Coalesced around nucleus

11.09.09

Only then will this journey end, and will your soul end its time as this particular incarnation.

The lake will then become just water again. The nucleus that held the soul together need no longer be maintained, for it has been satisfied. Therefore, the Life Current that coalesced around this nucleus is loosed from the chain that bound it to the soul. Once free, it goes back to its original condition of absolute freedom.

No one knows how long this freedom will last. The time of freedom, from another point of view, could be the time before the Life Current is called forth again to come together around another seed of hope and give shape to another soul about to embark on a new journey. It is getting ready to dream a new dream. Just as our bodies decay and provide material for new life, Life Current is recycled continuously to serve the needs of the soul. This process is happening naturally without waiting for someone to attach a label or meaning to it. Put in human terms, we could call it an act of sacrifice and highest love, for it willingly gives up absolute freedom to help one seed of hope to come to fruition and be realized.

Carelessness and continuing habit

11.07.09

Say you headed east for a long time and have come far. Your trip, your steps so far, are recorded in your brain and reflected in the actual position in which you are standing now. This is a fact and has nothing to do with whether you believe in karma or not. The more important thing is where do you go from here? Is there a reason for you to walk in the same direction as you have? Yes, if you know that this is the direction in which your hope lies. However, if you walk in the same direction for no particular reason, then you are subjecting yourself to carelessness and continuing habit, which has nothing to do with your karma.

You always can choose your direction. Ask Your Heart and Talk with Your Brain

If your choice requires you to completely change your life, change directions, and leave the comfort and security of the path that you have walked so far, it is natural for hesitation and second thoughts to accompany such a decision. However, as you know already, more calculations and deliberation do not make the choice any easier or wiser. Ultimately, the decision is a one-time choice.

The question to ask is simple: What is it you really want? What are the things that fill your heart with hope and joy? Ask your soul and heart this question. There is no guarantee that your choice is the one that corresponds to that original hope that acted as the seed around which your soul was built. However, if you don’t ask your soul, where else would you direct the question? If not to your heart, then where?

Everyone eventually experiences of death

11.01.09

Who among us six billion strong, has experienced death? Not a near-death experience, but real death? Of course, everyone eventually experiences death once in her life. But there is yet no way to share that experience with someone else. Have any of you reading these words experienced death? If you answer, “yes,” then wake up, for you are mistaken. You are not dead yet. Generally, we do not understand death. More clearly, our level of understanding about death is at the level of ignorance.

If we don’t know what death is, what are we afraid of? What we are afraid of is not death, but information (or the lack thereof) about death. We are afraid of the accepted interpretation or myths about death. We are actually afraid about our own ignorance about death, and out of this ignorance rises our fear. Our ignorance has a deeper source in our ignorance about life itself: “Who am I?” “Why am I here?” If we knew the meaning of life and were able to judge ourselves as natural phenomena in the cycle of life, our fear about death would have no room to stand in our lives.

Do you still not know what your life’s purpose is, or think that you don’t know? When do you think you will find out? If you don’t know your life’s purpose, who do you think is more qualified to know? If you don’t know, no one, not even God, will know. Then how do you find the answer to the question that not even God knows? There is only one way: choice.

For Your Peacefulness

10.30.09

If you are willing to go deeply enough into your practice, you may come to some epiphanies about the world and your place in it, as this group of stories demonstrates. Connecting to energy greater than your own personal energy, you too will be able to see the big picture of your life and gain a better sense of meaning and purpose. Take your practice time as a precious moment with yourself. Get to know who you are and where you fit in the grand scheme of the universe.

Healthy Information

Brain Wave Vibration seems to allow people to take a deeper look at themselves and the things holding them back. These people were all able to transcend information about themselves, gaining the ability to step forward in life.

The biggest change that happened to me is I ran completely out of the limiting information that used to confine me. When I ran out of negative information, I sensed that something had changed in my brain. Since then, whenever I encounter a knotty problem, I try to get an answer through Brain Wave Vibration.

Psychologically exhausting job

10.30.09

Being a police officer is perhaps one of the most stressful jobs around. This is the story of one who was able to find emotional stability despite his difficult and psychologically exhausting job.

I am a cop. My workplace is the police station, where all sorts of conflicts between people happen. The environment is always discordant. When I get tired, my facial expression becomes just like my workplace. And then I feel even worse when I spit out words of frustration with a stern face.

The most stressful moments at my work are when I am misunderstood by people while I am trying to calm them down and make peace. Sometimes they insult me without any reason, which I take personally. Most of the time, I just let it go. But there are moments when I cannot take it anymore. On days like that, I cannot rest well, even after I get off work. All the negativity and the hostile words linger in my head. I guess it is an occupational hazard. I thought I would become seriously ill if I kept going on like that.

Even before I learned Brain Wave Vibration, I started shaking my head left and right after I interrogated people. I think my neck and shoulders were trying to revive them-selves of all that stress and stiffness. One day, a friend of mine introduced me to Brain Wave Vibration at a Dahn Yoga Center, and I could easily follow all the motions, as they were similar to the ones I used to do.
