Dear all whom i care for,
I have come across many instances where people (and
myself) feel compelled to want to bring peace, love
and harmony into the world. And sometimes up to the
point where we hate or discriminate others who we feel
responsible for war and hatred and evil.
During my spiritual studies and search, the one answer
i was repeatedly shown, was that, in the Divine and
Higher way, and the Only way that actually makes a
difference, is by first, being at peace within us thru
self-realisation. Its not a religious thing, but, in
the spiritual aspect, they say the thoughts we make in
the head, (even the split seconds that you are
thinking now) manifests your instant life. Around you,
and around the world. What we attract, is what we had
set sail in the first place, in our thoughts.
My discoveries, which are ancient news, is that if we
have reached the higher state of energy level, we can
all affect the world's energy like manifesting war and
peace. This is why many spiritual leaders and
practitioners meditate and sit in peace and live in
peace in themselves. They know that the only way, is
not the preach non-violence and force non-violence.
But actually hold in mind, and manifest it through
their God-connection in meditation and
prayers/affirmations and own doing.
The energy in the mind is very very powerful. This is
why u do find workshops / training to teach How we can
master the mind, or about the power of the cosmic
mind. Because its true and it works. But how we master
it and how we choose to use it is even more important.
Imagine, if you were coming from a blaming perception in
thoughts (not even in action yet) to yr neighbour, u would
have started a cycle of negative thoughts already and
punishing thoughts to them. Everything starts right in
front of u, How we speak, think and choose to interpret
things towards, your spouse, your neighbour, yr collegues, etc.
When I started to realise this, and decided to
practice peace within me, I could see the change in my
perception of the world. and also control my temper,
moods. and how i react and how i choose to see the
world too. I also stopped manifesting negative
energies, but started to work within myself for what
faults i carry and bring the peace I find to others.
and have that pay it forward. OF course, its a long
journey for me, like everyone, and I still have
continuos work on myself. Its a constant practice of
self awareness.
Only peace in individual minds can bring peace in the
world.
Therefore, let our striving and endeavour for internal
peace be an unceasing one; spread it wide; enlarge the
circle of those who feel and contemplate peacefully.
That is the only way for world peace.
Yesterday, was one of the 7 spiritual dates for year
2005, falling on a very big bright beautiful full
moon. (June 22, July 22, Aug 19, Sept 18,
Oct 17, Nov 15, Dec15)
I share peace and healing to you and your family and
to the world in my prayers.
My journey has been blessed to receive guidance and realisations as I choose peace and to be one with all.
namaste to you all, Si-Y

L ~ Our Blind Animal Mind
The animal lives in the world of form. The basic elements of survival are body, food, and the ability to discern enemies. The animal brain evolves, therefore to facilitate perception. As we look beyond the content of the ego, we come to quality of critical importance to the seeker of enlightenment — its basic function of perception. This is of great use to the animal but it results in the creation of duality in the filed of consciousness in which location, direction and timing arise because they are necessary for the survival o the animal. Eg. to catch a prey, it is necessary to form a dualistic perception of a 'here' vs a 'there'. The limitation of form results in the reliance on the senses. Thus arises the concepts of space and idstance, and the ego conludes that this perception signifies reality.
Man evolved beyond and the ego learned the manipulation of images in the form of thought. These images became sophisticated and allowed for the discernment of how things are alike well as how they were different. (eg. the classic left vs right brain analogy or digital vs analog computer.
The forebrain enlarged to handle the now complex thinking in abstract concepts, symbols and language. This was an 'add-on' to the old animal brain. Thus the new brain had the advantage and disadvantage of the old and new, without a disconnect switch between the two regions; thus the animal emotions could flood the intellect with fear anger, greed, etc. The intellect would also manufacture sequences of images associated with the animal drives.
Therefore, the structure of the ego and not just its content is the major impediment to spiritual advancement.
However, spiritual progress is possible cos the mind, thru understanding, is able to recontextualize the contents of the ego and discern its very mechanism. Once this occurs, one is no longer blindly 'at the mercy' of the ego.

L ~ Zen 'ox-herding'
1st picture, the ego is like a wild animal
2nd picture, the animal is tamed and controlled
Next, the ego is transcended
Last picture, it disappears

L ~ Humility n Curiosity
The antidote to pride is humility, which does not mean to humble oneself but instead means to give up vanity and pretense and consider realistic appraisal. The benefit of true humility is that it prevents later 'egg on the face' disgrace as well as self destruction.
Humility means accurate, realistic assessment and awareness of limits and parameters.
Exploration is innate to mankind, and its highest levels lead to spiritual inquiry. This brings up the Qs of who am I, what am I, where did I come from, what is the origin and destiny of the self, and who and wher is God.
With humility, this curiosity can be an advantage to the spiritual seeker as a useful servant. Without discernment, however it can lead to serious pitfalls, blind alleys and useless distractions. This is where a true teacher is necessary.

My Poem ~ So'ham
Dedicated to the Infinite
--------------------------------
In the tranquility of breath, the peace of mind will prevail
In the chaos and doubts, the heart will open to seek
In the thirst for answers, the quest will begin with a step
In the face of truth, the being will be free
In the solace of God, So'ham, the infinite.
~ by Si-Y
here's an excerpt i read somewhere sometime ago ...
So'ham — The natural mantra, the mantra of your true self
The meaning of So'ham is "I am That". Through these two syllables, we contemplate our oneness with the supreme consciousness.
Observing the So'ham is a natural Sadhana, a natural yoga. It is known as ajapa-japa, the unrepeated mantra repetition. Since So'ham goes on within you all the time, you do not have to make an effort to repeat it. All you have to do is become aware of it. You do not need any faith. You just have to watch the space of truth.
Those who contemplate So' ham ceaselessly, discarding worldly entanglements, they attain the supreme state and their worldly bondage is destroyed.

THE MEANING OF OM
OM is the most often chanted sound among all the sacred sounds on earth. This sound is considered as the sound of the existence.
It is believed that the whole universe, in its fundamental form, is made up of vibrating, pulsating energy. Om is considered as the humming sound of this cosmic energy.
OM is the sound which is not the result of the striking of two objects. It, rather emanates on its own. It is the primal sound of the universe that contains all sounds in itself.
It is actually not a word, it is a sound. As per Hindu tradition, OM is the purest name of God. It is the sound of the supreme consciousness. So when you reapeat OM, you actualy take the name of God.
Now without going into the further philosophical explanation of OM, let us learn how to meditate using OM. Repetition of OM or AUM dissolves the mind it its divine source. The chanting of OM several time loud, purifies the atmosphere.
Sit in a comfortable undisturbed place. Take some deep breath. Now chant at least 7 times OM in succession. Make each breath last as long as possible. Teak deep breath and chant Oooooooo~~~~~hhhhhhhhhh~~~~~ Mmmmmmm~~~~~. Then again repeat this chanting of OM. Do this for 7 times. After this, stop chanting and sit for a moment of silence. You will be amazed by the inner peace you'll get in such a small chanting of OM.
Listen the sound of Universe : Let us listen the sound of OM. You are requested to listen carefully. This sound of OM produces instant positive vibrations and takes the listener to a state of mental stillness.
Chanting the OM mantra for 15 minutes daily can produce remarkable effect in you. This mantra will help you to calm the mind, settled the thought process and realize the self.

0 are points to inner gifts or potential resources. These resources tend to enhance the energies of the other number as well as signal refined or amplified qualities of sensitivity, strength, expressiveness, and intuition.
Sensitivy —empathy, ability to tune in at a feeling level (counselling or teaching). Negative, emotional sponge from others, or display codependence, hurt easily.
Strength — vigor and vitality, or fortitude or persistence. powerful at supporting others or lead. IN negative, stubborness, agreesiveness, resistance.
Expressiveness — silver tongue, a way with words, conveying special felling, uplifting others thru inspiration or enthusiasm. With or w/o words, commnications thru art, music or others are effective becos they touch at an emotional level. In negative, can cut others to ribbons, so must be used aligned with higher principles.
Intuition — this dissolves conventional barriers between the material realm and more subtle dimensions of perception and experience, enabling those with this resource to follow a kind of innervision. Make excellent counselors and healers. in the Negative, they may experience internal inteference from others' tots and feelings, from subtle entities, or from energies unnoticed by others. They need to check out internal message by asking if it is for the highest good of all concerned.
Inner gifts usually mature after 35 yrs old. Are only manifest to the degree individuals working 0 have cleared the life issues. The higher the commitment to service, the more powerfully these gifts manifest.
CONTEMPLATING INNER GIFTS
1. Consider yr sensitiviy: How have u used this gift? How has it used u? IN what ways might u apply t's resource in service of others?
2. Consider yr strength: Has it manifested as inner strength, outer strength, or both? Do you appreciate this gift? How might you use it more fully in yr life?
3. Consider yr expressiveness: How has it moved into the world — in yr relationships n work? Have u felt aware of this gift, or have u doubted it? How might you use expressiveness in the most positive way?
4. Consider yr intuition: Do you trust yr clear intuitive capacities when making decisions or when guiding others? Do you notice that when you contact yr heart, yr intuition opens wide?

SPIRITUAL LAWS TO CHANGE YR LIVE
THe Law of Honesty: Acknowledgng feelings to ourselves and others is the foundation of honesty
The Law of Intuition: As we stop monitoring others opinions, we connect with our hearts wisdom
The Law of Action: TO overcome insecurity, we need to ack our vulnerability but act with confidence
The Law of CHoices: Creativity is an energy we can choose to apply in positive or negative ways
The Law of Higher Will: By our willingness to serve a higher purpose, we inspire ourselves and others.
2) Do the exercises you find for each of these laws.
3) COnsider how u might apply each law to yr life.
THE LAW OF HONESTY
Recognizing , accepting and expresisng our authentic interior reality lies at the heart of honest; only whenwe honest with ourselves can we speak or act honestly with anyone else. In the sense of integrity, honest entails acting in line with higher laws in favor of negative impulses to the contrary.
Live according to yr highest light and more light will be given. ~ Peace Pilgrim
THE LAW OF INTUITION
We can only get in touch with our own source of intuition and wisdom when we no longer depend upon others' opinions for our sense of identity or worth; we all tend to worship something; the question is, will we worship the god of opinion, or the god of our heart?
I found I had less and less to say, until finally, I became silent, and began to listen. I discovered in the silence, the voice of God. ~ Soren KierkeGaard
THE LAW OF ACTION
No matter what we feel or know, no matter what our potential gifts or talents, only action brings them to life. Those of us who only think we understand concepts, such as commitment, courage and love, one may discover that we only know when we act, doing becomes understanding.
Vision isnt enough unless combined with venture. It's not enough to stare up the steps unless we also step up the stairs. ~ Vance Havner
THE LAW OF CHOICES
The most basic choice we have in life is whether to expand or contract, whether to bring our creative and expressive energies our into the world in positive or negative ways. No matter what our circumstances, we have the power to choose our directions.
IN each of us are heroes; speak to them and they will come forth. ~ A
We have to live and we have to die; the rest we make up. ~A
We create in constructive and in destructive ways; either way creative energy finds expression.
THE LAW OF HIGHER WILL
From the viewpoint of our separate self and smaller will, it's normal to act on the basis of our own desires and preferences; when we surrender our smaller self and will to the guidance of a higher will and dedicate our actions for the highest good of all concerned, we feel an inspired flow at the center of our life.
Life is this simple: We are living in a transparent world, and God shines thru in every moment. This is not just a fable or a nice story; it is living truth. If we remember God, abandon ourselves to God, and forget ourselves we may see this truth: GOd manifests everywhere, in everything. We cannot be without God. Its impossible. Its simply impossible.
~ Thomas Merton
ENERGIES OF R'SHIP
3 Expression and Sensitivity
Positive — they can create a deep empathic bond thru clear expression and shared feelings, so they feel unified in
their mutual understanding. Honesty is the touchstone and conversation is stimulating. The 3 energy brings romance for lovers and heartfelt friendship btwn fds.
Negative — the 3s can suffer from too much need and not enough giving from self pity or depresion due to hidden senstivities and unexpressed feelings, as when both say what they think instead of what they feel.
10 Creativity and Confidence with Inner Gifts
POsitive — closeness and intensity of siblings; its as if the 2 have known each other before; their connection can create passionate energy they can direct both spiritual and material realms, manifesting as shared creativity and service.
Negative — argumnents and hurt feelings due to uspoken sensitivity. both may feel suppressed irritation and insecureity due to competitiveness; neither wants to lose face. Stress-related addictions may result.
9 Integrity and Wisdom
Positive — Founded upon or develops a deep connection thru connection and tolerance; these indiividuals are togetther to teach each about integrity and life thru their differences; this provides a rare opp for inner growth and mutual tolerance by respecting each other's differences.
Negative — entails a lonely, cut off feeling, a sense of disconnection of the 2 ppl from each other, and even from themselves. The 2 may expereicen a cant live with or without feeling. Strong opinions clash becos they see life differenty

THE LAW OF HONESTY
Recognizing , accepting and expresisng our authentic interior reality lies at the heart of honest; only whenwe honest with ourselves can we speak or act honestly with anyone else. In the sense of integrity, honest entails acting in line with higher laws in favor of negative impulses to the contrary.
Live according to yr highest light and more light will be given. ~ Peace Pilgrim
THE LAW OF INTUITION
We can only get in touch with our own source of intuition and wisdom when we no longer depend upon others' opinions for our sense of identity or worth; we all tend to worship something; the question is, will we worship the god of opinion, or the god of our heart?
I found I had less and less to say, until finally, I became silent, and began to listen. I discovered in the silence, the voice of God. ~ Soren KierkeGaard
THE LAW OF ACTION
No matter what we feel or know, no matter what our potential gifts or talents, only action brings them to life. Those of us who only think we understand concepts, such as commitment, courage and love, one may discover that we only know when we act, doing becomes understanding.
Vision isnt enough unless combined with venture. It's not enough to stare up the steps unless we also step up the stairs. ~ Vance Havner
THE LAW OF CHOICES
The most basic choice we have in life is whether to expand or contract, whether to bring our creative and expressive energies our into the world in positive or negative ways. No matter what our circumstances, we have the power to choose our directions.
IN each of us are heroes; speak to them and they will come forth. ~ A
We have to live and we have to die; the rest we make up. ~A
We create in constructive and in destructive ways; either way creative energy finds expression.
THE LAW OF HIGHER WILL
From the viewpoint of our separate self and smaller will, it's normal to act on the basis of our own desires and preferences; when we surrender our smaller self and will to the guidance of a higher will and dedicate our actions for the highest good of all concerned, we feel an inspired flow at the center of our life.
Life is this simple: We are living in a transparent world, and God shines thru in every moment. This is not just a fable or a nice story; it is living truth. If we remember God, abandon ourselves to God, and forget ourselves we may see this truth: GOd manifests everywhere, in everything. We cannot be without God. Its impossible. Its simply impossible.
~ Thomas Merton

sharana
he speaks in a deep tone sometimes slow quiet manner. he has a wide mouth that grins with showy white teeth in a nice straight row against his medium dark skin. an energy that gives peace and quietness but jolly laughters that vibrates straight from his belly barrel. his hair pleates down to his shoulder blades in white wiry patterns. his spontaneousity is a mirror of his best pals humour. witty and anew. his gestures are simple, pure and straight from the heart. he humbly respects the universe a great deal. a spiritual guide to many. to me. he is a friend to those in need. one in a million. a man of heart who speaks of freedom and love. a man i never thought i'd meet in this lifetime. a man who taught me self love and self respect. universe, thank you.
