief. Moreover, I was told about my future this morning. God is showing me something Dato' and I think it's time and I am ready to dedicate it whole heatedly. 

(I used the term God because I was not realized yet) 

We are one from the very beginning and we will unite back as one very soon!

Life is actually a circle. Whatever you have encountered before, you'll encounter it again and it does not stop but continues to return when you reach back that circle.

If you really see within your sight, feel within your heart and think within your mind, you will see more things, more things around you that have not been discovered yet.

The same circle can be both good and bad. If we ignore it, it will return after a period a time when you reach back the full circle. If good, then it's great. If bad, then we must face and solve it properly before it return.

If good, we must grab it because it won't be that great as time is passing by and we are getting older. If we miss again, we need to wait for another round and sometimes can be too late because life is temporary.

             Do you believe in past lives or cause and effect? Your present life is the effect of your past life. Your present life is the cause of your next life and your next life is the effect of your present life.

With a focus mind practicing from meditation, you can help creating world peace by lessening sufferings among people. Let's unite and meditate.

Everything happens for a reason. You will know it when you understand the fundamental and origin of existing in this world.

Each of us is unique and has a purpose to be brought into this world. What is your purpose of life?

Punishment is not the best solution of everything but compassion, love and encouragement are.

Forgive, forgave and be forgiven. It starts from forgiving yourself before forgiving others.

We will go through different stages in our lives. The stages will be in a circle form. Once we have passed every stage, we will be back to the basic where we came from.

Stop sharing and spreading bad news and negativities that pollute our mind, heart and soul. Help to share and spread good news to help this world a better world. Appreciate it very much. P E A C E 

·          I've learnt that what we have and posses from the outside is just something surface and temporary. What we really have and posses comes from inside which is permanent.

Do good deeds. Speak good words. Think good thoughts.

Life is just about doing, speaking and thinking all the good and wonderful things in the world. Nothing more than these.

It's okay to feel lost or down sometimes as it's part of our lives. Just accept it and grab the moment to reflect deeply and meditate on how to improve in our lives that matters. Never give up.  

Now I know the true meaning of charity. Nothing is greater than be part of the goal to free all beings from sufferings and to reach universal peace. Admire the effort, time and determination of all the organizers and the participants. Life is truly wonderful. 

P E A C E 

The basic of giving is forgiving. The basic of forgiving is forgiving ourselves.

What we can see is just something surface. What we really live comes from within.

·     I'm going to continue my path no matter what. Ain't no mountain can't be climbed. Ain't no sea can't be crossed. Ain't no problem can't be solved. I'm going to finish, finish strong, steadily and calmly. This I promise to myself.

Helping people in needs is my passion and responsibility. P E A C E

         There's a fine line between LOVE and COMPASSION. Love comes from feeling; compassion comes from wisdom. Love is impermance but compassion permanence.

    Now I know the true meaning of charity. Nothing is greater than be part of the goal to free all beings from sufferings and to reach universal peace. Admire the effort, time and determination of all the organizers and the participants. Life is truly wonderful.  

       

         The basic of giving is forgiving. The basic of forgiving is forgiving ourselves.

            The three most POISONOUS things in our lives are greed, anger and ignorance.

Let it flow by itself as it is destiny to be. There's no use rushing. Time will decide when it is right. Be patience.

We are living in the world of cause and effect (Karma). First, learn to accept that the sufferings that we are facing now were the effects of our actions in the past. Then, seek for forgiveness and learn to let go. Lastly, do deeds and merits. With these, sufferings from all beings will be stopped and universal peace will be created. 

The 3 Learnings as according to Buddhism:

Discipline, Concentration and Wisdom

Discipline cures vice. Concentration cures confusion. Wisdom cures foolishness.

 Why people can't just let go and stop thinking about the past? Why they want to keep trapping themselves in this stressful and suffering lives? Why can't they just accept, forgive themselves and move on to be a better people as present is more important? Stop complaining, blaming and giving excuses! We should be thankful that we are given chance. Find solution is the only answer for now and not others!

·  We are the creator of our own world. If we live in hell, it's because we create hell within us. If we live in heaven, it's because we create heaven within us. No one else except ourselves.

In life, whatever we own regardless relationship, achievements and materials are impermanence and changing frequently. Being too attached with them will only result of never ending sufferings. 

If I know I have only 3 years left, I would live my life by the fullest and appreciate every little thing that I have surround me. I achieve that by setting very specific SMART goals, plan in details and take massive actions accordingly without looking back and I know I would achieve all my goals within 3 years. Why? Because I know I only have limited time, so I grab every opportunity possible and ultilize my time wisely without wasting any of them.

Life is actually filled with trials and errors. It is meant to test our patience and understanding of the message appears along our path. Just remember to remain positive no matter what as the result will be seen when the time is right.

We don't get everything that we give in return. The right way is to give without expecting anything in return.

We don't have to struggle too much to achieve something. The right way is to put enough effort and time to achieve something that we want. It is achievable when the time is right. Patience and persistency are what we need.

What we experience from the outside is the result of what we think within. If we think peace, we experience peace. If we think war, we experience war. It's just as simple as that and nothing more.

In Buddhism, love is based wisdom. This is called compassion.
