One has to acquire humility, activate discipline and a good character....

















"Together with the knowledge of the natural sciences, one has to acquire humility, activate discipline and a good character."

Truth is realized that the spirit will experience true peace and contentment...






















“Of what avail is it to be a scholar or clever intellectual, if one does not practice even a fraction of what one knows? Not all the luxuries and pleasures of the world will give man contentment and peace. Only when the Truth is realized that the Spirit will experience true peace and contentment.”

Post 812... The foundations of good health...[part 2]

Health awareness + Health goals + Health knowledge + Health investment + Persistence in action = Good Physical Health

[3] Health knowledge
I used to share this..."If you know what to do or can solve all health problems, it is because you know how. This 'know how' is appropriate knowledge applied. Thus likewise, to obtain health, we should at least must acquire health knowledge.

A doctor in the making needs at least 5 to 6 years. Learning is inevitable. Thus when one talk about good health, one should be at the very least know about preventive measures. One should at least know the reasons why one will get sick and how to prevent illness!

We have our immune system to heed, our repair system, our detoxifying system, our anti-aging system, our anti-stress and anti-cancer capabilities. What about our respiratory system, our digestive system, our immune system, our lymphatic system, our reproductive system and nervous system and all the lots...

One should learn about food pyramids, the importance of balanced diets and nutritional values of different types of food. It too include the awareness of the danger of wrong eating and over eating. And are we cooking healthy, eating healthy and seldom or take no rubbish foods!

The skill comes along with what to eat and not to eat, when to eat, how to eat, how much to eat! And the art of balancing what we eat. What about those habits or food that cause us to fall sick? How will rubbish foods or destructive foods affect all of us?

And more important of all, health should be achieved in all 4 dimensions of health, physical body, mind, emotion and spirit!

Once again, it is the know how, the preventive measures that all of us should acquire! Don't wait till it is too late.

[4] Health investments in the form of time and money!
All of us want health. We need to buy health, we need to invest time! Air, water, food and drinks... are they safe to breathe, take or eat? In this modern time, water filter is a must, food supplement is a must, balanced food is a must but are we doing them well?

How balanced is our food we take? 'Macro' refers to the 3 meals of the day. The 3 meals refers to the 'more' intake. 'Micro' refers to the trace minerals, vitamins, phyto-nutrients that our body also need but in small amounts. Too much of anything is never good, but lack of just one rare mineral or vitamin will cause havoc. To get a balanced diet is the most important duty in the maintenance of good and proper health.

Scientists have proven that our body needs at least 40 nutrients a day! It contains 10 types of amino acids that our body cannot make, some vitamins, minerals and phyto-nutrients to keep our body fit and healthy!

And we need time to do proper exercise. We need time to do relaxing or detoxifying. We need time to recover! We need to earn them...

This really is a vast topic! One can write tons of books just from health care. Thus are we willing to invest our money to buy all those healthy foods and food supplements or spend time to get to know more about preventive measures?

[5] Persistence in action
Nothing is more important than to be consistent and persistent in what one is doing. To achieve total health, one should never stop in action. Our body metabolism must keep on, our body cells must be fed well to go on living healthy and we need to survive fit!

The above 5 fundamental points that contribute to our good health is too important to ignore. Health knowledge, health care, health prevention are a MUST! One will not live to regret when one is equipped with the basic knowledge of self health care. It PAYS!

Many 'doctors of the future' will appear, talking about the same thing, on preventive measures to stay healthy! Many now are more health conscious and at least rays of hope are shinning amongst us. Thus good health is earned! My message of today, 'Stay healthier and be happier!'

Post 811 The foundations of health..[part 1]

Health awareness + Health goals + Health knowledge + Health investment + Persistence in action = Good Physical Health

Health and wealth, health and beauty. They are always inter-related. If you want to be attractive, you need to stay healthy! If you want to enjoy life, you need to stay healthy too! Each one is never complete without the other. Let's talk more about health....

[1] Health awareness
Health awareness might come in the form of:
- own illness
- sufferings/pain
- illnesses from loved ones
- from health sources
- self awareness of good health
- from books and mass media

Health awareness is always a wake-up call for a person to be more health-conscious. Only then a person will be more conscious and be aware of the importance of health. Health is hope. When there is hope, we can have everything. Without health, one can never enjoy his assets or wealth or just being a good friend to another person. He is just too tired to get involved!

[2] Health goals
Health goals are for all of us. One should feel the need to be healthy and remain healthy. Good health needs to be earned. It never just happened or can be taken for granted. One need to understand his health line before adjusting himself to achieve GOOD health.

Draw a graph, one side good health, the other EARN, then draw a health line with 4 points, naming it A, B, C and D. Thus one will see a health line with 4 destinations/points. Earn refers to proper exercise, positive attitude, enough rest and balanced nutrition.

At A, one is under medical care or being hospitalized. He cannot work and is ill. He is in a great deficiency and suffering. His condition might either be going up to B or sliding down towards death. I call this level POOR health.

At B, one looks fine, he can work, can eat, can move around but in actual fact, he is under medication. He is dependent on pills. He might have all the modern sickness like high blood pressure, diabetes, headaches, sleepless nights, fatigue, allergies, stressful days, heart problems or kidney problems. Sometimes he is ill but not at all times. He is either underweight or overweight. Due to his illness, there are some food or drinks that he should never touch. I call this level FAIR.

At C, one really looks fine, he can work, can eat and is healthy all the time. He doesn't take any pills or under any medication. He can easily adapt to all environment and is not afraid of cold or heat. He can move around fine and is free of any modern sickness! He can eat almost anything given and feels good all the time! I call this level GOOD.

At D, one is at optimum health. Well, to say the truth, no one can be at this level unless it is a someone who is a saint and meditating in the Himalayan Mountains. He is stress free, work free, perhaps just meditating. He can well live through ripe ages, as long as 150 to 180 years old. Air is perfectly clean, water is perfectly clean and he worries for nothing, just emphasizing on his spiritual journey. I call this level OPTIMUM.

Understanding all these few points, one should aim to achieve the level of C. So, are you willing to go forward to attain level C? If this is your goal, then I congratulate you... when one has a goal, one knows the direction of his health clear and loud.

How much effort are we putting into it to earn and gain our health? To be fit and not ailing?

to be continued...

Post 808 What is happiness?

Man wants happiness. He shuns pain.
He moves heaven and earth to get
the happiness he wants from sensual objects,
and lo, gets himself entangled in the extricable meshes of illusion.

Poor man! He does not know that these objects
are perishable and evanescent, finite and
conditioned in time, space, and causation.

And what is more, he
fails to get the desired happiness from them.

Sensual pleasure is
tantalizing. There is enchantment so long
as man does not possess the objects.

The moment he is in possession of the object, the charm
vanishes. He finds that he is in entanglement.

Richness is not money, it is grace, wisdom and righteousness...

God is the manager of the bank of love.
You have deposited your money in His bank.

In order to withdraw money from this bank,
you have to submit the cheque of sacrifice
with the signature of love.

Love is God; live in love.
Any thing may happen,
your love for God should not change.

Only through such love can
you follow the path of sacrifice
and withdraw 'money' from the Divine bank.

Here 'money' does not mean currency notes.
It is the 'money' of grace, wisdom and righteousness.

So, here we are back to the 5 capabilities of our body and are we equiped with all of these?

The answer is still the same, eat enough of those required foods that will grow us, maintain our health, fight illnesses, repair body system, anti-stress, anti-aging and fight cancer!

The answer is referring to more natural foods like vegetables and fruits, unprocessed cereals and wild fished or wild gathered foods or fowls.

We need the 40 essential foods or nutrients to make us healthy, thus the need to supplement enough to be enough.

Too much is an excess, too little is inadequate! It is really a skill in how to maintain our health in all 4 levels. Follow the tao of eating!

How do one measure our ability to fight against cancer?


Antioxidants are powerful nutrients found in certain foods. As their name suggests, they work to protect your health by fighting against free radicals in your body and preventing damage from oxidation. Antioxidants are a necessity to every diet because no matter how healthy a lifestyle you lead you will be exposed to free radicals. In fact, we are all exposed to free radicals everyday,


Some free radicals are generated from normal body functions like breathing, metabolism and physical activity. Others are created by the immune system to neutralize viruses and bacteria. Still others are a result of environmental factors including pollution, radiation, herbicides and cigarette smoke. Free radicals attack healthy cells, causing them to weaken and become more susceptible to disease.


Flavonoids, found in fruits and vegetables, are the largest group of several thousand compounds belonging to the antioxidant-rich polyphenol family. Flavonoids are further broken down into subclasses that you have likely heard of such as anthocyanins, flavonols, flavones, flavanones and flavanols.


How much do we really know about foods that fight cancer? And how much can we eat?

How anti-aging are you? Do you still have a youthful look?


The largest group of these anti aging foods are the ones that contain antioxidants. Antioxidants are molecules that clear away free radicals, damaging particles that damage body cells and accelerate aging.


Free radicals are always being produced in our bodies, so antioxidants are constantly needed to remove the free radicals before they have a change to do damage. Many foods, particularly fruits, vegetables, and whole grains contain antioxidants, while a few are astonishingly high in these beneficial anti-aging food molecules. Three of the best are blueberries, red kidney beans, and cranberries.


Anti-aging food stars are the whole vegetables and fruits. Proteins should come primarily from beans, nuts, and seafood, with a minimum of dairy, poultry and red meat products. Healthy fats include olive oil and, to a lesser extent, other vegetable oils - avoid trans fats and saturated fats as much as possible.


Anti-aging foods are definitely worth a try. Supplementation can also ensure that you get the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and other nutrients you need, as sometimes even the most well-balanced diet is lacking in some essentials.


Can we eat them all?

How can you fight stress? How stress-fighting are you?




Important nutrients in the anti stress diet include zinc, which can be found in seafood such as oysters, whole wheat, nuts, seeds, eggs and lean meats. If you are not sensitive to dairy products, include cheese and yogurt in your anti stress diet.

When you are feeling stress, you may become deficient in magnesium. The anti stress diet emphasizes magnesium found in dark-green leafy vegetables, tomatoes, grapefruit, figs, sweet corn, raisins, carrots, seeds and nuts. You will want to consume fruits and vegetables such as those high in vitamin C including citrus fruit, cabbage and broccoli, strawberries, blackberries and kiwi.

Experts suggest an anti stress diet should include B vitamins, which are found in whole grains, yeast extract, yogurt, dates and liver. Your anti stress diet might also include brown rice, rye, oatmeal, quinoa and buckwheat.

When selecting protein sources, choose the leaner cuts of meat for your anti stress diet. Vegetarian products, such as those made from soy, may make a fine addition to an anti stress diet.

The best fats for an anti stress diet include sunflower or safflower oils, avocado, extra virgin olive oil, cold pressed walnut, unsalted nuts and sesame seeds.

Try to consume between five and 10 servings of fruits and vegetables every day to get enough fiber in your anti stress diet. A physical trainer may be able to tell you how much protein you should be consuming based on your particular lean muscle mass. Generally, experts say protein should be spread out throughout the day in four or five mini-meals.

It’s best to avoid foods high in refined sugar while on an anti stress diet. If you crave sugar, try eating fruit such as red grapes or treat yourself to raw honey. Bee pollen is known for reducing stress, making it a great supplement to an anti stress diet.

Also, herbal supplements that fit with the goals of an anti stress diet include Siberian ginseng, which supports adrenal gland functions when the body is challenged by stress. Chamomile, widely used for relaxation, may also be enjoyed as a tea.

Is it that easy to fight stress?

How strong is your immune system? Can your immune system protect you?


What can I do to support and maintain a healthy immune system?

  • Support a healthy digestive process. In particular, the acidic environment provided in your stomach and the presence of digestive enzymes can destroy some bacteria and viruses that you ingest in food, and therefore, provides protection for your body.
  • Consume adequate protein and healthy fats.
  • Provide for balanced immune and inflammatory functions. Clinical studies have shown that maintaining a healthy balance between omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids is one way to support balance in your immune and inflammation responses system.
  • Provide micronutrients and phytonutrients that support healthy immune function.
  • Decrease intake of allergens and toxins. Eating whole grains, fresh, organically grown fruits and vegetables, wild-caught fish, and meat and eggs from organically raised animals is one way to minimize the intake of toxins and unhealthy molecules that can inhibit your immune system's ability to protect your health.
  • Maintain healthy weight and cholesterol levels. We need to be consuming optimal levels of micronutrients and immune-supporting phytonutrients.
Can you eat that much? Are we doing that?

We eat to survive, not survive to eat! We eat food so as to continue living...


Food for Growth

Scientists have discovered that we need over 40 nutrients for growth!

There are six classes of nutrients. They are carbohydrates, protein, fats, vitamins, minerals, and water. You need different amounts of each nutrient each day due to the role each of them plays within your growing body. Depending on your body size and activity level you may need more or less of a certain nutrient than your friends do.


It can be hard to get enough of some nutrients at certain times. Sometimes nutrients are lost from foods. Vitamins and minerals are lost when grains are made into flour. But these nutrients are so important that they are added back into bread products. This is known as enrichment.


By eating a wide variety of foods you can be sure that you are getting the 40 nutrients you need each day. The Food Guide Pyramid will help you choose from each of the food groups in order to meet all of your needs.


Can we consume that much?

How repairing is our 'repair ability'? 你的修补能力能修的好吗?

How capable is our 'repair system'? How much can it really repair our body system?

Every day, every one of us are exposed to tear and wear. All of us are easily exposed to polluted air, polluted waters, polluted foods, UV rays, viruses, bateria, stress, illnesses, emotional disturbances, free radicals and natural aging.

"We wake up when the sun rises and sleep when the sun sets." Nature's law. Well, fair enough, we work and we rest, but are we willing to sleep when the sun sets? Thanks to Edison, yes, thanks to his invention. But do we not sometimes overuse this facility? And never feeling that time is enough for us?

Enough rest and sleep will revitalize and regenerate our energies. But do we really rest enough? Sometimes we rested but never felt really rested. And the food we eat. We are what we eat, we are what we drink, we are what we fill our stomach and lungs. What have we eaten? What have we drank? How clean is the air around us?

We study from school that our skin, cells, body organs, hair are made up of protein. So what protein have we been taking? How complete is the protein? How absorbable is the protein we take? And our eyes which need Vitamin A or carotenoids... Our body system is such a very complicated system that one needs to attend to every single part of our body.

Take a very careful look at what we have been eating and drinking. All these foods and drinks are the RAW MATERIALS that our body is using to grow, maintain and repair our body parts, from head to toe!

Ask oneself:
[1] do we consume ALL of those RAW MATERIALS that our body system need?
[2] do we consume ENOUGH of all those RAW MATERIALS that our body system need?
[3] do we consume TIMELY ENOUGH to have all those RAW MATERIALS to do the repairing?
[4] can one really understand what all these RAW MATERILAS should include?
[5] can one really understand what all these RAW MATERIALS can do for us?

We need not TAKE IN ACCESS, or too much BUT not even one should be missing!
什么都不多,一样有不可以少!This slogan should be referring to how much we need to take!

健康5大方向。。。。5 questions to ask oneself???

Some questions to ask oneself:

[1] How much can your body repair itself from damages done daily?
[2] How much can your body fight against bacterias, microbes, germs or viruses?
[3] How much can your body detox all those chemicals or toxic chemicals we ate, we drink, we breathe unknowingly or knowingly?
[4] How much can your body stand the stress or pressure of work and life's expectations or adapt to environmental changes?
[5] How much can your body fight against free radicals or premature aging or aging itself?


1)你有修补力吗? [repair ability]
2)免疫力? [immune or fighting ability]
3)排毒力? [detox ability]
4)抗压力? [anti-stress ability]
5)抗老力? [anti-aging ability]

Here are some of these considerations that one should take. We grow and survive from just those food we eat and take. Do you think we can survive healthy from just the 3 meals we eat daily and have all the above abilities to maintain our health?

Think twice... and think back what have we eaten everyday.....

Here is an article on arthritis or gout for a friend...

What is Gout?

Gout or arthritis is a disorder which results from an overflow of uric acid in the body. Uric acid is a product which develops when the body breaks down purines. Typically, the uric acid will flow through the blood, pass through the kidneys and end up in the urine to be expelled from the body. When uric acid overflow occurs in the blood, crystals deposit onto the joints and tissues of the body. A great deal of pain and swelling can be caused by gout, which is one of the many forms of arthritis.

Symptoms of gout include:
Stiffness
Difficulty moving around
Kidney damage
Sudden pain
Redness
Itchy skin
Permanent joint damage
Swelling
Peeling of skin
Sensitivity
Fever
Kidney stones
Heat in the joints

Gout is more severe when the weather is more humid. It can become extremely painful sometimes unbearable. The big toe gets it first because of the shoes to experience the effects of gout. Then the ankles, knees, wrists, spine, elbows, and fingers are other common areas. But more often it occurs at our joints because of the difficulty our body can flush out uric acids.

Chronic cases of gout last for long periods of time and may eventually result in permanent disability. It is best to stop it at the start, not allowing it to deteriorate.

Early treatment is the best way to quickly eliminate gout. Prevention is better than cure.

Several ways to treat gout include:
Consuming enough clean water
Not eating foods with high purine content
Not eating foods with high uric acids [red meats and fish]
Maintaining a daily exercise routine
Getting adequate rest
Appropriate medication/treatments
Surgery to replace joints
Glucosamine helps
Food supplement for bones and joints
Maintaining healthy body weight
Avoiding alcohol use

Attention:
Foods like red meats and fish that contains uric acids when taken in excess will worsen the problems. It will induce more pain and swell. Foods that has high purine content include varieties of beans, asparagus, scallops, herring, gravy, mushrooms and internal organs.

The food itself is of no problem, it is the EXCESS INTAKE and LACK OF CLEAN WATER TO FLUSH OUT that cause all these miseries. In some foods, purine can be extracted out!

Stretching of limbs occasionally will help to release the pain. But most of the time, gout is not the only problem, there might be other problems associated with gout.

I always emphasize on natural foods, thus one must reduce canned and preserved foods too. Always take fresh foods instead of salted or overnight stale food. The acidity of overnight foods are unexpectedly high.

Secret remedy:
Here is a simple thing one can do at home to reduce the pain. Fry some 50 gm of garlic till brown and hot. Wrap with a cotton cloth and rub the affected areas while hot. Try it several times a week and it helps.

Copper rings or keys when placed on the affected area will also reduce its pain.

Remember to drink more clean water and most important of all is to reduce weight. Most of these people are overweight and eat too much of the wrong food and never bother to exercise. A new health program to start with, a change of diet, a change of lifestyle will be necessary for a healthier and a happier you...

Cheers, be healthy and happy!

These are apples of different colours, but without the skin, they are the same... apples are apples...


Human beings live in this planet we called the 'earth' but sometimes divided by religion, race, colors, places, backgrounds, cultures, beliefs and differences or opinions. But we all are creations of our Creator who is the master of the cosmos, of this universe and all the other planets.

One should not allow the color of our skin to differentiate between one another. If one is born a black or a white or yellowish, can we change the fact and deny this very fact? No, we can't. We are born with our own colors of skin but it doesn't really matter.

Racial discriminations isn't going to help to attain peace and harmony. Check this out, if we were to close our eyes and listen well with our hearts, the other person sitting next to you is also breathing and his heart beating! There isn't any differences. Only when one opens his eyes that he knows his color is different!

All are brothers and sisters, all should live with love and unity..All are one, be alike to everyone! This is a message from a divine source!

People keep distance among one another due to differences of opinion. In fact, you are not different from others. Today they may appear to be different, but tomorrow they may come close to you.

All are brothers and sisters! Hence, all should live like brothers and sisters with love and unity. "All are one; be alike to everyone." This is God's special Message.

Every petals are designed to be part of this beautiful specimen, so are we... as brothers and sisters being part of human race...


All what we do are reflections of what and how we think...


Cultivate your nature in such a manner that the very feeling of anger does not enter you...

Several fuels like petroleum, coal,
etc. are extracted from deep within the earth.
Wherefrom did they arise in the first place?

Over a long period of time,
they have accumulated deep inside.
Now they are making their appearance outside.

In the same way, evil tendencies
like desire, anger, hatred, etc.,
are accumulated in you, hidden in you.

Sometime or the other,
they are bound to come out.
So, take care that they do not
even make their entry into you.

You should discriminate and
ensure that only good qualities enter you.
This is the true human value.

The very attempt to control or
restrain your anger is a sign of weakness.
In fact, you have to cultivate your nature
in such a manner that the very feeling
of anger does not enter you.

Doctors did the most difficult part! You just do the easiest, be healthy!


When in the hospital, I look at doctors on duty with wonder and awe, doing all those most difficult jobs that no one else are willing to do. These doctors touch, comfort, cure, cut and sew, listen and explain.... when facing some of the most ill patients! They have to attend to every ugly wounds, tear and wear of our body parts, swollen and infected flesh and blood!

I can feel their silence, their frustrations, their distresses, their hopeless shaking of their heads, the awareness of death approaching and yet sometimes nothing can be done to help! There are uncountable cases of death that just slipped through their fingers and yet they have done their very best!

Death to them is without a blink of an eye. These doctors are given new very ill cases at the same time. And very soon, their new patients will be joining the crowd of no-return. Maybe few will understand their situations, few will really appreciate what these doctors contributed, but they are there to fight to the last breathe!

Inside their hearts, an inner voice is always vivid, 'Why come for treatment so late?' Why at this last stage? Where is this miracle cure? Where is this miracle machine? Why can't we get 100% recovery for all these treatments?' Yet the number of patients keep lining up!

They care, they cure, they give treatments, yet these cancer patients crawled in but seldom or never walked out!

I don't want to emphasize on pain, on sufferings, on endurance and fear or stress of all these patients. I need not describe any scenes of what went on inside the operation theatres, the emergencies, the ICU wards, where cold steel and warm blood fights between life and death!

Why should I take all these problems to write such articles? The main purpose is to instill an awareness of being healthy. To prevent is so much better than cure. Be healthy, be responsible for your own health, your families and loved ones. Don't encourage and allow the war of cold steel and warm blood to continue! It is a matter of life and death!

I salute all doctors, all those wonderful doctors who have contributed that very much in these fields of treatments and cures. But we should at least try to lessen their nasty jobs, their noble jobs, their ever-increasing jobs BY KEEPING OURSELVES HEALTHY! This is the easiest job given! Take heed, don't join the crowd linning up to be 'slaughtered'!

Pls take note. Visit my health forum. Http://Health-forum.us/forum/ I have posted many health issues in this forum.

You want to be attractive, right? Be healthy!

To just want to be healthy is not enough, to acquire and stay healthy is a MUST! People used to say, easier said than done... well, it is!

Keeping and maintaining total health is a strong habit that one should acquire. It needs patience, it needs persistency, it needs knowledge, it needs day to day reviews and health routines such as adequate exercising and appropriate dieting and a balanced diet to look after...

But anyway, we come to this world only once... and we need a healthy body to do what we want to do.

We need a healthy body and a healthy mind. We need to plan our own health program and follow it with discipline. That is for the start. Plan a food pyramid that belongs to us and work out the plan as planned!

Soon it will be a habit... an excellent habit, a thumb-up habit that will ensure that we are on the right track... just keep it up, just do it and WOW... good health is upon you!

You will then look so youthful, so healthy and radiant with both eyes sparkling with energies and that is what we call... or we say... "ATTRACTIVE"Agreed?

This world can be a much happier place to live if...


Can you imagine a world of happy and healthy people with understanding smiles, encouraging nods and warm handshakes? And people whose eyes shine with friendship and love? And selfless people all ready to help each other?Well, go ahead and visualize this world to be full of these people, to be full of these wonderfully emotionally stable people.

Let us be surrounded with graceful people who are kind, who are understanding, who are generous, who are patient, who are forgiving and who speaks softly and never irritates you.

There will be no grumpy people, no complaining people, no selfish or greedy people. And they have peace at heart and peace of mind. No suspicion, no competition, no cheatings, no lies, no abuses, no fear, no fights, no revenges, no criticisms, no condemning or yelling at each other....

How wonderful this world will be then. How lovely this world will be then. And loving and caring people always ready to help, to guide and to share...It is such a nice feeling, such a peaceful feeling and that each are enjoying brotherly and sisterly love.

Yes, it will be, it will happen... BUT IT ALL STARTS FROM US, WE as AN INDIVIDUAL to learn to be at peace with each other. Yes, it all starts from us, do we have those loving qualities?

The string of change starts from we ourselves. We ourselves need to change, only then the world will change for the better. Only then we will be enjoying 'heaven on earth', otherwise it will be 'hell on earth'!

In this time of recession, are you the lion or a bee or the spider?







To break a rock is never with just one blow... perhaps it is the 30th blow! But those 29 blows were never wasted!


Patience is the word. Persistence is another word. It is never easy to break a rock. One needs a big hammer to crush it after giving it several blows. Perhaps it needs the 30th blow to crush the rock! Remember that all the previous 29 blows were never wasted!


Thus for whatever we have decided to do, be persistent. Be patient and one day we will see the results.

True love is the motive for us to fly...


The world of God can best be learnt, when one, with his will puts both his feet into it.


Fear not of challenges, most of us do eat chicken but we must take the trouble to get it killed, feather plucked, cleansed, chopped and cooked...


Fear not of challenges, like most of us do take chicken meats. We couldn't possibly just take and eat it raw or with its feathers on. If we want to eat some chicken meats, we need to take the trouble to have it killed, feather plucked, cleansed, chopped and cooked.
Even before one eat, one needs to be careful of the bones.

Thus life is never a bed of roses. Patience, forbearance, work, time, persistence, applied intelligence are all part and puzzle of life. Life is interesting indeed to where and when we must apply brakes or speed the way towards achieving what we intend to achieve.

Peace and contentment can be won only by surrender to God...

Even the most comfortable house
equipped with all the luxuries man craves for,
cannot endow one with peace and contentment .

That can be won only by surrender to God,
who is the very core of one's being.
God is the source of contentment.

Attaining Him, the spirit can be immersed in joy.
God alone feeds all with bliss. If God is not shining
in the firmament of the heart, how can one even live?

Revere your mother and father as God, make them happy!

Revere your mother and father as God.
You must understand that parents are verily God.
If you make your parents happy,
the whole world will be happy.

It is meaningless to worship God
without revering one's own parents.
First of all, offer worship to your mother
as she is the one who has given you birth.

It is because of the nobility of the mother
that the children attain good fortune.
The parents have given you their blood,
their wealth and have brought you up with
great love and care, sparing no pains.

So, you must love your parents
and be grateful to them. That is true devotion.
There is no greater devotion than this.

No doubt, one is bound by the result of one's own actions...


Just as the electric current passes through the wire, intellect enters and influences all senses of a human being. Hence, every human being should make proper use of their intellect and undertake only righteous actions at all times. No doubt, one is boundby the result of one's own actions-- good or bad. And, no result is possible without performing an action.

Man needs a healthy body in order to have a healthy mind filled with good thoughts...

Man needs a healthy body
in order to have a healthy mind
filled with good thoughts.

It must be recognised
that the purpose of sports
and music is to confer health
and happiness on man.

There are three benefits
to be derived from sports and games:
team spirit, mutual understanding and joy.

Even if men speak different languages
and differ in their habits and cultures,
in the field of sports they have a common bond,
a spirit of camaraderie.

True education consists
in the cultivation of good thoughts
and acquiring good qualities like truthfulness,
devotion, discipline, and dedication.

These are also the qualities
that should be acquired through sports and games.
These qualities serve to impart health and joy to the subtle body.

Post 770. Your only problems in life is your negative beliefs...


The only problems in life is one's negative beliefs. If only one can belief that we are whole and healthy physically, mentally and emotionally, nothing can get into our way towards achieving better health.

We are what we eat, we are what we feel, we are what we think we are...
Get the problem solved, at least learn to accept positive beliefs..

3 conditions that one needs to be in
[1] believe in evidences/proofs
[2] the will to change for the better
[3] a way/a plan to work out for the better

Seeing is believing, changing for the better, follow the right path... a positive change awaits all of us!

You can tap into the healer within.... to heal, to improve, to love and to be at peace with yourself...

It is not difficult to communicate with your own subconscious and tap into the healer within. You can trust your own internal computer system which is your subconscious mind. Our mind is capable of storing vast amounts of information.

Let's look at it in a simple way, it has been said many times that we humans use only about ten percent of our brain. What is really meant by this is that the conscious mind needs about 10% of our brain’s resources. In other words, thinking, moving about, making choices, planning, seeing, hearing, tasting, touching, and smelling are all conscious activities, and take up 10% of our processing power.

By then, what is the other 90% of the brain doing?

If the conscious mind takes up 10% of your brain, we can refer to the other 90% as the subconscious mind. This silent and unconscious majority of the brain is constantly busy storing information and keeping your body systems running efficiently. It also is important to understand that the subconscious mind exerts an unseen yet profound influence over the things we do and how we behave and feel.

Most people give little thought to their subconscious minds. But imagine for a moment having to take over the functions that your subconscious mind performs. Imagine the difficulty of instructing your digestive system how to digest your lunch, or telling your cells how to create enzymes and proteins.

What about your heart beating or breathing in air, moving in and out of your lungs every moment of everyday. And you think you have full control of all?

Under certain circumstances, memories return to them when a certain area of the brain is stimulated. Someone might suddenly remember a scene, a smell, or a sound from a particular moment in their life when stimulated.

Often these flashes of memory are about events or scenes that would be unremembered under normal circumstances. In the same precise spot, the same memory will be re-lived.

Our sub-conscious mind is an amazing recording device. Certainly everything that you’ve ever done in your entire life has been logged in your subconscious mind. Every face you’ve ever seen in your life, every taste, every voice, every song, every smell, every touch and every sensation you have ever experienced has been recorded by your subconscious.

Every illness, every virus, bacteria or mould that has ever invaded your body, all your disappointments, all your thoughts and feelings, and the entire history of every cell in your body have all been stored well for reference.

Your subconscious is also aware of any trapped emotions that your body may be harboring, and it also knows exactly what effect these trapped emotions are having on your physical, emotional and mental well being. All of this and more is locked away in the subconscious mind.

Thus, definitely your subconscious mind is also aware of exactly what your body needs in order to get well. Be willing to be at peace with yourself because we are fully responsible for our own health! Tap your healer within!

Post 767, EFT? emotional freedom techniques...

EFT refers to emotional freedom techniques. EFT is very safe where emotional relief brings physical health. It is also a self help method which often works where nothing else will. There is no drugs involved and with high success rates too.

EFT offers great healing benefits, said Deepak Chopra, MD.

It is a surprising natural healing aid that one can use for almost everything.

Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) is an emotional, needle free version of acupuncture that is based on new discoveries regarding the connection between your body's subtle energies, your emotions, and your health.

EFT has been reported successful in thousands of cases covering a huge range of emotional, health and performance issues.

This quote by Eric Robins, MD captures the essence of EFT:

"Some day the medical profession will wake up and realize that unresolved emotional issues are the main cause of 85% of all illnesses. When they do, EFT will be one of their primary healing tools .... as it is for me."

Though it is quite new to many, EFT is easy to learn. One can go online to check on more of this wonderful emotional release, called tapping. Easy to learn yet effective...
