Some people say, don't get yourself caught up in other people's karma. In other words don't interfere when you see something happening, just be a detached observer. But I realized that everything that we are witness to is to some degree, whether it's 1% or 100%, our own karma otherwise we wouldn't be witness to it.

A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut and his beard trimmed. As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation. They talked about so many things and various subjects. When they eventually touched on the subject of God, the barber said: "I don't believe that God exists.""Why do you say that?" asked the customer."Well, you just have to go out in the street to realize

A big tough samurai once went to see a little monk. "Monk," he said in a voice accustomed to instant obedience, "teach me about heaven and hell!"The monk looked up at this mighty warrior and replied with utter distain, "Teach you about heaven and hell? I couldn't teach you about anything. You're dirty. You smell. Your blade is rusty. You're a disgrace, an embarrassment to the samurai class.

Meditation is more an experience than something that you do, more a process than an achievement, more an ongoing inner journey than a destination. Take your time, be patient with yourself and always be ready to go back to spiritual basics, to the true identity of the self (a pure, powerful peaceful soul), which is the foundation of everything.(Excerpt from "In The Light of Meditation" by Mike

Even in ancient times, the mind was understood to be extremely difficult to control. It was said to be like the wind: you could never catch it, or hold it - it went where it wished and no human being could become the master. In other instances, it was said that the mind was like an elephant; extremely powerful but equally gentle and patient, able to do a lot of work for its master. However, when
