The purpose of life

真的被我说中了!In my earlier blog, I mentioned about various kind of mediation in the market right? Do you still recall?

Yesterday, one of my friends came to me. She knows I am learning yoga, relaxation technique and mediation. So she asked me is there any one day course on mediation or relaxation technique.

Then I tell her, mediation is a whole life thing / even a few lifes things. It is not just a 1 day course can settle everything. So I propose a 4 lesson classes to her. 4 classes of Metta mediation, on every Sunday, and the timing are about 1.5hrs for each class. Actually, if total up, is just only 6hrs course. And I propose another 10 continous course for her.

And yet her answer is....... huh..... sorry I can’t commit so many days. I need to do this, I need to do that....... no lah, I can’t. If there is a 1 day course and I can do my mental cleaning that will be good. I can't sleep at night, so I need to relax my mind..... I didn't want to think about the movie in mind.... but it just automatically appear....... and so on and so for.

Then I ask her:"can I meet up with you and talk to you personally." and she said:"I don't have 心事 leh!" We are communicating through MSN..... so what she means is she don't feel a need to talk to me on her insomia issue.

And I was like...... *dae*......Huh! Do you mean that you want to clean your mental problems and yet you don’t want to commit in courses? You are asking for a helping hand, but you don't rise out your hands? You are seeking for doctors and yet refusing to eat the medicine?

I was like ...... *dae*.....*dae*......*dae*........ What you really want in your life? Do you know?

This world is really like what I have mentioned in earlier blog, everybody want things to be in instant.......quick, quick and more quick........ but yet don’t know what they want in life; Don’t know what they need in life; Don’t know what they learn in life.

It doesn't means that I know everything I want, need and learn in life..... but at least I already understand the path of "the purpose of life". At least I am still putting effort in it.

But that is the nature of beings...... start from don't know. From there if they continuously don't give up, finally, they will realize more inner self and that will be the beginning of "The purpose of life".

Actually, in mind I know who I can recommend her to. I have another friend so call herself as a "healer"...... she do guided meditation to heal the patient.......... but to me, she definitly is not the right teacher.

But after a while, I remember what my teacher Jason said:”some of the teachers are served as transistion, some are introduction, some of blinds but good heart, some are really evils. When the time is right, one shall be leaded to the right teacher or techniques which open the gate of inner kingdom.”

So I am just a tool for her........ whether did I connect her to her right teacher....... is base on her fate already. Maybe this connection is her way of planting the meditation seeds into her life. Or maybe she don't even want to meet up with this "healer" too!

May all beings always able to meet the right teachers and friends.......

P/S : I have got the reply from my teacher Jason on below blog, but I decide not to share with others over here. Sorry about it.
