So much problems and headache hovering round the mind of everyone each day. You need to find a way and solution to solve them. A student told me that she was going to put all her problems and mess-up thoughts under a pillow and slept over them.
This is also a good method of settling down the pool of your mind. But what I will do , I will list them out one by one. I will erase the problems that can not be solved away. The rest of them, I will place them in accordingly to their importance and urgent need.
Then I will look around for resources or information, friends that could help me to solve them. And please don't ask God or buddha to help you. But you can ask the angels or the dharma protectors to give you some ideas how to solve your problems while you are sitting down in silence. This method does help sometimes. I tend to use this method because the guru or teacher in me will always give me a solution.
Hence you can see or realise how important is it to sit in silence for twenty minutes everyday!

About one and half year ago, one fb friend told me that his brother was taking drug and asked me how to help his brother. I told him to make a search to his ancestors, father's and mother's side. Soon he came back with an answer. True enough one of his ancestors had indulged in taking drug.So I asked him to do puja, an offering the spirit and asked him to go away and don't cling on to his brother. After the puja, strange thing happened. His brother suddenly wanted to go the rehabilitated Home to kick away the habit and wanted to turn a new leaf.
Recently a student of mine told me that his young nephew was involved in taking drug. He did a search and also discovered that one of his ancestors was a drug taker. So he needed to do a puja to his ancestor and at the same time, cut him from meeting his friends who are taking drug and his mother must help him to change to a new school.
Please take it a ( two cents story ). And I have no power nor can I help anyone. I can only give suggestion. God or Buddha is great to come in and let a hand on these two occasions.

I always feel that I am coming to this world to collect debts or to pay my debts and out this I learn many lessons for my progress.
Take for an example some children hate their parents and gamble away their money. They use their money for unwholesome means. Yet the parents suffer in sudden.
Whereas some other children treated their parents very well and make sure they have sufficent food and proper lodging. They spend time with their parents and even bring them out for holidays.
Take for another example, some men ill-treated the wives who still love the men a lot and some men try very hard to please their wives and yet their wives still go out to casino to gamble away their money.
There are many such examples in life. So sometimes we need to bite the bullet should we encounter such incident that has happened to us. Pay your debts and free yourselves.
Do good beget goodness. I am also paying my debts all the while. I told my students that I am coming to this world to pay my debts to them and they all laughed. ( 2 cents joke )
