One of the keys to Peace

The Tao Of Forgiveness One day, the sage gave the disciple an empty sack and a basket of potatoes. "Think of all the people who have done or said something against you in the recent past, especially those you cannot forgive. For each of them, inscribe the name on a potato and put it in the sack." The disciple came up quite a few names, and soon his sack was heavy with potatoes. "Carry the sack with you wherever you go for a week," said the sage. "We'll talk after that." At first, the disciple thought nothing of it. Carrying the sack was not particularly difficult. But after a while, it became more of a burden. It sometimes got in the way, and it seemed to require more effort to carry as time went on, even though its weight remained the same. After a few days, the sack began to smell. The carved potatoes gave off a ripe odor. Not only were they increasingly inconvenient to carry around, they were also becoming rather unpleasant. Finally, the week was ov

Pay Yourself First.

Pay yourself First is the First actual key to get into the wealthy. Not everyone realize that the money he makes everyday are not for themselves, even at this moment he reads this sentence, now. Even me, i did. Much of the workers have their salary, after one or two weeks have to start to use their money more carefully, afraid not enough. Part of them maybe have save the money for next year for buy a car, house, etc or to take a family vacation next month... can you see where our wealthy go away for? pay the tailor, shoe maker, chef, taxi drivers, bankers, farmers, many entrepreneurs, etc or to tour and travel company...hahaha Do you pay yourself after there is still remain?

The Tibetan Book of the Dead

The Tibetan Book of the Dead, whose actual title is "The Great Liberation upon Hearing in the Intermediate State" or "Bardo Thodol", is traditionally believed to be the work of the legendary Padma Sambhava in the 8th century A.D. The book acts as a guide for the dead during the state that intervenes death and the next rebirth. He is considered to be one of the first persons to bring Buddhism to Tibet. The Bardo Thodol is a guide that is read aloud to the dead while they are in the state between death and reincarnation in order for them to recognize the nature of their mind and attain liberation from the cycle of rebirth. The Bardo Thodol teaches that once awareness is freed from the body, it creates its own reality as one would experience in a dream. This dream occurs in various phases (bardos) in ways both wonderful and terrifying. Overwhelming peaceful and wrathful visions and deities appear. Since the deceased's awareness is in confusion of no longer being co

The Origin of The World

It is common for people who are exploring religion to ask questions regarding the origins of the world. Since time immemorial people have speculated about this question. Most religions will teach that the world was created by a Creator; - God. For many people, this seems to be satisfactory. However, if one seriously thinks about it, this answer is merely a placebo - something that does not have any real value other than to satisfy the incessant queries of a questioner. To say that the world started with a Creator God is no better than to say that the origin of yoghurt is milk, or the origin of a plant is the seed. Simplistic minds do not seem to have a need to see further back beyond that. The reason for this is that our mind is conditioned to see things in a linear manner; that is having a starting point and an end. This article has a start and an end, so is the table before you and so on. However, there are many, many things in this universe that have no beginning and no end. Look at

'I'm the happiest (& richest) investor because ...'

By Paul B. Farrell, MarketWatch, Dec. 24, 2007 ARROYO GRANDE, Calif. (USA) -- Thanks for stopping by. Won't keep you long. I know you need to get back to loved ones. Celebrate. Prepare dinner. Open presents. Watch a game. Laugh. Have some fun. Or just take a nap. But while you're here, take a moment. Whether you're Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, Muslim or atheist, we can all celebrate today's universal spirit. How? Try this. Simply answer this question: "I'm the happiest (and richest) investor because ..." You say that's impossible? After all, how can each one of us be "the happiest," let alone "the richest." Logically it can't be. Or can it? Imagine you're in a parallel universe. Or in a movie. Besides, aren't we all in our very own worlds? So yes, you can be the happiest and richest ... in your special way, with your special loved ones. Now you're in the spirit! Be like a kid on The Polar Express, having fun, chuggi

Merujuk pada Tujuan akhir

Dalam pikiran anda, lihatlah diri anda sedang pergi ke pemakaman orang yang anda kasihi. Gambarkan diri anda mengemudi mobil menuju rumah duka atau kapel, memarkir mobil, dan keluar. ketika anda berjalan memasuki gedung, anda melihat bunga-bunga dan mendengar musik organ yang lembut. anda melihat wajah-wajah teman dan keluarga yang anda lewati. Anda merasakan penderitaan bersama karena kehilangan, senang karena pernah kenal, yang memancar dari hati orang-orang yang ada disana. sementara anda berjalan ke depan ruangan dan melihat ke dalam peti jenazah, anda tiba-tiba berhadapan muka dengan diri anda sendiri. ini adalah pemakamanan anda sendiri, tiga tahun dari sekarang. semua orang ini datang untuk menghormati anda, untuk mengekpresikan perasaan cinta dan penghargaan untuk hidup anda. ketika anda mengambil tempat duduk dan menunggu upacara dimulai, anda melihat daftar acara ditangan anda. akan ada empat orang pembicara. yang pertama berasal dari keluarga anda, kerabat keluarga dekat and

HUMAN MOVIE

Skenario 1 Andaikan kita sedang naik di dalam sebuah kereta ekonomi. Karena tidak mendapatkan tempat duduk, kita berdiri di dalam gerbong tersebut. Suasana cukup ramai meskipun masih ada tempat bagi kita untuk menggoyang-goyangka n kaki. Kita tidak menyadari handphone kita terjatuh. Ada orang yang melihatnya, memungutnya dan langsung mengembalikannya kepada kita. "Pak, handphone bapak barusan jatuh nih," kata orang tersebut seraya memberikan handphone milik kita. Apa yang akan kita lakukan kepada orang tersebut? Mungkin kita akan mengucapkan terima kasih dan berlalu begitu saja. Skenario 2 Sekarang kita beralih kepada skenario kedua. Handphone kita terjatuh dan ada orang yang melihatnya dan memungutnya. Orang itu tahu handphone itu milik kita tetapi tidak langsung memberikannya kepada kita. Hingga tiba saatnya kita akan turun dari kereta, kita baru menyadari handphone kita hilang. Sesaat sebelum kita turun dari kereta, orang itu ngembalikan handphone kita sambil berkata, &quo
