Jass a story...

Jass has been very unhappy with her life.  She blamed it all on others instead on herself although she feels guilty inside for not being happy.  She tried to be happy most of the time, but there's always something or the other that makes her unhappy again.  It could be anything.  From work, to people she just met, to things that she is not doing.  Nothing in her life makes her happy, nothing makes her satisfied.  She is always hoping for God to appear in front of her and tell her what's wrong with her, to tell her what lies ahead of her and how to be happy.  Tired and desperate, her last attempt was to completely surrender to the Divine.

One day she was woken up by an elephant-headed-body-of-a-child personality.  He took her hands and when he opened her room door, instead of looking out to another hall, it was a beautiful garden.  He skipped and danced around the garden, smelling all the fragrant flowers and rolling on the green grass.  He climbed a mango tree and plucked a ripe mango and gave it to Jass.  He took Jass' hands and danced with her, make her swirl in delight, turning round and round and looking towards the blue sky, she remembers her childhood days.

Jass accidentally dropped her mango and the mango disappeared and Jass became upset immediately.  Blaming on her own carelessness and feeling sorry for losing a present, she stopped dancing and starred at the place where the mango disappeared, frowning to herself.  She decided that there's no point dancing around anymore and just want to go home, having predicted that she is going to have a bad day ahead after this small incident.

The elephant-headed child looked at her and smiled.  He says to her, "Don't be unhappy.  There are many more mangoes up that tree.  Forget about the one you lost.  Let's just play."  The elephant-headed child just skipped and continue his dancing.  Jass looked at the child and tears welled up in her eyes.  If only she could be like him, so innocent and full of wisdom.  If only she could look at her life in that aspect and not fret about every single things in life.  Happiness would come to her.  She thought to herself, if only.

Suddenly she was back in her own house.  Lying on her bed, staring at the ceiling.  It was pitch dark as it was still night time.  Jass went back to sleep with remnants of the dream lingering.

Jass woke up and it was Tuesday.  She went to work and went on with her routine.  She noticed that she was behaving a bit differently compared to the other days.  She was paying attention to her surrounding, to trees and flowers, to the birds chirping and warmth of the sun.  She closed her eyes as she let the sun touched her face and remembering the elephant-headed child dancing in joy.  She smiled to herself and enjoying the present moment and appreciating the little things in life. She realises the importance of being in the present and to appreciate every single thing in her life.  That is the basis of happiness.

Have you look at Shri Mataji's bindi before?

The red dot on Her forehead?  We looked at Her beautiful face a lot but how often do we look at Her bindi? Past few days have been a struggle for me to get by.  I can't seem to think properly and having a tough time trying to rationalise and be balance.  It's not because of the recent happenings.  It has been accumulating from many, many nights before that.  Attention was all over the place.  I lost control of myself.  I don't know what I want to do.  I don't know how to move on.  I felt a little lost.  I think and think and think.  I tired myself out and finally declared that it's fatigue.   Last night, decided to pull myself together.  Sat in front of Shri Mataji's photo and just looked at Her big, round red bindi.  At first it was difficult.  Eyes wandering.  Then after some time, it was much better.  I managed to focus.  That's when a realisation came to me and I got all the answers fo...

Matka pot treatment - Night 1

I started the matka pot treatment last night.  Been feeling a lot of left agnya catch lately, so thought that it is high time to do a matka pot treatment.  Here is what we need: 7 limes (I heard in Belgium, they used 7 lemons, so the pot that they used is so big and they have a hard time trying to dispose the pot after the 7 nights).  Cut the top of the limes to expose a bit of the flesh. 7 chillies.  Remove the top of the chillies (I don't know what you call, stem or stalk).  I used small chillies so that they can fit into the matka pot. 1 matka pot (here in Malaysia we used claypot that they cooked claypot rice, glazed inside so that it will not leak) Vibrated water So, you put everything into the pot and vibrate in front of Shri Mataji's photo.  Pray that the matka pot will absorb all the catches and negativities.  Then place it on the left side of the bed.  I put it under the bed but you can also put it on a side table on ...
