I have heard about the effect that causes by a butterfly which just flap its wings. The vibrational energy that sent out by the flapping of its wings will reach the north pole or south pole, causing a part of the iceberg to melt. Similarly when we send love and loving-kind to any one, the effect will be as strong. The one who has recieved the energy will be pleasant and nice for the whole day. Try it out.

The planets rotate in the their own orbits accordingly. They keep on rotating round and round and come back to their starting points again and then they start to rotate on their paths again. Likewise, if we can generously give to and share with the needy and poor without expecting of any return, the returns still come back to you according to the Law of nature. The good will return to you in many folds just like the rotation of the planets

How and why do we walk on a spiritual path?
The main purpose is to cultivate wisdom and compassion and get rid of our undesirable bad habits in speech, thinking and action. To sentence a criminal to jail, the judge had to find out the intention of his committment in crime. Hence we have to scrutinize our speech, thought or action before we committe to it. Our conscience will be our judge to decide whether we are right or wrong in the process of our spiritual development and not God, or Buddha. Therefore, develop mindfulness and awareness will make us a mastery of present living to overcome all kinds of difficulties and unpleasant circumstances. So we are the master of our life and destiny.

By mindfulness of Buddha we do not seek to be free from sickness. If the body were without sickness, then craving and desires would easily arise.
In dealing with the world we do not seek to have no diffculities. If the world were without difficulities, then arrogance and sloth would surely arise.

Those who gained by power and influence,
Are like flowers stuck in a vase or jar;
As their roots are not planted,
They will fade and wilt in no time at all.

Whenthe true mind is bright and shiny,
You will have fair weather even in a dark room.
When your thoughts are dark and gloomy,
Evil demons will be born even under a bright sun.
