Lost in Translation

I asked my husband jokingly whether he can gift me a mobile phone for Christmas and I was very surprised when he immediately said YES!   I asked him whether he was sure and again he said YES, and suggested to research the net to see which one to buy.  From surprise to elated, I was so happy that he agreed so fast without hesitation. So, the conversation was on Whatsapp and in Chinese and I was using Navita Translator to translate. Turns out I wrote  手机绳  instead of  手机  and the former means mobile phone strap. No wonder he said YES so fast!

Meditation at 5am

I woke up at 5 this morning and meditated.  It was a good feeling.  A sister in Sahaj just came back from the Sahaja Yoga Health Centre in Delhi and shared her experiences with me.  She learn how to meditate from the doctors there.  So she taught me how to do it, the right way. Teaching one to meditate is not easy because it's internal and an experience that individual feels differently.  Meditation takes practice.   I started using the method she taught how to meditate last night and found it was really good.  It was simple,  yet not that easy to accomplish.  What we need to do is to put our attention on Sahasrara all the time and watch the attention, ensure no thoughts and bring ourselves to balance by just putting attention on Sahasrara. What I noticed for myself is that my attention is running like a wild horse.  Moving from left to right.  From thoughts of what had happened to thoughts of what I am going to do next...
