Battery,go figure.
Today received good news and some not expected from my stabbing incident.But with faith and Mindfulness everything just smoothed out.

To all or none,

Last evening while searching the definition of the 4 th precect on Access to Insight ,I stumbled on a text, explaining the
event to lead to the schism in Buddhism between Theravada and Mahayana.By respect for all ,I shall not reproduce this text.which is pretty hard.

Learning everyday,simple buddhist

To all or none,

Told you recently everyday ,I meet someone interested in Buddhism.
This time is a gorgeous woman who went to Cambodia,Thailand ,and
Laos.What she did not like is the superficial aspect of her trip.I am to bring her a copy of my Gist of Buddhism
.

As I awoke ,I started being poetic (sic) .One part of the text written by Max Hermann "The Desiderata" that is always in my prayers saying :You are well my son ,like the sun and the trees you are part of the Universe, i started adding ,the snow,the cold ,the Wind my breath .
You see i am so into Oneness with the Universe that is how I woke up ,cheerful ,happy, and...poetic

May every moment of your day be a moment of Oneness with the Universe

son of the Universe

To all or none

The power of prayer,and good breathing.

I get awaken by the phone and I have to run from my room to my computor room.IAM NOT SUPPOSED TO RUN.It is the secretary of a doctor that want's to give me a rendez-vous for my operation in the shoulder and knees.
I am huffing and puffing ,I can't find the file.In it are 2 dvd of my MRI's and original reports of the technician that took the
MRI,s.My heart is pomping ,THEN I start praying the Universe and stopped running around the apt.like a hampster,and I start Deep breaths,to stop me from going to hyperventilation.

I have often spoken of the brain dammages I have,I took Nitro for my heart and breathed deeply again.

I am stopped in the middle of the apt.,and my eyes fall on a nice attachee case ,that someone had given to me.

I had prepared that case with everything concerning my operations
but DID NOT REMEMBER.I see it and it all comes back.Everything is there.
Living with a damaged brain is quite somrthing ,put papers everywhere to remember things.

All and all ,I would have found it eventually but my body and brain would have suffered.
So this mornings lesson for loong is:BREATHING RIGHT and prayers.

Felt like sharing.Just onre physical part BREATHING and one spiritual part PRAying.

I had quite a RUSH for a Wake up call. So remember,BREATHE well
lisa Erickson told me so often .

May your day be a relaxed day.I am still shaking.

a definition of the word.Please advise me.

To all or none,

MARA; Subject not often spoken of. However it is in your Mind,
in the liquid you drink ,the smoke you inhale,the meat you eat,the white lie you say,,the candy bar you steal,false déclarations on your income tax,the woman you coveth whom you know is married, hatred ,anger, false speech ,and hundreds of others.

Mara is the name for Evil in Budddhism .

A few hours ago a 30 years old waitress told me she would undress
for me anytime,BUT SHE IS MARRIED.Mara,is also in the search of power ,these are all ennemies of goodness.

One always has the CHOICE to succomb to Mara,
Mara sent his 3 daughters to tempt Siddhartha Gauthama before he became the Buddha,

YOU CHOOSE.To that Young girl ,I did as if she had not spoken to me.The fourth precept,is not something I recite every nite or when I go to sleep,it is a sacred vow to me.

Last nite around 1 oclock ,I wrote a few posts about my sufferings,
physical not mental nor spiritual.My body is decaying at an alarming rate.Might have to d
go through 3 new operations .My body ,is tired,tired of the suffering.
Mind, helps me go through everything with almost a smile all the time.
Not complaining ,just saying.
