[ X-BLOG ] See this world thru’ my eyes

Heehee.. I finally finished my 4 Day course on meditation conducted by Ven Sik Kwang Sheng. Ven Sik had teaches us the basic techniques of meditation. Now the rest is up to individual progression. He said if one practice and made progression in meditation that some might experience nice scenery of mountains, some a bright spot of light & some a decay corpse., one need not be afraid but just accept it. I had took up the course in search for a solution to calm myself and to be more aware of my emotion. Thus I would try my best to practice it whenever I can. Meditation had all the benefits to oneself

It’s hard to see me wake up early on Sunday morning. Usually I would sleeping til the Sun baked my butt then I would get out of my cosy bed. Today I brought my family, mum, Bro & his family to participate the “Alms offering to the Sangha” at Kong Meng San Phor Kark See Monastery (See pics 01).

Yesterday I bought a quantity of 88 medication oils, packets of Myojo Vegetarian Instant Noodles & Maggi Instant Vegetarian Porridges (See pics 02). The number 88 represented the total number of ordained ’short-term’ monks. I was told they are going Nepal for 2 weeks for their training. Kudos to them!! It is not going to be an easy but I can see the determination in their eyes in accomplishing their objectives.

As the ceremony starts, the group of new monks were led by Ven. Sik Kwang Sheng. They moved orderly, passing through everyone who had turned up to make alms (See pics 03).

The whole event was filled with lots of energy & blessings. Though my families & myself were sweating but I know it was very fulfilling activity for us that teaches us the virtue of selfless generosity in giving and receiving.
