Seek Ye the Kingdom of God; and All These Things Shall Be Added Unto You

Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.   Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.   Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake. Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets.   But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.   Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.   Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven. My late father and mother once told me that we need to live responsibly in this earth, God held us accountable for

Awareness, Mindfulness, Loving Kindness, and Honesty.

Mean what you think or speak, otherwise it will create a dissonance. Cognitive dissonance bring discomfort, anxiety, and it can be damaging. However, it's in some degree good for the mental health, as long as you deal with it. Deal with the root, not just the symptom. Do not patch it up or bury it with the scriptures nor the entertainments. I love God but not really the religion, lets spread the love without being boxed by religions, social economic status, politics, geography, ethnicity, and anything that divide us as brother and sister. People often hide behind religion and make themselves looks good or feels good, we also condone or condemn people and ourselves with religion.

Let's bring out our humanity and build up the good habits . Religion and technology can numb our way of think. W

Heart of a Child

But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.   Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein. Mark 10:14‭-‬15  And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.   Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.   And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. Matthew 18:3‭-‬5 Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me. Mark 9:37 As a child it easier to have faith and surrender to God; believe that God keeps all His promises. However adults struggling to keep their faith, because of our need for control. God give me a heart of a

Joshu Mu - Transcending Duality

His "MU" was a blow aimed at breaking or untying the attachment even at the teaching itself; the essence is non-attachment. All human troubles and sufferings, without exception, are due to attachment. Even attachment to the idea of non-attachment is the attachment. It transcends the relative world and gains the free and independent world of satori. . . Our life is always attached to the relative: the "is" and the "is not," "good" and "bad," "right" and "wrong". But life itself constantly changing: the condition of society changes, right and wrong changes. Every situation is different according to the time and place. Static concepts are not appropriate to life, but the concepts like faith, hope, and love are; because they grow and evolve.
