OVERCOMING ANGER
OM MANI PADME HUM
The world is in great need of goodwill amongst men. This is indeed the troubled age and sufferings will continue to be until and unless man has learned the lessons arising from negative mental states.
STOP LIVING IN FEAR OF THE FUTURE
- Take care of the present to take care of the future
- The right mental attitude can make life positive, meaningful, and wonderful
- Learn from the pains, difficulties and problems of life to understand the truths of life, which lead one to the Path of Knowledge and Wisdom
IT HAS BEEN A YEAR OF LEARNING AND EXPERIENCING
Dharma seeds have been planted and one’s interest in Kuan Yin practice has been stirred to apply one's dharma knowledge to serve and to pray for the benefit of all living beings. These activities bring on spiritual progress, to build better relationship with others, make life meaningful and purposeful. Yet there are much more to learn and much more to do.
THE DHARMA ROUTE TO TRUE HAPPINESS
OM MANI PADME HUM
Happiness in life is what every being wishes for, but they do not know how to attain it. This is because they do not even understand what happiness is and so they are ever in the blind search for what is not truly understood by them.
AN ILLUSTRATION OF TRUE CULTIVATION
You rise, you fall, by yourself you get up and strive on. Initially, with Divine Mother’s guidance, following Her footsteps, with intensifying efforts, you learn, you grow, then you are on your own, gaining merits, perfecting virtues and raising wisdom along the Way.
MAKING VOWS AND VEGETARIAN DIET
AME LAGA AH HUM
It is not important whether you are going to observe the vegetarian diet or not, until you have made a commitment to observe this practice. In the past, many people get into making vows which they have not given full thoughts to them.
SUFFERINGS ARE OPPORTUNITIES FOR LEARNING AND GROWTH
- To see suffering as a good condition to awaken one’s materialistic mind to spirituality
- To learn and gain wisdom from witnessing or experiencing sufferings and its lessons
- To understand and to remove the root causes of sufferings
THE SECRET TO A CALM MIND
Just practise loving kindness towards one and all, and be contented as the changing nature of the mind leads to desires that can never be satisfied and therefore causing more mental anguishes.
DEVELOP AND IMPROVE ONE’S AFFINITY WITH OTHERS
How does one get to be likable by others? Why are some who seem to have no affinity with others? How often do people put some thoughts to their natures that may determine their happiness?
MARRIAGE IS FOR TWO PERSONS TO LEARN ABOUT LIFE AND EACH OTHER
Marriages are said to be created by heaven. In all religions of the world, ‘marriage’ is a sacred act that binds two persons together causing them to live and to share their lives together.
