Chinese New Year is just around the corner

To be exact, CNY is just 3 days away. In the past I have written about CNY 2009 and CNY 2010. This year CNY will be a little different, well, not little actually, a HUGE different. This is the first time ever that I will be celebrating Chinese New Year out of the country with my parents. I am going to Foshan / Guangzhou!!!

I have been trying to research on the net on places to visit and food to eat. Found those and the rest will just let my fiance take the lead. I wanted to read more from Guangzhou (Foshan not as popular yet) blogs from an expat point of view, especially food, places of interest, how CNY is celebrated there, but can't really find one blog that has those in English. Maybe I should start one, oh wait, did China ban Blogger too?

Anyway, when I come back, I will post about my trip to China. It's going to be quite interesting. I was in China more than 10 years ago, had a horrible time and I said I will never step foot in China again. Well, looks like the Divine has other plans for me, so now I am stepping foot into China again after 10 years.

It's going to be a mixture of feelings. Excited, anxious, worrisome, fear, happy and all. Wishing all Chinese, HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR, "KONG HEI FATT CHOI" and "XIN NIAN KUAI LE".

Shri Mataji, I surrender all the fears, anticipation, expectations, obstacles to You. I pray that everything will be smooth and fun!

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 ...
