This is my morning and evening prayer. You can join me to say it, please do so.:
" May all sentient beings free from suffering and the causes of suffering.
May all sentient beings free from sickness and the causes of sickness.
May they be happy, have food to eat, have a shelter to live in and have enough money to spend."

I was just thinking what is most importance of our living here. Everyone of us are so busy daily rushing here and there to make end meet and to fulfill our obligation to our dear ones and to finish every task completely everyday. Our routin...
e can dull and make us numb and at time we lose our sense of direction. The pressure acting on us is seemed to be overwhelming. We always are thinking one day, we are going to leave our routine for a while and do some travellings to recharge ourselves. The travel makes us feel worse as we have to go the airport two hours before time for the check in and after reaching the destination has spent long hours to get ourselves out of the long waiting queue before we could reach the hotel. Coming home from the travel doesnot help us to recharge but make us feel more exhausted.
At last I began to realise no matter where are and what we are engaging at the moment, we must come back to our breathing. We need to be awared of our in and out breath. Only then that we are fully comprehended our presence of living in this world. All the rest things are not important

One day my master was talking to his closed disciple and asked him why he needed to shop around for more masters.
His student replied," Master, you are so simple in your way of living and you give very simple teachings to me and you have n...
o power to help me to become rich. Other masters from outside are so powerful and rich and they have so many followers. And some of their students struck lotteries after following their masters for a while and now they are driving big cars. And their teachings are so profound that many of their students have difficulty to understand them. But I think these teachings must be good because not many of them could understand them."
" You are wrong. My method is to build a bridge to link you into your real master inside your heart and you will obtain your final liberation. Whereas those powerful masters who build the highways which lead them to no where. Of course you still have a choice to remain with me or go out to look for a better master."
( 2 cents opinion)
