Unlock The Secrets to Your Soul
The curious heart-winged butterfly loves to experience everything on Earth. It feels as if it is deliciously sampling a huge buffet filled with the toppings of life. It understands the art of living happily. However, just when it thought it understood the laws of nature perfectly, the butterfly unwittingly ventured into a world that was totally unknown to it before. With an increasingly open mind, it flew into different dimensions, auric layers and astrals.
Benefits To Meditation
(The temple grounds of The Singapore Buddhist Lodge, where I was yesterday.)
“Meditation is like having a spa for your brains. Your brain lasts longer. And you don’t have to worry about degenerating brain cells even after 40 years old.”
These were the opening words to the Bliss Out Meditation workshop that I attended last evening. The speaker was Ajahn Brahm, head abbot of the Bodhinyana Monastery in Western Australia, on a stopover in Singapore. Ajahn Brahm is the spiritual patron to The Buddhist Fellowship, a local non-sectarian Buddhist organisation of which I volunteer my writing services to.
Mouths Are Flapping
(Mouths flapping during my kids’ Buddhist Class last Sunday; limevelyn)
Four monks were meditating in a monastery. All of a sudden, the prayer flag on the roof started flapping.
The youngest monk came out of his meditation and said: “Flag is flapping.”
A more experienced monk said: “Wind is flapping.”
Ideas For Soul Growth In 2009
(A Collage of Images That Were Taken in 2008)
I started the new year in 2009 in contemplation: How would I choose to live it? What are my plans? Do I even bother with precise calculations for goal setting, since 2008 turned out to be pretty unexpected? A review of my experiences in 2008 is in order.
Affirm Universal Truths For Financial Abundance
Frederic, a reader to this blog, shared that embracing specific Truth statements can help in the healing of our physical bodies. He also said that the same concept applies to all areas of life i.e. relationships, finance, family, etc. On the blogosphere, I have been reading about how people are forced to make drastic cuts in their spendings, in the light of the recent financial turmoil. In the newspapers, I read headlines about pending wage cuts and retrenchments. Hence, I decided to interview Frederic to find out if there are Truth statements that we can use to improve our bank balance.

My Out-of-Body Experiences
Slowly I awoke to the strangest sensation. It was as if my body was disconnected from the rest of me. My vision was not quite clear but I was able to see my right hand flung over a pillow. At the same time, I found myself not having physical control of any bodily movement. I experienced an odd separation between body and spirit. My mind was talking in the background, attempting to assess the situation. If anything, I could sense my spirit hovering near my body; close, but not close enough to know that I was One and whole.

Be Careful What You Wish For or You Just May Get it so the saying goes!
Seated quietly in a romantic corner of a dimly lit restaurant was a married couple in their 60s. They brought their glasses of champagne together in a toast. There was every reason to celebrate. It was their 30th wedding anniversary that day.
In a whiff of smoke, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared before them, hovering over the table. She said, “For being such an exemplary married couple and for being loving to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a wish.”

Then, one day, he met with a motor bike accident one day. It was an accident, which was near fatal. He did survive however; but had to amputate his right arm, the arm that he used to paint with.
