From Biology to Ecology

 The emergence of widespread news in the US, regarding essential oils being able to cure many diseases, including cancer are reopening old expectations that the actual human problems are a matter of failure to connect. Essential oils that contain the essence of a number of plants help humans to reconnect with nature. This can happen because plants contain a unique blend of energy from the sky (rain, sunlight, air) and combine with the energy from earth like soil complete with all the fertility variations. When this unique and rich combination touches the body, there is a chance that healing can occur.

Beautiful Angels Named Feelings

 In ancient times, people who had too many feelings were often called weak. Some even call it whiny. Conversely, people who can resist and suppress feelings are called strong. Understandably, ancient times. And in this day and age, where the percentage of mentally ill people continues to rise, residents of mental hospitals are rising, the suicide rate is even higher even in super-rich countries, it is worth reflecting on the notion that strong people are those who often suppress feelings. In meditation classes it is often seen, friends who suppress feelings for too long are visited by dangerous diseases such as cancer. Some have even been treated in mental hospitals. Some become drug users. Until often visited by dangerous whispers to commit suicide.

Dancing with The Soul Wound

 “Sabotaged by soul wounds”, that is the dominant characteristic of restless and anxious souls. The growth of the soul is blocked because someone is imprisoned by his/her soul wound. Having been cheated out of large amounts of money, a friend then was very traumatized by the world of commerce. He chooses to live very simply, meanwhile his children grow and require greater living costs. In another case, because of sexual abuse in childhood, a woman decides not to marry and looks at all men with the eye of suspicion. Because his mother died when he was a child, a man looked for a mother in many women. As soon as he saw a woman with maternal looks, he then easily fell in love.

The Altruistic Leader

 In the shamanism, the nature is full of the signs oh light. In the ancient era where religion is not yet known, the elders left the records of sacred teachings in the open nature. The legacy, which shows that the elders had once endowed the teaching of a sustainable and altruistic leadership, can be clearly seen in the land of Java and Bali, even until nowadays. There are four remaining beautiful signs that can be precisely found at the city center in many cities in Java and Bali. First, there is an open broad field. Second, there is a shrine that is built there. Third, there is a soothing old banyan tree nearby. Fourth, it also happened to be the place where the leaders live.

In Bali, that place can be clearly seen in Catur Muka intersections, Denpasar. The open broad field symbolize an invitation for leaders and community leaders, to have a broad mind. Not narrow minded, nor full of prejudiceness. Borrowing the speech of one of the former US presidents: “I was nominated to be a leader by a party, but I was chosen to serve a nation”. In another way of saying, once someone is elected to become a leader, he is no longer a property of his party, but begins to belong to the people he leads. In this era of openness, a small mistake of a leader can be broadly discussed. Yet the great actions of a leader can never be ignored.

Blending Nutrition for the Soul

 After the first world war in the 1940s, milk was a favorite nutrient. Some even call it the most perfect nutrition. Once human history entered the 2000s there were many medical doctors who were very anti-dairy. This can happen because the biorhythms of nature are changing, which require the changing of nutrition as well. The same thing happens with nutrition for the soul. For thousands of years humans have been greatly saved by the concept of God. In the last few decades, there has been a collection of people (not only atheists), who take a distance with the concept of God. One biologist from Oxford University even wrote a best-selling book called God’s Delusion. The concept of God is called human hallucinations.

Transforming Anger Into A Flower

The human body is formed by conflicting materials such as water and fire. So that if someone is not smart enough within the human body, this body can shake the spiritual journey later. A luminous spiritual teacher once told us 2,500 years ago: “A soul that slides down after death is similar to the sand in the Ganges river. But the soul that moves up after death is only a number of grains of sand in one hand”.

And among the amount of fire that is kept inside, the most devastating one is anger. Suppose the president of a super power country is in a state of great anger, in just a matter of minutes this planet earth can be destroyed. For that reason, it will have a huge influence on the spiritual journey later, if humans seriously transform anger into materials of peace. And one of the ways in this case is having a very deep understanding of anger. Here are some roots of anger, as well as the medicine, which are worthy to be reflected.

Levels of anger

The Lost Intelligence

“Every time I see and hear something, why do the more negative thoughts like fear appear first?”, that’s the question of many friends in meditation sessions. To be honest, the question does not only open a secret that someone is missing the answers. The question also opens the secret of the subconscious mind. Very few of the people who are aware that similar to mud which invites the coming of worms, is the subconscious mind which is full of fear will invite the coming of suffering. Like it or not, that is the cycle of times. Human beings keep inviting more suffering through fear.

There are several possibilities that are hidden behind the strong influence of fear. First of all, there is a self-protective mechanism in the brain. Negative thoughts complete with fear and suspicion, are one of the ways of the brain to protect the human body. Secondly, since ancient times life on earth has been indeed full of challenges. The collective memory of that heavy life remains in the human brain. Thirdly, it is difficult to deny that trust among human beings has greatly decreased. In some parts of the world such as Russia, parents have brainwashed children with messages like this: “Don’t trust anyone. Learn only to believe in yourself “.
