Miracle, miracle, miracle

Just few days ago, I was looking back to year 2014.  I wanted to see how the year has been.  Honestly, it wasn't that great. Just as if things were already at the worst when I sprained my ankle and this time it never seem to heal no matter how long and what I did, then I got the most terrible flu for the year.   But today, it seems that my luck came back.  Forget about the flu for a second.   Miracle No.1 We have to go to LHDN to do some stamping for his visa and work application.  Initially I took half day off to do this.  But because of the flu, I got MC instead.  So, early in the morning, we went to LHDN and got a nice parking in the basement.  Then when we took the number, a lady came to exchange her number with us because she wasn't prepare with her documents.  We went first and got things done within 10 minutes.  Went to the parking machine and found we don't have to pay a single cent because we were very quick. Miracle No.2 Sin

Today is a post dedicated to the people around me.  As I was walking to my office, I learned that there are so many persons in my life who taught me valuable lessons and there's so much to learn from them still.  And I am not talking about teachers. So, here's a post dedicated to them and thank you for your valuable lessons.  There's still much more to learn everyday from you all.   Blanket thanks to colleagues, old and new Besides teaching me at work, in life also I learned so much from you all.  Learn to be strong when faced with problems.  Learn to prove myself and to keep on improving myself.  Learn that beneath all the difficult tasks at work, lies great responsibility at home.  And through some of the bosses, I learn to direct anger only at issues and situation and not at persons.   Special mention to Kavita My colleague at work who sits next to me.  Thank you for cracking jokes everyday and lighten the mood at the office.  You have taught me that in

Discretion

Today we are going to talk about discretion.   What is discretion? Discretion  means that you must choose the things which are good for you. which are benevolent to you, which are good for the collective, which are good for your ascent. On the contrary, the people who have no  discretion  fall into the traps of wrong type of people. Like say, Freud. I mean, to an Indian, Freud, nobody can believe that you can go to such  a nonsensical idea. But people accepted Freud more than they could accept Christ because the  discretion  was completely missing. If they had that traditional  discretion  in them they would have been saved. It is that traditional  discretion  is the thing that comes through Ida nadi. (Hamsa Swamini Puja, 1988) OK, forget about that for now.  You see, sometimes, somethings happened in the social media which prompt me to research for a further understanding.  And during the research process, I would find a very beautiful talk of Shri Mataji on that issue.  

The sequence is the same, but the consequences are different.

Another self-thought-introspection-post. Have you ever wondered, how come things happened the way it is?  Have you ever have a day where you feel it's truly not your day?  A day where everything goes wrong? What if the day didn't go wrong but was right all the way? Because we really do not know what's install for us for the day.  Sometimes it's a bad thing that happened, say an accident.  But that could be a bhoot or badha or something is wrong with us that day.  Sometimes it's like you lost your way and then found you are actually not lost, but just circling to vibrate the place, maybe?  Or for you to learn a new road? Here's my experience.  I was feeling rather upset that things were going downhill.  Nothing seems to be improving and it's just one bad luck after another. So, we took a break and stayed at a yogi's place for over a week.  During the break, we broke (pun intended) some things.  After the break, things still didn't

To react or not to react

The answer is of course not to.  But it's the same with Shakespeare, "To be or not to be" from Hamlet.  Prince Hamlet contemplates whether to die or not to die, having complained about life but realised the alternative option could be worse.  The obvious answer is of course to live. That's the choice we are given.  Our free will.  To decide what to do.   As Sahajis, we can also make mistakes.  We are not accident-free either.  Some would say it's a bhoot or negativity.  Maybe it's certain chakra's qualities still lacking, i.e lack of discretion, lack of wisdom, lack of discrimination. It can be as simple as a click of the mouse.  Sometimes after clicking the mouse, then you realised it's a mistake.  Some mistakes can be reverted.  Some cannot. Sometimes it's not a physical action.  It could be an emotional one, like whether you want to react or not. I have a weakness that I react too quickly only to realised it too late.  In Sh

Enlightened attention

Please stop arguing about whether we should or should not do something to false gurus.  By arguing it doesn't solve anything but just make the false guru stronger. Those who can do something, then can try paper burning and shoebeating.  It works wonders in my recent crisis.   Those who do not want to do anything, can just leave it and surrender to Shri Mataji. Ultimately, She is the slayer of rakshasa, the destroyer of demons and the remover of negativities. Our enlightened attention is needed in areas where crisis are happening.  The world needs us.  By proving you are right is not helping anything now.   Please stand together and unite to make this world a better place.  By complaining, quarreling, disagreeing will definitely not unite us collectively, let alone to fight the bad guys. I was getting a massive headache just reading about all the disagreements, rude statements, proving who is right or not. It's time to get our act together.  Bandhan,

To err is human, to forgive Divine

Something happened and my faith in Shri Mataji elevated again.  We are so blessed to be in Divine's attention because we are Sahaja Yogis.  Shri Mataji has always protected us right from the beginning. I never truly understood the word 'Maya' until now.  Even then, I may not understand the whole picture completely.  God is great!  His actions may not be understood or decoded by anyone.  But in the end, it's all God's will and it's for our ascent. Without going too much detail into it, here's what it is. Since 1st Jan this year, there has been some misunderstanding between my hubby and another party.   Verbal abuses and harsh words were thrown at him.  There was a huge quarrel and argument.  Although it ended peacefully, somehow I felt there were undercurrents.  Since that day, I prayed to Shri Mataji, please don't let me go through this again and just let us live in peace. Sure enough, when there were subsequent disagreements and argumen

First time with Shri Mataji

I love reminiscing these beautiful memories with Shri Mataji.  Though not many, it was enough to last me a life time.  Some past are worthy of remembering while some past need to be ditch immediately.   I remembered the first time I got the chance to be near to Shri Mataji.  It was in 2001, Christmas Puja in Ganapatipule.  After the puja, the norm was to offer a present to Shri Mataji.  Each country representatives would get a chance to go on stage to offer.   I was hoping very hard that I would be selected to represent Malaysia.  But, I was very new and young.  Anyhow, 2 other Malaysian yogis were selected in the last minute.  I remembered telling the yogini to please tie her hair up as it was very messy and not appropriate to be in front of Shri Mataji.  Deep in my heart, I was envying her lucky chance and I said in my heart, "If only I get the chance to go on stage, that experience would be enough to last me a life time." Finally, they went and queued.  Af

Happy Diwali

This is a belated message.  It has totally slipped my mind. Recently, I watched Diwali Puja 1991 in Cabella.  The speech was light-hearted and full of joy.  So much so that I shared this joy with the collective and suggested this video to be played for our Diwali puja. Sharing with you all here.  Enjoy! May this Diwali light brightens our heart and filled them with joy.  May darkness be eradicated.  May hatred disappeared.  May love spreads.

A sari incident with Shri Mataji

I don't have a lot of memories in the presence of Shri Mataji.  I didn't have much chance to present many things for Her.  I have always heard lots of beautiful experience that happened in Her presence.  Some miracles, some amazing experiences.  So I have only this one experience that happened in 2006 Los Angeles before Shri Ganesha Puja which is forever etched in my mind. I was picked to offer the Lakshmi basket to Shri Mataji before puja.  In actual fact, I wasn't supposed to be the one.  But the person who was selected earlier had to do aarti for Shri Mataji and so I got the chance to take her place. I remembered very clearly, all the ladies offering Lakshmi basket to wait on the top floor of the Sheraton or Renaissance Hotel.  While waiting, I helped a lady from Hong Kong to adjust her sari.  Many of the ladies were still fussing over the Lakhsmi basket to perfect the decoration and arrangement.   Me and another sister did the Lakshmi basket earlier that da

Have we forgotten that we are yogis?

Recent events happened on Facebook, Whatsapp and local collective has made me rather sad.  I know I should not be reacting and should be witnessing them.  Here we are looking at Shri Mataji's photo everyday and now it's easily accessible on Facebook and Whatsapp, and there we are forgotten that we are all brothers and sisters of the same Mother and fighting and arguing like no other. Not pointing fingers at anyone, but looking at general, have we forgotten all that was taught by Shri Mataji?  To love?  To be compassionate?  To forgive?   What's the point of giving SR to non-yogis excessively when we can't even love our own people at home?   If a yogi didn't get the recognition or support that he/she wants, and he/she voiced it out on social media to garner the support of other yogis who doesn't know him/her and use that to attack yogis/yoginis who didn't support him/her in the first place.  Isn't this ego? If a yogi is no longer a member
