I remembered few years back i attended a course at Bintan resort Indonesia about the power and understanding the use of mind.
Lecturer: Where is your mind? (Alot point to their head)
Lecturer: No that's your brain.
Lecturer: Try again, where is your mind? (Few points to their chest)
Lecturer: No that's your heart!
So where is our mind? It took us half a day of lecture to understand it. But the most important thing that i have learnt is not where our mind is but is about using our mind to handle changes in life.
Life is a constant change and are we able to take it positively and are we aware of it? If you are able to take it then it's progress, if you can't, then it's stress. Changes are external, meaning you can have a choice to handle it anyway you like. However you must be aware of it in the first place. If you don't handle life well, you will be faced with all the shit life throws at you.
We were suppose to catch 2 frogs to carry out an experiment on awareness of changes of our surounding but thunder storm prevented us. The facilitator does it for us instead, poor fella, brave through the weather.
This is how the experiment was carried out, 2 glass container of same size, same volume of water was heated, 1 with the little froggy swimming inside, the other just water being heated.
5 mins later, the froggy inside container is still swimming happily unaware that the water temprature has increased. The lecturer throw another froggy into the other container and it immediately jumps out of the luke warm water. Not to harm any life, we stopped the experiment. If we were to carry on, the 1st poor froggy will be cooked unawared.
My thought: Many of us are aware of major changes that surrounds us but few have the ability to be aware of the minor little ones which amount to a BIG one. Constantly watch out for changes and reacts to it, or else you will be "cook" totally unawared.
