Money Mantra

OM VASUHARE SVAHA 108X

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9VAeluflSY

The most accurate Sanskrit form of this Buddhist money mantra is OM VASUDHARE SVAHA (pronounced as OM WA SU DHA REI SWA HA).

On several occasions, the All-Compassionate Buddha shared with us practices that will enhance our wealth, so that His students may pursue their spiritual goals with less physical distraction.

One of the wealth deities introduced by the Buddha is the bodhisattva, Vasudhara.

Vasudhara, whose name means 'stream of treasure' in Sanskrit, is mentioned in the Mahayana sutra, the Vasudhara Dharani (also known as the Inquiry of the Layman Sucandra).

In recent years, 2 well-respected Chinese Mahayana monks, Venerable Hui Lyu (慧律) and Venerable Hai Tao (海涛) have propagated the Vasudhara Dharani and taught the money mantra in it.

In Tibetan Buddhism, Vasudhara (known as Norgyun or Norgyunma in Tibet) is regarded as a primary 'Wealth Deity'. The Kagyu, Sakya, and Gelug schools include Vasudhara in their spiritual practices and perform Vasudhara-related pujas mainly for lay believers.

Vasudhara's popularity, however, peaks in Nepal where she has a strong following among the Newars of the Kathmandu Valley, and is thus a central figure in Newar Buddhism. She is given the name Shiskar Apa in the Indian districts of Lahul and Spiti.

For this mantra to be effective, you should:

1. Recite this mantra 800 times the first time
2. Recite it 3 times a day, once in the morning, once in the afternoon and once at night, 108 times each thereafter
3. Maintain a pure mind during recitation

~ Many thanks to Upasaka Guo Bin (果滨) for his wonderful recitation ~

Ha Ha, I hear “what did daddy swear huh?” when I recite this repeatedly.

Oh, what did daddy swear huh?

Hollowed (Pure in heart and mind) is the only thy name.

That’s God will give us all the ways.

And he even put it in his name.

He even swear it all in all.

Good health, good wealth, with beauty in his name.

Together we will build it all.

 Don’t be a fool and get trap in this world game.

Do you hear Dha Rei = Daddy (our heavenly father)? I did.

Thought it fun to share. Love all.  Namaste J

Leadership in Stewardship

Do U know that the highest form of power is not in money but is in,"I am"? "I am" is the art of self-mastery in walking the path of God.

How would you define success?
The Quantities of money, possession, power and influence you have OR The Qualities of money, possession, power and influence you can create?

Quantities
Defines what you done (counting the harvesting of the fruit) It is limited.
Qualities 
Defines who you are (generate manifestation of blessing) It is infinite.


Great Leadership derives from Great Stewardship. Mathew 4:4 Jesus answered, "It is written: 'Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.'" We exercise God's word through stewardship. 


What is embedded inside "I Am" - Matthew 5:3-11
- courage (needed for action)
- curiosity (explore)
- humility (discovery made through mistake)
- sense of humor (feed your soul)
- integrity (focus)
- best effort (doing all with love and beauty)
- compassion (don't neglect your neighbor when too self absorb)
- generosity (don't be stingy)
- friendship (peace with everyone)
- a vicious cycle (turbulence in life)

- capacity building (constantly learning)

- significance (meaningful purpose)

- self revelation (self reflection)

- balance (moderation in all)

- patient (be the victim in order to truly understand)

- patience (perseverance)

- emotion tolerance (good emotion quotient)

- pain tolerance (sacrificial)

Matthew 5:13 "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again?

Matthew 5: 14 " You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.

Matthew 5: 16 In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.

Dear Heavenly Father,

For those who hear, let them have ears

For those who saw, let them have sight.

For those who seek, let them finds.

Are You Fear Struck?

Are You Fear Struck?

You have been Fear Struck if you are one of the following ....
- are terrified
- are lost
- are indecisive
- are deceived

- are being tortured
- are in denial
- are skeptic
- are in principle
- are battling

- OR have "I'm SURE"-confidence that you don't want to hear.

Don't know if you are infected? Read along anyway.

Practically, Fear and Anxiety is the cause of all problems; It's triggers your mind, your heart and creates impulsive action. Therefore, that's why FAITH is so important.

How FAITH can save you. There is a HIGHER POWER, the power that gives you energy, confidence, thoughts, idea, motivation, adrenaline, vision, inspiration, love, happiness, joy, freedom and a lot more. This is also known as the spirits that give you the keys to life.
SO, What is FAITH? Trusting and Believing.
Trust What? Trust that whatever happen, it's for the higher good.
Believe What? Believe that things will fall into place accordingly.
Does that mean sit there and do nothing? NO! I REPEAT, NO! DON'T DO THAT. This is just wasting your life away. Keep your eyes open, do whatever you can, clean, organize, Pray, do something. Clean with your heart, smell the clean and love it. See the organized and feel it. Wash away the dirt and enjoy it. Reconstruct, feel the re-charge; Stretch and relax - lay in bed and feel the comfort, renew physically, mentally and spiritually. Work with beauty and love, Relax with beauty and love. Do everything with beauty and love. Enjoy the moment of getting little things done. Appreciate the spirits that brings you good feeling. Be thankful.
Trusting & Believing is required to establish FAITH.

NOW, Let's talk about Letting Go; and Hand it Over. (Easier said than done)
Please Note: You must first learn to let go before you can move. When we are stoned, we are heavier than a mountain.
 PRAYER CAN HELP; ALL U NEED IS FAITH :) 

HOW TO PRAY?
Sit quietly, Close your eyes, Focus
1) Need a Holy name introduction (Dear God)
2) Talk to God. (tell him what is bothering you, how you feel, what you are looking for, etc.)
3) Thank you God, (be specific, what you are thanking for)
4) Need a Holy name closing (In God, I pray. Amen)
The best way to pray is to be simple and direct.
Novice prayer: use awareness in prayer.
Advance prayer: use holy spirit in your prayer.
Ultimate prayer: sacrificial dedication requires.
Now, Trust and Believe. 
Let Go and Hand it Over to God.
Do little task that make you feel better.
Pay attention, Be aware; Look for God's message; God talk in silence; Witness; Believe; Pay thanks to God. Once you have learned, you will see. It will be testified, not by others but by yourself. The more you witness, the better you become unshakable.

  

Matthew 7:7-8 - (7)"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find;Knock and the door will be open for you (8) for everyone, who ask receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will opened.

Matthew 6: 25 - (25)"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?

2Timothy 1:7 - For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of Self-discipline.

Matthew 7:13-14 - (13)"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. (14) But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

Here's a Song for you:

Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you for letting us understand that when one is in fear, they are as fragile as a dandelion.

They can not be hurry.
They can not load anything.
They can not be reason.
They can not....just can not ....."be".
Let the nine fruit of spirits heal the needs.
Psalm 19 - God Bless, In the name of Jesus I pray, Amen.

Visionary Dream

Cherish Your Dream
Having a dream means designing life as splendidly as possible. There is a great difference in people with a dream and those without in the amount of confidence they have for living their live. Those with the dream are more powerful and inspiring. Among those men and women who have contributed things of great value to the world, none was lacking a great vision. The ambition of a visionary is a very important element. 


Being humble or modest does not mean that one must be still and hide like a bagworm. Humbleness is only called for during times of growth and expansion  and when over-confidence. A brake is there just as a precaution, for it helps in avoiding accidents, and keeps the car from running out of control. If you concentrate on the fear of going to Hell and spend your days praying and saying "Amens," you will not rise to greatness.
You must step on the gas pedal, using the brake and when you are moving too fast, the brake is there for you to slow down so you don't kill others along the ways. If you are advancing positively and confidently towards your goals, remember to check now and then to monitor your course of life. Bravely proceed on full throttle; daring to dream and working towards its realization with humbleness. Don't be too absorb in yourself and forget your surrounding. If you burn your neighbor carelessly; eventually it will come back burning yourself.


Dreaming not only provides a blueprint for life, but also possesses an inherent mysterious power. A dream is a continuous vision in the mind that reaches the guardian and guiding spirit. If you have a clear vision of your goal, it is because you are connected with the holy spirit.  


Indeed, this is a true meaning of self-actualization. May all find their strength and purpose and brings peace, love, life into harmony. Amen.


Dear Father,
Proverb 15:4 "The tongue that brings healing is a tree of life."
In Jesus name I pray, Amen

Power of Love

What is Love?

To love someone, is to find God-nature within them. 

(All human are children of God therefore have a divine nature within)

Though curiously, a person can look like a devil, or an angel.

Depending on your state of mind.

Your children will look like devils

If they tell you, "I hate you".

But if they say, "Thank you", they will be little angels in your eyes.

It is the same between a husband and wife.

Sometimes your spouse may look like a devil

And other times like an angel.

The reason lies in both of you.

The one who realizes this, should try to change first.

Do not hold back love.

If discovering the God-nature (within you), is Awakening.

Then to seek out God-nature (in another) is Love.

Song of prayer: The Power Of Your Love

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eA4narr2wyE

Lord I come to you, let my heart change, renewed.

Flowing from the grace that I found in you.

And Lord, I've come to know the weakness I see in me;

Will be stripped away by the Power of Love.

Hold me close, let your Love surround me

Bring me near, draw me to your side.

And as I wait, I'll rise up like an eagle,

And I will soar with you; you're spirit lead me on,

By the Power of your Love.

Lord unveil my eyes, let me see you face to face.

The knowledge of your love as you live in me.

Lord, renew my mind, as you will unfolds in my life;

In living everyday by the Power of Love.

Hold me close, let your Love surround me

Bring me near, draw me to your side.

And as I wait, I'll rise up like an eagle,

And I will soar with you; you're spirit lead me on,

By the Power of your Love.

Dear Heavenly Father,

You are an awesome God.

Your "Love" is so powerful that it is not easily learn.

You have show us "How".

But we are weak in our soul, please guide us in finding within;

so that we may manifest it with our practice.

Psalm 147:18

In Lord Jesus I prayed, Amen

Higher Awareness

Ha Ha, This have brighten up my day. I think this is funny.
A perfect example of  "Higher Awareness" - seeing vs not seeing.

Once upon a time, there lived a huge turtle. It took him 10 minutes to move his right front leg forward, another 10 minutes to move his left front leg, and 10 minute each for the two hind legs. In fact, it took a total of 40 minutes for him to move even an inch on the ground. One day, while wondering if there was an end to the sandy beach where he lived, he decided to undertake a world expedition. Starting straight ahead at the distant shore, he began to walk with all his might.
Taking 40 minutes to advance a very short distance, he began to measure up the shore line. Being rather intelligent turtle, he decided to leave his footprints along the beach so that he would know where he had already walked. In this way he was sure to avoid walking in the same place twice. But, no matter how far he walked, the shore seemed to stretch endlessly before him.
One sad day, the turtle finally exhausted his energy and died, believing that he must have conquered at least a half of the world. The following day, an island fisherman came by and dragged the turtle to the other side of the island and ate him for lunch. 
Did the man take much time to get to the other side? Not at all. For the fisherman with his healthy stride it was only 10 minute walk. It turned out that the poor turtle was just going in circle around the small island without realizing that the indifferent waves of the Pacific were washing away his footprint. Poor Turtle :(

It's not the speed that is important.
It's not the principle that is important.
It's not the effort that is important.
It's not the result that is important.
"DID YOU SEE WHAT'S GOING ON, THAT IS IMPORTANT!"
A perfect reflection of the human race.

Father,
I thank you for lifting my spirit with this wonderful story.
I really enjoy the story showing me the stupidity in us generated with our highly intelligent mind.
Funny. Love it.

Thanks - In Jesus name I pray, Amen

Walking with God

or Walking with yourself? - did you pay attention? -


Do u feel what I feel when walking the God's journey?
I see lots of ugly and sometime became ugly.  

"One" -Song from U2
             Lyric speaks for itself


Is it getting better? 
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You got someone to blame

You say, one love, one life
When it's one need in the night
One love, we get to share it
Leaves you baby if you don't care for it

Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without

Well it's too late tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One!

Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus?
To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much? More than a lot
You gave me nothin' now it's all I got
We're one but we're not the same
Well we hurt each other then we do it again

You say love is a temple, love a higher law
Love is a temple, love the higher law
You ask me to enter but then you make me crawl
And I can't be holdin' on to what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love, one blood
One life, you got to do what you should
One life, with each other
Sisters, brothers

One life but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One


- The Song "One" by U2


In time of my weak; I loose focus of God and see only myself.
It take a lot more efforts than expected when walking the path of God.
PAIN TOLERANCE, RELEASING FORGIVENESS, UNCONDITIONED LOVE, REFLECTIVE ACTUALIZATION, SPIRITUAL UNDERSTANDING, PROVOKING KINDNESS. (These are not individual entity, but as one) They fold together and work in a certain order simultaneously; and it is our job to do the connection. Pray and recognize what these things are; then, God will gives us grace to the Power of TRUE Love.


Father,
Your lesson are hard to learn.
Jeremiah 23:33 
"The good ones are very good, but the poor ones are so bad they cannot be eaten."
I'm not complaining; Just Venting.


Proverb 1:1-7, Amen
