That’s the thing about life lessons. They keep repeating until we learn. And sometimes we think we’ve learnt but the lesson reappears for one final test. Does this resonate with you?

Once a middle aged man prayed to the Buddha, kneeling at the altar, tears flowing from his eyes.
“Why am I always so broke. Everyone I know is holidaying in exotic locations, carrying the latest phones, driving swanky cars, wearing trendy clothes. And look at me, slogging in this 9-5 job, paying bills and more bills feeling hated by everyone. Why?”
After a brief pause he heard a voice coming deep from his heart.
“Because you don’t know how to give”
“I barely have any money left at the end of the month! I can’t afford lavish parties and presents! What can I give?”
“You can give your smile to someone who’s having a hard day. You can give your strength to someone who’s struggling with a heavy shopping bag. You can give compassion to someone who is suffering. You can give your support to someone who’s down on confidence. You can give a hug to your ageing mother. You can give your time to volunteer for a cause you believe in. You can give applause to someone else. You can give cold water to a thirsty soul while driving to work. There’s a lot you can give”
“But what do I get in return”
This time there was silence. And a strange joyous, fulfilling feeling engulfed his heart melting away his misery. The man understood.
May the Vesak /Buddh Purnima/Flower Moon and today’s rare Lunar Eclipse bring you peace and happiness.

Happy Teacher’s Day:) Today is Teachers Day in India. A day when students bring presents and cards for their teachers and honour them with words of gratitude and appreciation. And the teachers take the day off to watch a movie with their colleagues or just go off to celebrate while the senior students become teacher substitutes, realising just how hard their job is. And with time these students grow up to understand that there can be so many kinds of teachers on our journey. And each one, be it a formal school teacher, or a tutor, or a parent, a child, a friend, an experience, enriches us our world and our awareness of it. Leaving us with a sense of gratitude.
Thank you all my teachers – I am grateful for all that you have taught me and hope, you continue to show me as I learn from Life.

Sometimes I have to go searching for positive energy and beauty in a world that can sometimes feel and look so ugly.
Sometimes Mother Nature sends me a visitor or shows me a glimpse of her simplicity and her breathtaking beauty.
Reminding me that though it doesn’t seem quite obvious there IS transformation and regeneration taking place. There is still hope for this planet.
Time to trust the process by learning from Nature.
Everything is exactly where it needs to be.
Everything is happening just the way it’s meant to be.
And there is still beauty in this world. Thank God!

A man who had recently opened a shop had a large notice overhead which read FRESH FISH SOLD HERE. Along came a friend and said, “Why have you got ‘HERE’ on the board?” So he cut out the word ‘HERE’. Then another friend came along and said, “‘SOLD’? Of course it is sold. You are not giving it away, are you?” So out came the word ‘SOLD’.
A third came along and said, “‘FRESH FISH’? It has to be fresh. Who will buy stale fish from you? Cut out the word FRESH.”
The shopkeeper obliged. Now only the word ‘FISH’ remained on the board when a fourth man arrived and said, “‘FISH’? Fancy having that up! You can smell it a mile away.” The shopkeeper erased this last word on the board.
A fifth man arrived and said, “What’s the idea of hanging a blank board over the shop?” The shopkeeper removed the board.
A sixth man came on the scene and said, “You have opened such a big shop. Can’t you hang a board on it with a notice saying, ‘FRESH FISH SOLD HERE?’”
Now if you go on listening to people you will become more and more confused; that’s how you have become confused. Your confusion is this: that you have been listening to many kinds of people and they are all giving different advice. And I am not saying that they are not well-wishers; they are well-wishers, but not very conscious well-wishers, otherwise they would not give you advice. They would give you an insight, not advice. They would not tell you what to do and what not to do. They would help you to become more aware so that you can see yourself what has to be done and what has not to be done.

“I can’t understand how on earth I am healing when I’m in so much pain” the student asked her Teacher.
With a stern expression and a deep husky voice the white haired Teacher answered.
“First it hurts you then it heals you”
“What is it?” she clenched her hands as a wave of pain gripped her.
“Old karma, repressed beliefs, trauma, fears. Everything you’ve buried in you for centuries. Don’t hold on to the pain memory. Let it go.”
“But what if the next pain hurts even more”
“Don’t let the fear of future pain paralyse you. You’ve survived this. You’ll survive the rest”
Teacher dusted his desk meticulously while the student pondered.

Danke nochmal Eckhart Tolle for reminding me to return to the present moment:)
“As soon as you honor the present moment, all unhappiness and struggle dissolve, and life begins to flow with joy and ease. When you act out the present-moment awareness, whatever you do becomes imbued with a sense of quality, care, and love – even the most simple action.”
“Watch any plant or animal and let it teach you acceptance of what is, surrender to the Now.
Let it teach you Being.
Let it teach you integrity — which means to be one, to be yourself, to be real.
Let it teach you how to live and how to die, and how not to make living and dying into a problem.” Eckhart Tolle

When we were kids my Mother believed whatever significant happened on the 1st of January would recur the whole year through. Initially Dad would laugh at her words but one year we did fly on the 1st of January, and guess what, we travelled a lot that year. Another year unexpected house guests came on New Year’s Day and you can guess just what happened in the following 12 months. Her theory was proved right year after year with examples.
Soon Dad became a believer.
Each 1st of January, he would insist we write down our resolutions for the year ahead and if that wasn’t drudgery for a 9 year old, he also made it a point for us to study a bit on 1st of January, believing thats what we’d do the whole year long! While Mom ensured we did housework with her. On Dad’s part he worked and he cleared and organised the papers and bills. Something they both still do.
Today when I look back at our family traditions, I realise I have imbibed quite a few of them on every New Year. My teenager will agree as he shuffles to his books with that sullen bored look I must have had at his age, my husband will skip the carbs. And I sit down to write to wish all my readers a Happy Peaceful Productive 2020. Sharing with you what I have learnt.
What rituals and traditions do you practice on New Years Day? What would you like your future generations to learn from your Elders?
