Mummy...mummy, why can't we see God?

Mummy, mummy....why can't we see God? one day, my boy asked me while he was watching his grandpapa reading his bible.

Oh, my child, All that you cannot see, hear or understand cannot be ruled out as non-existent. Even if you flash a powerful light in front of a blind man, he will see only darkness.

Oh, my child, all that you cannot see but feel are also in existing. Can you see air? Can you see love? But you know that there are there... We can feel them...

Likewise, people having no interest to know more about divinity or God is not at all interested to go further to understand. How can we human beings use our human brains to understand or describe our Creator? Our Creator who creates this universe and all its inhabitants? But if one closes one's eyes and try to listen to our inner inspirations inside our heart, you will feel something...yes...feel that special feeling...a feeling of connectedness...the spark of divinity that all of us possess...

Likewise, people having no faith will not perceive God even if you show God to them. They do not have eyes to see divinity and they proclaim that there is no divinity. A blind man can neither see his body nor describe his looks, but it does not follow that he has no body.

Thank you, mum, he smiled in agreement, embracing me hard, just to feel the spark of divinity in each other.

You believe, you achieve... we just command our senses to...

.......Believe is the secret to achieving to maximize our body senses.... to work well... easy...just command our senses to do so............

Every part of our body listens to our command too. Here is another interesting issue that is also a real story of how we make full use of our senses.



I have come across an aged couple, the husband over 70 years old, and the wife nearly 70. The wife is still robust and healthy and funny enough, no silver strains of hair can be found on her head. Her hearing terrific, most aged people over 70 have lost their hearing capabilities or some left only 30%.



The wife used to listen attentively to most conversations. She always makes full use of her ears to pick up any noise. I dare say that she loves to hear things and concentrated on her hearing instead of seeing. The more we use our senses, the more acute and skillful it becomes. Most old aged people have poor eyesight and hearing capabilities. So, it is a possible discovery that old people can hear as well as just anybody younger if they learn to make it happen.



Use it or lose it, our senses can be nursed to maintain at its best conditions. One shouldn’t dismiss our natural birth rights and forget our inner healing power that is an asset, a gift for all, a gift that all of us have.


I understand that the aged woman always tell herself that she can hear proper, she has the need to be able to hear everything, she wants her ears to be in top condition, and here it is, she has a perfect hearing ability. That was what I got from talking to her. She added, winkling her eyes, my eyesight is excellent too.... the secret is 'just to use it, or lose it.' self affirming? Positive thinking?

Positive affirmation works...

Positive self-affirmation works wonders....works miracles, if only you believe that it works, believe that it really really works.....



Self-affirmation works… positively commanding our immune systems to fight and win; seriously and keen in commanding them to work well, yes, it will work wonders, our inner self healing powers to be revealed…….so easily, just as our mind commanding our hands to pick up an object and it does the work without any hesitation..



"The double lid of my eye should be balanced… hmm, it will be balanced and will look nicer, I know it will be balanced. Everyday, I look into the mirror, self affirming my other eye to balance up the double lid and I know it would happen." I have been telling myself for many years every morning when I make up myself. After a few years, my double lid of both eyes becomes so balanced and nice. My self affirmation works. It was just a wilful wish, but it came true.



From my many years of experiences in the 4 dimensions of health, I have discovered this exciting fact, which is that all of us have a self inner healing power. This short article is more on the power of mind that commands certain things to happen in a logical way. Let me put it under mind power.



I used to share with my patients and friends that we can ‘command’ our body to do many activities that we want our body to do for us. Let’s understand this. Our mind or our brain is the mastermind, the workshop of all thoughts. A thought generates, let’s say, we want to pick up a pencil from the table. We think of getting the pen. Unknowingly our mind commands our right hand to pick up the pencil and the pencil is being picked up. That’s it, simple…but..



Looking into the details, our mind does the commanding job and commands our hand to pick up the object. It is as simple as that. Talking about illness or diseases, we can also command our body immune system to do the same thing. We just need to command our fighting cells to fight those unwanted intruders. The fun of it is that it can also work out right. When someone repeats to oneself that one cannot afford to fall sick and would not want to fall sick, he or she won’t fall sick that easy too.



Modern cures and treatments have too strong an impact on us, believing that whatsoever sickness or diseases should be treated by a doctor. If the strong belief is there, we have to let the doctors do the job. Believing in doctors will be fine, because it will also fastens one’s recovery.



But on the other hand, another person who has strong positive affirmation will also do the same job. He or she will apply self inner healing to recover or be prevented at the first place.
A strong positive affirmation that one seldom falls sick is also due to one’s commanding of his body cells not to fall sick and to be active in guarding the immune system. It works, it really works.



We learn to feel healthy, learn to feel the abundance of life and learn to command our body system to do their best. To command our body system to be at their best! To command our body cells to produce and manufacture highly resistant body cells; and repair or maintain our body systems when required.



Our inner healing power is never lacking of anything but faith and belief. It works just as one command our hands to pick up an object as generated from our thoughts. Believe 100% that we can do the job on preventive measures. A strong and forceful personality who commands law and order in our body system is a requisite towards achieving total health and happiness. A strong determination to have a healthy body with a sound mind is desired to complete the job. So, why not give it a try? Start from yourself, commanding and willing our body cells and parts to stay healthy and do all the repair and maintenance, as should be installed to work every seconds and minutes. Never be suspicious or doubt our body’s capabilities and abilities in self inner healing that all of us possess….discover the natural healing process……….



For any sick people who self-affirm speedy recovery, the patient will soon be up in no time. Comparatively to a patient who lament and self-affirm a slow recovery will prolong his or her illness period. Be smart to choose, to think and to command the right messages….the right steps, for a healthier and happier you.



Learn about the law of attraction. All things happen as we wishes it, believe it or not, it is the truth. It has been here long ago, now or the days to come, in the future. It has always been there, as per one wishes. Wish your wishes come true, you will it to happen, with 100% sincerity and faith. You will get what you have always wish for, yes, believe me....

Make another's smile your need.....

smile? how long have you not smiled?


Make another's smile your need,
make another's success your inspiration,
make another's prayer your service,
make another's wound your pain -
be that healing touch that melts the disease of hatred.


It is only hatred and malice that invokes the syringe of jealousy within.
Until one will pamper the "I" and ignore the true self -
until one finds within him the need only to receive,
with no urge to give -
until one refuses to behave in a human manner -
until one perceives himself to be the master that controls another -
until then, O child,
one will face the torments of bitterness, sourness,
and the spiciness of his fiery passions.



Sweetness will come, My love, - I promise!
It will come, once you are able to swallow all bitterness,
withstand all sourness, overcome all burning heat!
Find the strength to digest the pride,
dissolve the mind, and all that will remain,
will be the sweet, pure energy of God!



God is Love, Love is God

Emotional and spiritual foods...[part 3]

digest....and understand..... and learn from it.... and get peace at heart...


Jealousy, My child,
is only an expression that depicts one's own dissatisfaction with himself.
One would want to grab another's joy,
only when he finds no joy within him.
However much time one may visit another's palace of comforts,
he, My dears, will only need to return to the peace of his own home,
for there is where he belongs and there is where lies his security and love.



The one whose mind dwells in another's home,
has already destroyed his very own.
The one that desires to wear the shoes of another,
will, himself,
suffer the discomfort of its size
and will handicap his walk
by imprisoning his feet in the untrue sole (soul).


from a divine source

Emotional and spiritual foods...[part 2]

Get rid of negative emotions.... that is jealousy.... read and digest...


The barrier of jealousy inhibits one to live the life of moderation.
This race of competitiveness pushes all love behind,
dismisses all gratitude,
tears up all sympathy,
secreting within an acid that burns any response from the heart,
allowing the mind to whip upon you its bruises of pride.


As the wounds of jealousy get more infected,
one begins to react to its pain by depicting more aggresiveness and less compassion.
This fire has consumed the hours of rest,
it has pinched from one his sense of satisfaction,
it has given one only the disease of restless thoughts and has taken away the identity of humanness,
leaving one to be the animal that stands on its two feet of desperate desire and constant unfulfillment.


A need will only be fulfilled,
My dears, but the "want" of another's "need"
will never satiate or appease the eye that burns in worldly wakefulness.
Know, My dears, that when one is thirsty, water is his only need -
any other cold drink will only salute the fancy of his taste buds,
quenching little or no thirst.


from a divine source

Emotional and spiritual foods....yummy yummy....

Enlightening reminders...... to awaken a person's self realization towards becoming a happier and healthier person....


Jealousy, My dears,
is that silent poison in one's food that remains tasteless at first,
letting one enjoy the flavor of the food in complete ignorance of its deceitful presence -
but once it is ingested,
one will experience the suffering of its venom and will continue to pay the price of its weakness, until one willfully excretes every bit -
pleasantly regaining the health of the diseased soul.


Jealousy is that locust that can alone swallow the promise of a healthy harvest.
The one that has opted to bring within him this misery,
has chosen vengeance over peace!
Those who have laid their eyes of envy on another's contentment and fulfillment,
will suffer the disease of excessive hunger.
Yes! Such a one wipes the traces of any happiness from himself,
for he will always seek unhappiness in another's smile.

Ever thought of going vegetarian?

going to refuse eating meats? can we? can we rid of this usual habit of eating meats? why should we? how can we be one? when to start? what should we eat then?



Here are just some reasons why people choose to be a vegetarian for personal health.

[1] No nutrients necessary for optimal human functioning cannot be obtained or found from plant foods. So there is no fear of deficiencies even when one is only eating from plant source.


[2] Plants do not contain bad cholesterol and comparatively to animal foods which comes with high fat and cholesterol.


[3] Meats are deficient in carbohydrates and other important vitamins[except B-complex] Can you find this vital vitamin C in any meats?


[4] Animal meats contain comparatively more bacteria and viruses than plants origin; of which some are quite dangerous to our body. So, beware of all those pathogenic microorganisms found in these meats.


[5] Exposure of agricultural chemicals affects animal foods more than plant foods. Because these animals, being higher on the food chain actually contains higher concentrations of pesticides, herbicides and more..


[6] Danger to livestock drugs. We know of some over 20,000 different drugs, including sterols, antibiotics, growth hormones and consumed by people when their meats are taken.


[7] Meat eating increases the risk of 'all modern diseases', including heart disease, stroke, osteoporosis, kidney stones, gallstones, gum disease, acne, obesity, cancer, colon poisoning and many others...


[8] Plant or wholesome food travels quickly through our digestive tracts and leave less mess in our intestines. But meat sources always create sticky, smelly, dirty stools and one can imagine the transit time kept inside our intestines. Death starts from dirty colons.


[9] Excess proteins, since too many people eat more proteins from animals that causes it to be in excess, it will also cause excess nitrogen in the blood that creates a host of long-term health challenges.


[10] Longevity. To be spared of all those degenerative diseases will at least prolong a person's healthy life.


The slaughter of animals for food, the bloodshed, the anguish cries of animals being led to slaughter houses and tears that flow from dying cows, well... I wonder if one really understands what these animals feel. The urge to stop these killings and cruelties is there, but when one visits the market and smell the aromas of cooked meats, everything is forgotten. But to an vegetarian, it stinks. It is time for all those who are middle-aged to consider going semi-vegetarian or a pure vegetarian for a healthier and happier You!

Chicken meat? fried? grilled? barbecued? Delicious but...

With the ever growing world-wide population, food can be a scarcity if not sufficiently produced. It is with such a factor in mind that supplies of meat and other foods are heading into super productions. Can you imagine eggs-laying hens are now manipulated to lay more than one egg a day? These hens are fed with highly fortified minerals and hormone boosters that induce the hens to lay 2 to 3 eggs a day. One day, man will invent eggs laying machines, I wonder if one will live long enough to dare to taste one..


What about the supply of chicken meats? The demand of chicken meats in our market has encouraged more farmers to go into rearing them in commercial scales that purely target for meats. These farmers couldn't afford any loss so these chicken are fed by pellets of noxious industrial feed laced with hormones and antibiotics. Growth hormones are given to fasten the growth of the chicken while antibiotics to prevent these chicken from getting ill and dying. No farmers are willing to accept any loss. Eyeing for profits is one of the main motive too.


Anyone who wants to learn the whole ugly truth about this foul business can be referred to John Robbins' books.


Just to copy some of what he said. "the ways chickens are produced for market today is even more of a horror story than pigs and cows. Up to 40,000 chickens are cooped up in steel cages in multi-storied 'poultry prisons', with two or three 'jail-birds' cramped into each cell.


Over 800 million chickens are killed in the UK for their meat every year. They are cooped up in steel cages in their prisons no bigger than an A4 sheet of paper. These poultry chicks are selectively bred and pumped full of drugs to reach 'slaughter size' in less than 41 days. Today's chickens are slaughtered when their eyes are still blue and they 'chirp'. Actually these chickens are chicks in adult bodies. Due to their obese body, most of them are crippled as their legs cannot support their body weight. Can you imagine that?"


Some fast-food restaurants require only 26 days old chicken to be fried and served to the customers. Most of us never looked into the actual origin of these foods. Spring chickens are also in demand in some restaurants. I wonder if you have had personally participated in the rearing and slaughtering of those chicken that you yourself will be brave enough to eat them.


So, it is best that one tries to 'discover the truth' of these chicken meats that nearly all housewives cook for their lunch or dinner. And feeding their family members with growth hormones and antibiotics found left in chicken meats. These meats are actually endangering our health one way or other. Housewives should be alerted about these truths. Knowing or unknowing, we ought not to go for too much meat dishes for our meals. Too much of anything is never too good.


Free-range chickens? yes, here is the only source of healthy meats. They are not only healthy but superior delicious and fresh. Free-range chickens are still found in some rural areas. They are fed with corn and left to roam in the farm in search for worms and insects and can only be eaten after 6 months. One would be lucky if one can get reliable sources from trusted friends. Free-range eggs are real nutritious protein sources too.


Because of this, some farmers also rear their own supposing free-ranged chickens for sale. Don't be cheated by those vendors that promised you of farm-raised chickens and sold to unaware customers at a most unreasonable price. Look at its beak, are they 'maimed' and its feet, old enough to grow another 'tip'? These birds though resembled free-ranged chicken are actually reared in a bigger cage than jail-birds. They are also fed with those 'drugs' to boost their immune system and grow as fast as it could. The only difference perhaps is that these breeds are local and looks more slender and tall.


Think twice, why are we taking these risks in endangering our family or loved ones with these chicken meats? If they are from unknown sources, I would advice you not to spend unnecessary money to purchase unhealthy foods. Money spent can be easily earned, but health lost cannot be that easily replaced. Just try to understand that there are many other choices out there, healthier and fresher foods, for a healthier and happier you!

What food do you buy for New Year?

New Year Food? New Year coming.... the kids are laughing and feeling so happy...to know that there are plentiful of good food and drinks to eat..... and 'ang pow'.... are they eating the correct foods? are you concerned?

I prefer to spend money on monthly buying quality food, spending averagely then to spend the whole lumpsum to buy New Year Goods and eat them up within the festival.

Many people spend a lot of money on celebrating New Years. Get me straight....... haha...I am not against people spending money on New Years. Afterall it is a festive season where all the people are eating, drinking, enjoying and partying. Don't look at me like that! It doesn't mean that I am not celebrating New Year. But celebrating it in a slightly different way.

We drink and eat. Just last few blogs I was talking about healthy drinks to buy, now I am going to touch on those foods that the Chinese or just anybody buy for their New Year. I understand that New Year should be celebrated with abundance and filling up their few refrigerators to their limits, serving plentiful of foods across the table. No one is to say that there are no foods.

What do we have for Chinese New Year? Most of us will have a whole fish, auspiciously to mean that every year we will have excess...and more to come. Just some to mention, good food to include abalone, bird's nests, lobsters, crabs, shark's fin, sea cucumber, beef tendons, ducks, pork, Chinese sausages, frozen delicacies and cured meats. Meat balls made from almost any sources like fish, crabs, cuttlefish, prawns and many others. Just name it, most of them have, good food.

What do they have to serve to their customers within the festive season? Out in the market, you will see and can buy dried red meat slices made from beef, pork or chicken and sold at high prices. Dried cuttlefish coming in different colors, yellow, red and orange. Colored, mind you..... dead cuttlefish is not of that color....forgive me for describing them in such a way.

You can also see all those sausages and cured meats that come in tins and sacks. And all types of cakes, all types of sweets, all types of 'keropok', crackers, preserved fruits, chocolates, nuts, delicacies that one can typically see from a supermarket! What do you want to buy? It is up to you...

There are also lots of precious nuts, mushrooms, beans, white and black fungus, seaweeds, groundnuts and 'kuachi', chocolates, tofu products, biscuits, canned foods, soft drinks, wine, beer and alcohol. There are abundant imported fruits and vegetables too. No wonder, our refrigerators are filled to the brim. Human beings are all so clever at celebrating and can cook up a storm. Oh yes, and buying all those sauces...and flavorings to spice up the foods.

All foods can be eaten, all drinks can be consumed, all celebrations can be celebrated, all festivals cheered. Life without food or joy is of no meaning, of no use...... but think twice, do you know how they are made? do you know when they are made? do you know what they are made from? How much do you have to pay for them?

How much food can you eat? How much food shall our family eat? How much is too much or too little? Ever thought of DIY? Self made, home made, home baked. It is another choice. No matter how one obtain these foods, remember one good advice. Eat moderately, eat sparingly... eat healthy and look out for those hidden sugars, hidden salts, hidden preservatives, additives, hidden fats, hidden colorings and hidden carcinogens found in some foods.

Preservatives... they are there...bacterias and even germs cannot survive, those minute bad microorganisms that couldn't spare any infection, any attack on living things. Who is immune to bacterial attack? Who is not infected by one? But these foods can stand for weeks, for months and some for years. Think twice, what about those foods that you cook yourself? They go bad even after a day or two.

Preservatives are aimed to extend the shelf life of the product, not to extend the life of the consumer!

Colorings? like I mentioned just now, dead cuttlefish are not red in color... soft drinks are not just plain, ask yourself, what is the color of your urine after consuming coke? Is it still black or grey? Where are all these colors? You know the answer...

Additives?.... when you cook something without any flavorings or sauces, will they taste as nice? Perhaps all of us are so used to it that one couldn't differentiate the difference between natural flavors versus artificial flavors. Natural flavors are being enhanced by too many artificial flavorings...guess what..permitted and within safe levels??? Within safe levels? When one is consuming it for just that one time, ok...it is within safe limits. But what about those who have been consuming them for months, for decades?

Hidden fats? Fried potato chips, french fries, fried chicken parts....and many others.... try to just take one piece of french fries and squeeze it. You will squeeze out oil, dripping and soaking your paper tissue immediately with fat. I wonder if all of them use clean and fresh oil to fry or dirtied and stale oil to do the job.... I fear...yes, I do fear for those who constantly eat deep fried foods...how foods are mass-produced and stored for commercial sales... For sale, for profits, for benefits, for money, whose faults? No body's faults?

Hidden sugars? Sweets...and sweetened foods...the lists of sweet drinks and food....what has sugars done to us? Know this disease, we call it diabetes? Diabetics are people suffering from the inability to absorb sugars in a normal way. I will have an article written on some of those suffering from diabetes and how dreadful their lives are. It really pain me so much to see those people suffering and yet I cannot do anything to help.

We are solely responsible for our health. We are totally responsible for our well-being, for our kids, for our family, loved ones.... Spend money wisely, spend them for the benefits of our health. When we have health, we have hope, when we have hope, we have everything. Listen to our health instinct, not our heart's desire to please our taste-buds, to feast on unhealthy foods, one day we would have to pay dearly if our body system becomes overloaded.

REmember that all of us have the choice, the choice to pick and buy what is best for our body...for the sake of oneself and loved ones. Don't let our loved ones suffer too. Think twice before buying and eating. We eat to survive, not survive to eat!

Wrong foods and drinks when consumed in excess....are fatal...

is a true story of a young man who ate and drank too much of unhealthy foods and drinks...read it...



Here is a true story about a young man who fell prey to ignorance about soft drinks and overloading with good foods. It is a sad story and I am sharing it to all the people in this world in memory of him, conveying his last messages.


His name was Cha Ngon. He was born into a not well-to-do family. He was forced to seek his living in the town as a porter, as a newspaper seller and will do most jobs for a few dollars. He used to hang around the wharf and restaurants where banquets were held. There were plentiful of food due to the Chinese Wedding Celebrations that took place almost every day or week. Almost everyone of us knew him because he was a little 'distinguished' in his look together with his ignorant expression.



He looked harmless, over weighted, clumsy but extremely 'sweet' with his greetings. He was naive and felt that he was a friend to all. Any parties or weddings or banquets where there was food, he would visit and had his full without even anyone inviting him. Since most occasions were auspicious, the hosts didn't bother to chase him out. As one know, all those wedding parties were provided with at least 10 dishes of rich, good food and coke served unlimited.



He was poor, that was why he tried to cut down his expenses on food and felt so lucky that he could eat all the good food for free in all those big or small restaurants. Since it was his style, he was no longer a stranger or something people would bother. After all, it was just a seat given to a 'simpleton' and food plenty. He ate and stuffed as much as he could, nearly and clearly cleaning the dishes leaving not even a morsel left. But sometimes starving himself.


He was reputed to be able to eat 2 to 3 man's share. It continued for years, his stomach bloated and round. He had tasted almost all delicacies and good food and drank soft drinks all the while. After some time, he was feeling unusually tired and pale. His urine was attracting too many ants and he was a little worried. There wasn't any pain anywhere, but he was not feeling too well.


Some friends told him to have a medical check up. He did and the doctor told him that his urine contained sugar. He was ignorant about health and ignored the doctor's advice thinking that it was just small matter. He continued his routine jobs and still ate in those restaurants. Until one day, he fainted. He was immediately sent to the hospital. Only then he knew that something was seriously wrong with him.


By then the doctor diagnosed his situation as in a critical stage of diabetes, high Blood pressure, high cholesterol and uric acids and stomach disorder. He started to lose weight dramatically. From a person with more than a hundred kg to a someone with just 60 kg. He was hospitalized for a wound that kept on deteriorating. He was also a someone who never bother about personal hygiene, so his wound became worst.


He couldn't work, he survived on public donation. His family was too poor to afford better medication and cure. He was left to face his own destiny! A destiny that caused his premature death. He was not spared of amputation. His left leg was amputated several times, each time, part of his leg was sewn off a little bit more. He was a little insane due to the poisoning of toxins and couldn't think straight.


I last saw him when he was seated at the entrance of the door of his wooden house. He was left with only one leg, the other nearly completely amputated. It was such a pitiful sight, a simpleton he might be, but he regretted so much for what he did. When the doctor told him the reasons why he was so seriously affected, he broke down and cried loudly. I could still remember what he said. Nearly everyone knew this.


He said; "Why didn't anyone tell me that one cannot drink coke and eat red meats everyday?" It was a plead, a complain, a regret from a lost soul, from a loser and nearly broke my heart.


I can still experience the tightening of my chest and a chill that ran through my spine to recall that phrase. Whose fault was that? Whose fault? He learnt a terrible lesson, a lesson of no return. He was pronounced dead after a few years later. He was then into his thirties. I was still in my early twenties then. By now, most people have long forgotten about him. Forgotten about his perils and sufferings as a long-term suffering diabetic patient.


Instead of rich food and coke, he swallowed handfuls of pills everyday, his meals made up different colored medicines of all shapes. He survived on coarse rice and few shreds of vegetables. Sometimes conscious and sometimes unconscious, eventually not even recognizing any of his old friends. It was a testimony never recorded, never retold nor rewritten. It was a story whom no one wanted to hear or know.


But it was clearly a solemn case of ignorance, lacking of proper health knowledge and care that lead to such a misfortune or to such a tragedy. It is a life lost, not an animal. We who have brains and health knowledge should be aware of the law of harvest. We should be aware that 'we are what we eat!' We should be aware that our health is directly proportional to what we feed our body. Just knowing is not enough, practising good health habits should be more relevant!


Don't procrastinate and comfort yourself that you will start to cut down those rich foods and soft drinks only when one reach into the forties..... Start today, start by refraining to eat too much, drink too much. Try to understand that too much is never too good. Heed those advices of the doctors of the future. The doctors of the future will not give any medicines, instead they are geared towards in the sharing or educating people on achieving total awareness of what is holistic health and happiness. and to understand one's body system, its diets and needs, moving towards prevention which is so much better than cure.


If you happen to meet such doctors of the future, try to approach them to know more about preventive measures. Whatsoever is the father of diseases, an ill diet is the mother.

How much do you know about 'soft drinks'?

We buy, we drink... sometimes never giving a thought of what it actually contains... nothing wrong, isn't it? All the others are also buying and drinking them..........



Soft drinks..how much do you know about them?


Most of the water on the earth today has been seriously polluted and dirtied by various artificial means, such as industrial and agricultural wastes, household chemicals, sewage and unseen chemicals and heavy metals. All these we are aware and most of us know how to use a filter to filter polluted waters before drinking.




What about those drinks, those unsafe drinks full of additives, colorings, preservatives, artificial sweeteners, artificially flavored and so much carbonated? What part of our body serves as a filter? Which body organ is doing the dirty job? Have you ever thought about a replacement of that specific body organ?




Our kidney, our liver are doing these fantastic jobs in filtering and detoxifying poisonous and toxemia from our blood system obtained from liquids and foods that we drink and eat everyday. Do you think that one day our liver or kidney would be overworked or overloaded and failed to do their work? By then where are you going to get a spare kidney? A spare liver? From just any animal? That is impossible! or waiting for some body's kidney or liver?




Our body organs are precious and priceless and no where can spares be bought or replaced as easily as we do to vehicles. Spare parts of cars or motors can be easily manufactured and mass-produced. Robots, machines or any engines can be repaired and replaced. So far, I have yet to read or discover any factory or industry that can make or manufacture human body parts. That would be one wonderful business, I guess... if there is, but.....




Most soft drinks are carbonated producing a fizzy taste and feeling when opened. The carbon dioxide gas is forced into the sweet liquid and pressurized. Carbon dioxide is considered a waste product of human metabolism and should be expelled and avoided. The situation worsens when the soft drink is again fortified with phosphoric acid. Our human blood must be maintained at a slightly alkaline pH of 7.3 at all times. It is we who purposely upset the natural balance of our blood. The more acid our blood level becomes, the more tendency our body cells will grow abnormally..




One serving of 350ml serving of coke, pepsi or similar soft drink delivers a sugar content equivalent to about 3 to 5 tablespoons of refined sugar straight into our bloodstream, instantly upsetting our blood's PH balance. It is so acidifying that our body immediately counteracts by extracting organic calcium from our bones and teeth and neutralizing our blood. It will slowly drain our calcium reserves in our body causing osteoporosis and weaken bones. Is that worth it?



What else? Worst of all is this hazardous refined white sugar we call 'sucrose' which will upset our blood's PH the instant one eats sugary products. The white plague... is notorious in nutrients robbing. It is also famous for upsetting the balance of our blood's PH, but how many people knows about it? Something should be done. Whose fault is it that most of us are ignorant of the dangers of soft drinks?




Stay away from soft drinks, avoid buying and stocking up cartoons of soft drinks, meant as 'good will' for our guests, but actually endangering their health. New Year is never complete without soft drinks, some told me that... but if really they know how much harm it will cause us, how much pain and suffering it will result in, nobody would like to invite trouble and buy sickness. Leave alone those soft drinks, for goodness sake.



Soft drinks are mostly sweetened with refined cane sugar or corn syrup. It contains no vitamins, minerals, fiber, protein or any essential nutrients. Studies have shown a corelation between soft drinks with obesity. It is high-caloried and linked to weight gain and type 2 diabetes. Most fizzy soft drinks may have a pH of 3 or even lower. It is an extremely acidic drink and also erode the tooth enamel leading to further decay of our teeth. Some soft drinks even contain carcinogen known as benzene, a cancer-causing agent.

Swallow your pride, my sweet..

Swallow your pride, My sweet -
leave it not on the tongue to dwell,
for only you will suffer its bitter taste.



You arose from My heart - I am Love -
My heart is even more lovely -
Then you, My child,
must be the sweetness of this lovely love.



Separate your self from every worry -
for worry simply needs you -
without you, its purpose withers -
it perishes,
My dears, in the pain of its isolation.




One is bound to confront the sting of inner pain,
once he has begun the cleansing process -
Impurity, My child, will not leave,
until it faces the chaos of a losing battle.


Let truth walk with you,
My child,wherever you go -
its footsteps will frighten
the thief that has come to steal your peace.

Chinese New Year is coming...buying drinks?

Chinese New Year is round the corner...busy choosing and buying soft drinks?

New year is just round the corner, after reading my few previous blogs, I wonder if you do have any idea to make or search for a real, healthy, nutritious and safe drink to buy. Nevertheless I know what I am doing and what I am going to buy, those drinks and foods for this festive season..

I am always worried for those who thought that New Year is a time for total celebration and eat and drink as much as one can. And sad to say that one might realize that after this auspicious festive season that starts from New Year Eve to the 15th of the lunar month, many clinics are filled with sick and suffering children waiting to be treated. These children have eaten and drank too much! Most of them are coughing terribly, with running nose and sore throats or having fever or cold.

Who am I to be so concerned? Who am I to be meddling into private affairs? I am who I am.... but I can definitely convey just this message... The children need not to be sick after New Year. A year older, should be a year wiser. A year older should be a year healthier, a year older should be a year happier. Or to many, a year older should be a year wealthier! But even if you are wealthier but not healthier, it is of no use...... Not until one lost it, only then one will treasure it, agree?

Never mind what you think, just read on, try to understand a little bit on my concept of drinking plain water or making it tastier. You can do it if you wills it. You can if you wants it. Nothing is too difficult for anyone who wants to achieve all 4 dimensions of health. To earn all the 4 levels of health, yes, to attain them for total health and happiness. To be a healthier and a happier you! my slogan... and it all begins with walking on the proper paths of health.

This is the only race for all of us to be winners! The health race, though it might be full of challenges, full of pit holes, full of tasks, all of you have to be WINNERS! WE CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE! yes, we definitely cannot afford to lose...and end up hospitalized and dependent on pills and medications.

What do you think I will make to replace soft drinks? There are many choices that I can do. I used to serve a special drink that I brew for special guests and friends. Here is the special recipe.

some white fungus[soaked and cleansed properly]

some red dates

some honey dates

ginseng roots

wolfberries

longan meats

licorice roots

ginko nuts

Have it brewed or cooked in a slow cooker, cooking enough for those expected guests. Easily diluted and served on small bowls. The guests will be so delighted to see and taste something different and nutritious. It can be sweetened with rock sugars to one's heart desire. Can be served cold or warm. There is another easy way of serving ginseng drink. This is my second choice. Have some ginseng blended into powder forms and stored in air-tight containers. Just add some powder into hot water and leave it for a minute before serving. This would be so much better than that of milo or other hot drinks. It is a health drink, a tonic whereby all my guests will be nodding their heads in agreement that they can try too at home.

I can also serve Amway's Nutrilite drinks with lemon, orange or cherry flavor. All of them are natural and without preservatives, colorings and additives, all these I am confident and sure of its nutritional values and naturalness. My 5 children are being brought up with all these drinks ever since they were born. No trace of colors found in their tongues or mouth after drinking them. Acelera cherry is bright pinkish-red, but no trace of colors or aftertaste can be found. It is not ordinary sugars, but fructose fortified. Nutrilite brands are super brands that can be trusted and reputed for its natural goodness. It also has a reputed history of over 70 years. Log in to Nutrilite if one is interested to know more.

The above are natural drinks that I have been serving and drinking all the time. Because of this opportunity in my blog, I am sharing to the whole world about natural goodness and how to choose healthy drinks. It is up to all to accept or not. But I do feel deeply that it is our responsibilities as parents to be wholly responsible for our children's health. Because all of us drink everyday. Prevention is better than cure. Be smart to choose, be smart to buy, be smart to prepare... those drinks that will pollute or aid and affect 70% of our liquids in our body...will make a great difference.

Ask yourself, how much is left in your health bank? Can you afford to destroy? Can you afford to be sick? Can one afford to lose? There are too much 'minus', too much 'deficits' that you are taking from your health bank.... and one day, it will go bankrupt, that is the time one will be resting in the hospital, either to be operated or hospitalized or given routine nasty meals of drugs, pills and medicines. Worse still, if the sickness is irreversible. Our health line will go for an acute drop. Don't wait until that time...... it is never advisable. We have to build up and invest in our health bank, we have to put in more efforts to earn proper health. Prevention is so much more smart, so much required. And be a winner in this health game, a race that all should be winners! ALL!

Reasons to be happy...

Reasons to be happy.

When I had many deficits,

In fact, I wasn't too happy....

But thought twice, I should be happy...

If not, I won't have any time left to be happy....

So, I decided to keep calm and remain happy...

Happiness is so scarce, cherish it, be happy...

That was one good reason for me to be happy.....

When I had nothing,

In fact, I wasn't happy too...

But thought twice, Nothing cannot make me unhappy...

Since I have Nothing to be unhappy...

So, I decided to remain not unhappy....

because he who had everything was still unhappy...

Why should I who had nothing be unhappy?

One day....

When I have something...

In fact, I can be happy...

But think twice, why shouldn't I be happy?

Happiness doubles, so there is no reason to be not happy...

Something is better than nothing, so rejoice and be happy...

But some don't even have anything, yet they are happy...

And they are so much at peace of mind and heart and happy...

One day...

When I have everything...

I suppose I can be very happy...

But think twice, to have everything is nothing to be proud and happy...

When I had nothing, I wasn't unhappy...

When I have something, I wasn't unhappy...

Only when everybody has something, we be happy...

When only everybody has everything, we will be so happy...

Happiness is self-made..

Happiness is self-acquired...

Happiness is love in the making...

Happiness doubles through sharing...

So, it depends on how one looks at happiness...

So, it depends on how one attains happiness...

Only then one will experience true happiness...

How to improve the taste of plain water [part 2]

Nutritious bean extracted milk

Beans and nuts can have their juices extracted like making soya bean milk. These beans can be blended, cooked to extract its milk and discarding its pulp. The pulp can be used for animal feeds. These milk from the beans are all full of nutrition and can perfectly replace just any soft drinks.. Bean extracted milk is an excellent source of protein, occurring naturally and easily available and reasonably cheap. Go for plant protein, a protein that don't come with cholesterols or fats.

Natural goodness

Honey

is the best source of natural goodness and considered as a complete food with almost all nutrients. Honey has high nutritious and therapeutic benefits such as removing patheogenic heat, as well as moistening, analgesic and detoxifying effects. Its therapeutic benefits depends on the purity of honey. Not all honey contains the same nutritional values. [maybe I should have one article written just on the wonders of HONEY, oh, yes, I guess I will]

Just dilute the above natural goodness with plain, clear, clean water to get a nice nutritious drink..... Don't use hot boiling water to make the drink. It might destroy some of the delicate nutrients.

Brewed soups

Brewed soups or tonics

can also be recommended for those who wants to go an extra mile. It can contains bird's nests, high quality Chinese herbs, rare delicacies, shittake mushrooms, white or red ginseng and taken in small quantities. The brewed soups depends on what they are aimed at. This is another great topic that ancient Chinese physicians claim to be able to prolong one's longevity. Not as an everyday drink, but as a tonic that can boost one's immune system, boost one's sexuality, boost one's vitality, general health and ability to counteract stress and fatigue.

It is well known and have been in practise several thousand years ago, perhaps only restricted to emperors and empresses, nobles and those in the palace. It is indeed well-known as eastern wisdom in herbs and tonics. It is delicately brewed with extreme care and time to produce a tonic so rich and delicious that only the rich can afford them.

For any soups, juices and tonics made, plain, pure and clean water is the liquid base. One can just drink water by leaving it as it is, or if one is diligent enough, brew up something of your taste or a tonic perhaps. Or water added as juicing. What a blessing all of us have....the abundance of plain water....the abundance of water all around us....the abundance of air.... .be grateful, yes, be grateful to Mother Nature and Mother Earth. We will have more than enough if we maintain the ecology, the balance of yin and yang.... for a healthier and happier winner that all of us should be!

How to improve the taste of plain water [part 1]

How to improve the taste of plain water? To make it tastier and more beneficial to our body, yet safe...?

Normal, plain, clear and clean waters are actually what we need everyday. This is a must if one really wants to remain 'cool' and healthy. But experts from food and drink industries have invented plentiful, varied soft drinks and mass-produced them and sold them everywhere. Some are most irresistible drinks and advertised in such a way that most of us would be directly or indirectly influenced. .

But I just wonder if these pioneers or inventors of these drinks do promote his loved ones and family members to drink them daily. Sorry if I have touched on and venture into sensitive issues. For the sake of soft drinks industry, for the sake of business and profits, for the sake of their jobs, nothing can be expected that need to be explained or justified. Commercial rights are protected. But as end consumers, one should be aware of what we eat and drink will not affect our health. We won't want to buy troubles or illness. So, we have to be careful in the selection of proper foods. Sickness enters through our mouth. That is why one always say digging graves using our teeth......

Some nutritious herbal drinks can be made easily oneself. I guess this will be another one long blog, so I need to break them up into several parts. We have decided not to participate with the buying and stocking up of soft drinks, so we can make our plain water tastier by adding good 'materials' And we can make even more nutritious, delicious and healthy drinks ever..... yummy yummy....

Let me classify them into 5 big categories,

[a] fruit and vegetable drinks,

[b] nutritious drinks from beans

[c] herbal drinks [divided into several grades again]

[d] natural goodness [e.g honey...just dilute it]

[e] brewing them as soups, tonics, concentrates, essence all from natural sources without additives, colorings...and have to consume fresh...

Yin and Yang theories are applicable and to ensure proper health, one should be in harmony with nature's law. It is more towards balancing of which too many people have knowingly self destroyed or disturbed nature's balances...and indirectly fallen prey to our own ignorance. Have no fear.... ignorance can be solved by learning.... start from getting interested and the rest will just come so naturally.....

Talking about fruits and vegetables, juicing, blending and mixing up these natural wonders of food, I am just exhilarate and extremely keen in sharing them. This is the food and drinks therapies that have earned a reputation for me for more than a decade. I have accumulated valuable experiences in this field of natural cures by just using ordinary fruits and vegetables together with eastern wisdom plus western technology. I call it food therapy.

Herbal drinks

It can be food herbs, it can be curing herbs, it can be maintaining herbs, it can be a tonic, it can be refreshing and I call herbs as natural wonders of plants. It can perform miracles and works well for most people. Best of all, much safer than drugs because of its plants origin. Of course, to be taken as prescribed by experts. Herbal drinks can be done in many different ways. An easy and common way is to do it like making tea. Pouring hot water over these herbs and wait for the flavor to be diffused into the water. But there is another way that I used to recommend...using a thermos flask to do the job.

It means that one can clean the materials and soak them inside the thermos flask and be kept overnight. The drinks one made from the thermos flask will be still warm and the ingredients cooked. And the herbal drink just so wonderfully done with little effort. If it is too concentrated, it can easily be diluted with more water.

There are lots of ingredients that can be used. Since there are over thousands of these wonderful, natural, beneficial, useful plants, I cannot possibly share everything. Individual needs are specific for maximum results, so it is always after my own survey before any prescriptions are given.

In Chinese ways of classifying foods, we can classify them into sweet, sour, salty, pungent, bitter properties. Well, it is as if going into Chinese medicines, well, that is just for your information. I should and shall convey in a more generalized way. Some Chinese herbs are from very rare sources and are extremely expensive. Some are commonly found and easily prepared.

Here are some wonderful herbs, there are too many to learn and remember, all are full of natural goodness and FRESH and DELICIOUS..... and works as TONICS and ENERGY BOOSTERS. These are just some of them...

- all types of ginseng

- all types of dates

- all types of chamomiles/edible flowers

- all types of tea, esp green tea

- all types of roasted beans and nuts

- wolfberries, longans, shiitake

- licorice, pandan, edible roots

- white fungus, dong kui

- western herbs e.g. basil..

- peppermint etc....etc...

All these can be easily prepared, using hot waters or brewed in china pots or thermos flasks. Most of them can be easily found in Chinese Medicine Shops or found in your garden. When one really master the art of brewing or making teas from varied herbs or even the combination of some, I can tell you that your family will be so fortunate to have tasted them. They are far more beneficial than those soft drinks or milo or shakes...

Fruits and vegetable juices

Making fruit and vegetable juices too need skill and proper choice.

It can range from passion fruits, pineapples,, peaches, pears, papayas, plum to water chestnuts, water melons and guava and grapes....the list goes on.... Celery, parsley, tomatoes, cucumbers, bitter gourds, carrots, lettuce, capsicum, red beets and so much more... An appropriate combination is best with 5 servings of vegetables and 3 servings of fruits, either juicing or just blending up the whole thing and eating it with its pulp

Who says that we cannot enjoy home-made drinks? These are all wonderful sources of minerals and vitamins, so nutritious and natural. But remember not to add any white sugar. Just add honey if there is a need, but most of the time, just drink it as it is. Caution..DRINK THEM FRESH... immediately after making. These natural goodness are extremely easy oxidized and destroyed by the passage of time. So, don't think of commercializing fresh juices or drinks that are organically fresh.... We want it fresh and nutritious, right?

to be continued....

Healthy drinks....how to choose?

Liquids make up at least 2/3 of our body fluids. It is of great importance and care that one needs to be replenished with quality waters safe for consumption. We need at least 8 glasses of clean and clear plain water everyday or more for those heavy sweaters. Never underestimate what plain water can do for us. Below are some tips on how to choose a safe drink....... all of us know it, just a reminder for all those health-conscious people.....

Tips on how to choose healthy drinks

[1] should be without artificial colors

[2] should be without artificial sweeteners

[3] should be without preservatives

[4] should be without artificial flavoring

[5] should not be too sweet

[6] should not be carbonated

[7] should be non-alcoholic

8] should be not too cold or hot

The above are the requisites of a drink or liquid that is best for normal consumption. That is plain water! If you don't agree, tell me what sort of drinks can be more safer? After going through the above points, we come back again to plain water. Plain water is still the best choice.

Plain water should be odorless, colorless, tasteless and without any pollutants, chemicals, sand and dirt, germs and any contaminants like heavy metals or even virus... but should contain the natural minerals that Mother Earth provides.

One should choose a filter that can produce clear water absent from the above contaminants but still contains natural minerals from Mother Earth. At the same time, not boiled because we need living water to keep us more lively and healthier. One shouldn't alter the water components nor add in anything. Plain, clean and clear water is all what we need to drink everyday.

What cannot be seen using our naked eyes doesn't mean that it is not in existence. Be always careful as NOT to drink contaminated waters that will cause epidemics. Prevention is so much more important than cure.

Plain water....plain water...too plain, no taste, not nice to drink! You always hear your children or even adults complaining about plain water being too plain. There are too much choice from cafe and supermarkets, and mum, all other people are drinking them, so why not us? That was what my children sometimes ask....

Well........Mothers...dear mothers at home, what drink are you giving to your kids? Do you ever give a second thought to what the drinks that you give to your kids might contain? Can you visualize what will become of your kids if they are constantly given those drinks?

I can stand up and say very proudly that my 5 children, ever since they were born to be strictly brought up with just plain water. Plain, clean and clear water, filtered water. They never complained though curious to know why.....

I will share with you, my friends how to make our plain water more tastier, nutritious and beneficial to our health in my next blog.......OUR MOTIVE...TO BE A HEALTHIER AND HAPPIER WINNER.......... stay tune, be right back...brb..

Our brain, use it for good purposes...

Our brains...yours and mine...all of us have brains... We have to have full control of our mind not the mind to control over us...

I used to jokingly share with my form 3 students..... whenever there is just any word or speech or expression irrelevant to our morals, I will tell them that it is 'baadd influence....' and they will be laughing away, emphasizing the word longer than usual. Yes, I can always recall vividly how Melvin, son of a doctor repeated after me and reminds the class as how to differentiate what is good and bad... 'bad influence!'

It is of great importance to recognize our roles in educating or sharing with our students or friends; and at the same time learning from our mentors or teachers. We give and receive. Knowledge is such that sometimes we teach, sometimes we learn. Teach what we know, learn what we don't! Sharpen our wits, use it or lose it. The more one uses our brain, the more lively it becomes... there is nothing to do with natural aging too...believe me..

Even a toddler can have a message to convey if one opens one's eyes and heart to see and to feel. We can learn how to stay happy and overcome stress and worries by laughing and giggling away.... just so very naturally....from a toddler!

We can also play with floating ducklings that squeals at our every squeezing in a bath tub filled with water and laughing away and joking with our kids and feeling so much at ease.... who says that we can't? Why shouldn't we? Or is it restricted only for the kids?

Well, some grownups are too serious in the learning process and thought that knowledge and wisdom only comes from thick books and from those very educated with 'tall' certificates. Can certificates or pieces of paper really measure or represent one's wisdom? Or should one stand still to let our knowledge be measured?

I have some very interesting topics that talks on multiple Qs. Multiples Qs that makes up one's success as a whole, and they cannot be represented in any certificates. Look at this, IQ + EQ + CQ + DQ + AQ + TQ + MQ + HQ + SQ = TOTAL SUCCESS. It includes Intelligence, Emotion, Creativity, Development, Adversity, Teamwork, Moral & Money, Health, Success & Spiritual Quotients. I will work out an online course when the students are ready to learn... soon.

Our mind is being programmed and installed every seconds, be it consciously or unconsciously. Even when one sleep or are in resting modes, our brains still continue to work for us. Can you believe me if I were to tell you that when I throw a question to my subconscious mind and sleep throughout the night and the answer revealed the instant I wake up the next morning? Hahaha... If you wills it, it will work for you too... So, one can imagine the power of the mind when in proper use. One should never underestimate the power of our mind when working hand in hand with positive emotions, especially love. Genuine or true love will bring forth miracles and wonders....resulting for the one who believed and now gotten.

Whatever our mind can conceive and believe, we can achieve.....

I often use this phrase to encourage my friends and distributors on how to achieve one's goals by having dreams first. Dreams of what they want in life and how one can improve one's life. There are rooms for improvements enough for everybody, yes for just anybody who are willing to discover and build the room... the size of the room, depending on the size of your brain...on how one use it...

Our mind is where we keep our acquired knowledge plus inner wisdom and accumulated for our daily use. Be aware of the brain which is double-edged with its sharpness. It can cut, it can mend, it can create, it can destroy. It depends on the degree of passion that controls our brain. When our mind is at its optimum negative, it destroys....When our state of mind is at its optimum positive, it creates... I also have a big diagram[I wonder how I can also put it into my blog, drawn with a double-edged sword that portrays the degrees of passion, how positives create and how negatives destroy]

Mind your words... mind your deeds... it comes from your mind. What one thinks will be revealed in words, expressions, body language or actions. There are at least 6o thousands thoughts passing through our brain for a normal intellect per day, thoughts once were just imaginations are things today. For great scientists and philosophers, great inventors and sages, their brains perhaps are being utilized more than a common man. But what surprises all of us is that these people are also just using a small fraction of their minds. The hidden floating ice-berg not in view cannot actually be measured or recorded in terms of capabilities and abilities. .

But think twice, what is the use of mastering all knowledge in this world but failed to listen to our hearts? And failed as a person without character or morale? And failed in what he or she desired or wanted in life? Our thoughts are plenty, our imaginations wild, but without a concentration of proper one-pointedness, no one can capture real success or creativity for total health and happiness. Beauty is in the doing of the correct things. Don't disregard inner conscience and venture into inhumane practises. Creation is useless and harmful when not doing things correct. Creations without morals are better never born or imagined..

Beware of the evil workshops in our mind. We are whom we think we are. Getting things done in a mean, unkind and selfish ways, doing things against the law of Life and Love, against Mother Nature, obtaining things against other's wishes, enforcing a law that forces one to accept 'black' as 'white', untruth as truth, building happiness on other's sufferings should not be allowed at the first place. That is the brain! Delete before it is too late! Crush them when it is still budding!

HOW? how to stay positive?

Program your brain with positives. Program your brain with useful, meaningful attributes to live as a happy human being should. We are no beasts nor animals. Reinstall with good ideas, seek happiness, seek confidence, seek faith, seek good people, keep in good company and refrain from getting infected with negatives. Ask, believe and receive...One can so easily tap these positive energies from everywhere..yes, from anywhere.....if.only when you choose to attain positives. Understand the law of harvest, you plant, you reap, you harvest. Plant, grow and 'nurse' a tree that bears the fruits of good virtues.

Love is expanding, love is enjoying, love is satisfying, love is comforting, love is fruitful, love is the noblest best positive emotion that will create even more love..... Love will be multiplied... Love will be the answer to all doubts, sorrows and challenges. Believe me..... Our cosmos, our universe...is in perfect harmony and works well because of this Divine Love, This is the Law of Attraction together with Law of life and the Law of Love. We are the embodiments of love, remember that we have this divine spark inside us, love...

M

- our mind stores Conscious and Subconscious thoughts

I

- inner beauty, intuition, the secret, happiness and hope can be revealed from what we think and thought

N

- never ever underestimate the capacity of our mind how much it can store and do... [if there is a will, there is a way!]

D

- our brain cells never die if you feed it with the appropriate fuel

We are whom we believe we are.....the choice is ours..... Live out a healthier and happier person, as one deserves....by merely accepting the fact that you are the BEST!

What is doubt?

What is doubt?
What is doubt?
What is doubt?
Tell me what is doubt?
Yes, what is doubt?

When you don't have absolute faith in the result, then doubt arises. An example: Now it is daylight and the objects in the room are seen very clearly and there is no doubt in regard to what you see. At night when it is fully dark and you have to grope around and do not see any of the objects, there is no doubt about the situation. But at dusk, when it is half light and half dark, doubt can arise and you may see a rope and imagine it to be a snake and have fear.

Light is not full and vision is not clear. Full light is wisdom, and full dark is ignorance. Doubt arises when there is half dark and half light.

Ignorance and wisdom, when half and half, there is doubt. So one will experience doubt when ignorance and wisdom is mixed. You are not fully experienced. When you have proper experience and knowledge, doubt will disappear! Because you are not experienced, you are having this doubt.

We are doubting because we do not know the truth. Once one experiences truth, doubt will disappear. Truth is one and for all time, truth is truth. Whatever changes is not truth, we call that untruth. Once you were small, and you grew up. When you were small and now you are bigger is also no difference. Understand that it is the same you! All has merged into your present body. You are still You!

Dark and light are not different; they are one only. When the light comes, darkness disappear.....A small example; last night you ate an orange, in the morning it becomes a stool. It was fruit yesterday, but the bad, and the good are the same, only one, but in another form. The stool was once an orange!

Full concentration and one-pointedness should be applied to gain the experiences to achieve and understand truth. Whatever one don't love deeply or lack of passion, then concentration is not full.

When driving a car through a narrow or dangerous lane, one will need to concentrate on driving because one treasures and loves life, so as to avoid accidents. Because you have this love for the body, you concentrate on its safety. When you have deep love for God, then concentration on HIm will come automatically. Life is Truth, Truth is God. The unchangeable is Truth.

"Truth will always be TRUTH..... regardless of lack of understanding, disbelief or ignorance..." W. Clement Stone

The truth is that we accept and believe that God is our heavenly father. God is Love, Love is God. When one think that God is the nearest and dearest to you, you will surrender completely to Him. When one fully surrenders oneself completely to God and becomes God's child, you don't need to tell God about what you need or want. He will give you more than you have asked for. Just like a mother to her child's needs and wants.

Have faith that God does everything for man's good. He never does anything to harm man or give him sorrow. But this faith you must have....to believe and accept that God is the Creator of all... Remember...all divine words comes from divine source...

Part-time devotion for full-time payment?

It is not that our Lord has no desire to remove the suffering, but how is it possible for God to accept part-time devotion and give full-time payment?

Spiritual level...

"Faith must be such that it should withstand the ridicule of the ignorant, cavilling by the worldly and the laughter of the low-minded.."

"It needs absolute faith and real effort to believe and accept the Formless God that one couldn't see or touch, but it doesn't mean that God isn't existing...."

People say; 'Seeing is believing! I will believe in God only if I see Him' But are all things seen, heard, touched or tasted, as real as they seem? Is it the eye that sees? Your eye may be seeing, yet if your mind is elsewhere, you will not observe anything at all. You see things only through the illumination of the Self. You love, because the Self is Love. You know, because the Self is knowledge itself.

Mind health.......

"A sound mind ensures a sound body and a sound body ensures a sound mind. The 2 are interdependent. Similarly, health is essential for happiness and happiness or a capacity to be happy whatever may happen, is essential for physical health too."

It is man's mind that is really responsible for his illness or health. He himself is the cause or motivator of either. So when it comes to healing or curing, the necessary faith has to be created within his mind for the purpose. All what God does is to invest him with the confidence, will and power to cure himself. It is God's abounding love reciprocated by the intensity of the devotee's faith in Him that produce the desired result.

Emotion health.......

Anger is also a major cause of ill-health, besides being dangerous for other reasons. It brings a long trail of camp followers, each of whom adds its share to the final ruin.

Anger is one's own enemy,

Peace is the protection shield

Compassion is the true relation...

Happiness is verily the heaven...

Misery is the hell...

Do not worry about ups and downs, loss or gain, joy or grief. You are the maker of those ups and downs and if you but care, it can all be one smooth level.

Body health...... just do it...

Plant divine wisdom in your heart, water the sapling with love, manure it with faith and courage, and keep off the pests with the insecticides of good practises and companions, and at the same time sing praises! Be grateful that we are humans and not animals, be grateful that we can think and act, not like the beasts, remember we are blessed in all ways...

Count our blessings, count even those blessings in disguise.... yes, those blessings in disguise that comes in the form of sickness, sufferings, financial difficulties, misfortunes, accidents, insults or any adversities.... you cannot accept these facts, but one day...yes, one day you will understand what I am saying.........

Be comforted....

For every act of God's grace known to you, there are a thousand others you do not know.

Bad is a distorted aspect of good

Why is evil bad or good good?

Here is this banana. The skin is useless to us, so it is regarded as bad, but if there were no skin, the inside would not be protected. Do not regard anything as bad. If a person has done evil to you and you take it as evil or retaliate, then you also have become bad. But, by remaining good and not regarding others as evil, you gain the right to reform them.

Why the need to stand firm and the need to reform them? All humans should treat each other as brothers and sisters. If you treat them so, will you not lend a hand to help? They are your brothers and sisters! They know not what they are doing, they know not that what they did were so disastrous and hurting everyone concerned. They didn't realize that they are also hurting themselves.

If you have the divine spark in your heart, you will know what to do with these people. Follow the inner conscience where God dwells. Listen to gain inner wisdom that all are same.

God is real, bad unreal...........

'No person is wholly bad, for God is in every person's heart!'

Bad is a distorted aspect of good

Bad actions should be met with good deeds and good viewpoint, and the evil will be changed. The difference between good and bad is a matter of time. Food when eaten is good, in time, that food undergoes a change, is excreted and is called bad.

Whereas, truth remains the same and does not change with the passage of time. Therefore, the time sequence is just an imagination. Bad is a distorted aspect of good!"

Why does God allows bad?

Let's look at our 5 senses;

when we look at the negative sides...

the eyes draw you away into the realms of fleshly charm and sensual beauty,

the ears crave for salacious songs and talks,

the tongue overloads your digestive system,

the nose leads you into jungles of laboratories in search of artificial fragrances and scents,

the sense of touch seeks softness in silk and velvet and flounders man in mire.

But when one can master the senses and direct them in a more beneficient channels,

the eyes seeing God's footprints in stars and rose petals,

the ears hearing God's voice in the throats of birds and peals of thunder,

the tongue tasting God's sweetness in all that appeals to it,

the nose discovering fragrance in everything that results in the glory of God,

the sense of touch to clasp the hand of the forlorn and the distressed as the beloved children of God,

So, the same eyes, the same ears, the same tongue, nose or hands can do and be bad or good. The question now is why does God allows bad or evil to happen?

Well, God loves us so much that He let us have the choice to choose what you want to do with your eyes, your ears and everything. Before Christ's time, God's Laws were strict and death was the punishment for all evil or wrong deeds. After the birth of Christ, it is the era of forgiving and reforming. All of us are given the chance to reform.

By understanding the above, you have to nurse the 3 qualities, love, compassion and comradeship. To cultivate this attitude, you have to make your heart into a nursery of these virtues, only then it becomes a garden of paradise, where the weeds of anger, envy and greed do not strike root.

TAKE NOTE THAT:

All divine messages come from Divine Sources. Who am I to teach these? No, I am just a pencil to do the job, because ordinary man cannot write spiritual knowledge. Spiritual health is not any health topics that can be written by doctors, scientists or any wise man. It comes from within, from an understanding or enlightenment that comes from God himself.

It is sharing, remember? Happiness is in the sharing of all good, meaningful things. From spiritual wisdom, one can write better about body, mind and emotion health. I must admit that the highest health is that of spiritual health, if one attains spiritual health, all other dimensions of health is of no problem. Yes, of no problem. There is this peace and bliss that radiates and commands our body cells and system, our mind and emotion to be at ease and at peace with each other. To be at ease is the answer to many problems and sufferings. Most of these diseases are caused by dis-ease, so when one is at ease with Mother Nature, with human races and realizing that he himself is a spark of the Divine, he will be so much healthier and happier in all 4 levels of health. It is not a matter to be taken lightly..... true....

Do write to me if there are certain things needed to clarify or anything that one needs to know more about the 4 dimensions of health..........

Miracle 3 .... [part 4]

Miracle 3... the answer to one's prayer...

Something happened to Mary. Mary became a target of 'criticism', she was worried. She was worried because of a big misunderstanding of which she herself have caused due to her naive-ness. A lot of people like to feast on negatives, joining the crowd to exaggerate and adding or subtracting. from the rumours. What was actually a harmless suggestion became distorted and created an unbelievable impact on too many people. She told me about what actual1y happened. She was alarmed to have created such an unnecessary, meaningless misunderstanding that was a pain to her.

1 Peter 6: 8-9

'Love one another as brothers and be kind and humble with one another. Do not pay back evil with evil, or cursing with cursing; instead, pay back with a blessing, because a blessing is what God promised to give you when He called you.'

Ephesians 4:29-32

'Do not use harmful words, but only helpful words, the kind that build up and provide what is needed, so that what you say will do good to those who hear you...... Get rid of all bitterness, passion and anger. No more shouting or insults, no more hateful feelings of any sort. Instead, be kind and tender-hearted to one another and forgive one another. As God has forgiven you through Christ.'

Mark 11:2:6

'And when you stand and pray, forgive anything you may have against anyone, so that your father in heaven will forgive the wrongs you have done'

She just rented a place with her partner and renovating it to be a center for future activities of their global business. She herself have been giving tuition in her home for about 6 years. Since her business is growing, she decided to terminate her tuition classes. What was left were a few students. Thinking not to clash with the programs and her office she rented, she decided to go upstairs to find out if there is a room available for rent. She met the principal, a nice man who talked with patience. She suggested that if there were to be a room left unused, she could rent it for her class from 6 till 8pm. At the same time, she can watch over her 5 kids, 4 studying in secondary and one still in primary. Of course, after talking to the principal, he told her that there was no class available.

She was worried for the place, but happy for him that he has good business. She told him that these students have been with her for long and wanted to follow her. Their parents way of educating is just sending them to where the teacher is, and leave them for the teacher to discipline them. That explains the long hours Mary spent with them. She emphasized that since they shared the same staircase, they can still be friends. She thanked the principal and left the office. The tuition school was at the 2nd floor while hers was at the 1st floor.

So, Mary decided to talk to her partner. She offered $200 for the use of the place and talked to him that she had no other better place to go. Making sure that it won't clash with their programs and other activities as arranged. After considering for a while, he agreed. So Mary put it at half past four to half past six and rearranged it to be for 4 days per week!. But there was a pair of brothers who would come as early as two until six. Mary told her partner that the place can be more lively with just some children and her kids too. That was the situation.

A few days passed, something was wrong, Mary's partner started to receive several calls regarding conflicting... And the landowner even personally visited the office. But Mary and her partner started their meetings as planned and arranged for all the activities. They even had a Wok Party on Sunday evening where more than 60 of their distributors came. The program sheet was distributed and the place promoted. Programs were announced and things were going on smoothly.

Mary didn't think much of it, since then, she had a place to keep her students temporarily. But things weren't as simple as she thought. A misunderstanding was being brewed up and getting more distorted. Eventually, the landowner felt that they couldn't sign the proposed agreement. It was only after a week, that was a Monday that they suddenly realized the urgency of the matter. Things seemed out of control and there was something about 'beating up' Mary if they met. Something really was wrongly conveyed. A misunderstanding that was such a small matter but meant so much to others was heated up. Mary talked to her partner, her partner even offered his house for the tuition, Mary was so touched and immediately told the students to move to her home. saying that it was her responsibility to do so.

She was pained, she felt uneasy, she felt the unfairness, she felt the need to settle the dispute, which was all caused by some misunderstanding. She was confused, as usual, she called upon God for advice. And you know what she got?

Below is the spiritual comfort and advice that she would like to share. It is actually an answer to her prayers. She always talk to another spiritual friend who will give her faith and strength on spiritual needs. She received this message from her friend far away and after reading for a few lines, she knew that it was specially for Mary. She herself also experienced the 'creeping feeling' of the presence of God and knew that all things are pre-destined. It was such a precise timing when Mary needed such comfort and out of the blue, someone sent this message for her, from a someone Mary herself didn't even know. Well, I do agree that it is the work of the Divine.

'When one is sunken in the confusion of being able to make the right choice, and that one, with faith, humbleness, and loving surrender knocks on My door for the answer, know that for such a devout soul, I, Myself, will open the door to his appropriate path and will stand before him in the most obvious manner as his only response. For the one that has accepted Me as the only truth, yet struggles to swim against the tidal currents of the worldly delusions, for such a one, I will become the strength of his arms that will paddle his way across the rough ocean of life and will bring him to the safety of My shore. The one that stands for justice and divine principles, yet fears the outcome of its short term pain and agitation, for that brave one, I will become his shadow that will follow him in the nights of failures and the brilliant days of success. The one that becomes the victim of assault for being the voice that only chants the truth, that one, O child, I will embrace, I will protect and I will respect. Know, My dears, that the one who gives up all relations and friends and makes Me his only own - the one that battles each attachment, only to win My love - the one that faces all indignities, only to be able to face Me with purity - the one that displeases himself, only to please Me - the one that commits his every moment to My service, that one, only lives in the human body, My dears, but is actually, in all true reality, only Me!

Know that behind every sacrifice lies My breath - behind every truth, lies My strength - behind every patience, lies My forgiveness - behind every acceptance, lies My will, and behind every virtue, lies My fragrance. The one that performs his duty and plays his role to the fullest of his ability without the expectations of the rewards of honor, fame, recognition and gratitude, such a one, has found the truest and infinite glory - Mine!! Worldly honor, My dears, will make you the hero, today and will make you the villain, tomorrow. Once you are the hero in My eyes, know that no blame of imperfection can ever touch you. Once you have accepted each thought, each word, and each act as Mine, no pride can ever smear you. Once you have seen and recognized Me, no veil of untruth can ever cover you. Once you have bonded in the sweetness of our love, no temptation can ever draw you. Once you have made Me the strength and goal of your mind, no doubt nor fear can ever intimidate you.

Inspire yourselves by surrounding and submerging each moment with the peace of God. Influence and direct each part of you towards My light. Each attempt will only addict you, even more, to be in My company, alone. Every form of Me that rejects you, will only make you more determined to purify yourselves, a little more. Do not fear the several falls that lie ahead, for each fall will only allow you to be more balance and more cautious. Perfection dwells in the one that is not afraid of making several attempts, for perfections comes only, My dears, with practice. Spiritual perfection will only come, when one has made a full commitment of his own free will, without falling under any external pressures to please or compete. Spiritual perfection will only come, when one stops to bind himself to limitations and recognizes his true source of infinite strength. Stop waiting, My dears, for God to come to you. He has come as you! Believe it! Practice it! Reveal it! & Attain it!'

Mary told me that she wasn't provoked even a little bit, she told me that she has forgiven these people and with God in her heart, there is nothing to worry. Like those scriptures shared above, all human race are brothers and sisters to each other. She kept reminding her partner to do things positive and be calm and cool. She was glad that her partner did things right and proper and was also not at the least provoked. Hopefully, things would turn out fine. Let God's will be done. Love will melt even the hardest or most stubborn heart.
