Conquer Thyself

Conquer your own mental defilements first.  It is You versus You. And remember that you are your greatest enemy. Recognise your own shortcomings and do your best to conquer them instead. Do not spend time criticizing or condemning other people. Because others have to go through their  life lessons according to their own individual karmic obligations.

Spiritual Pride

Eliminate pride as it is the greatest downfall of any disciple. Remember that you are only a humble divine healing instrument. It is no point bluffing yourself as to how high you have attained in terms of your skills, knowledge, or meditative experiences. People will just have to observe your conduct and behaviour to really determine where you are. Walk the talk and be a role model instead.

The Importance of Showing Gratitude, Respect & Love to the Divine

For those who believe that there is a Creator God, then it is GOD. For those who do not believe that there is a Creator God, then consider it as Cosmic Energy.  By showing reverence and connecting to the above, you can then experience spiritual or divine energy pouring down through your crown chakra to distribute throughout your whole body    

The Road to Enlightenment

The journey towards enlightenment can be real hard work. Avoid evil, do good and purify the mind is just the basic foundation. Adhering to the precepts, developing the virtues, and purification are important. Knowing the dharma is not enough. You have to do chanting and practice meditating. It is like the holy trinity.

Be patient towards all beings

Not everyone of us is on equal footing in our spiritual journey. Much has to do with past karma and diligent practice. Count yourself lucky to have the right Teachers and the right spiritual schools. Use your wisdom and discernment to choose the right discipline.
