Bro. Teoh’s Thursday class Dharma sharing

Dear Kalyanamittas,

Below is the drop box link to our last night’s 30.3.2017 Dharma recording for sharing by all. Please do listen to the sharing which is very good. Especially so the part on:-

– Disney Land’s video  of the Adult and Baby birds (lessons learnt);

– Understanding Fear and how to root out Fear completely via meditation?

Notes that accompany the Disney video as attached below:   “Sadhu! – to all for trying. Relatively  Good answers  all round. 1st lesson learnt by the baby bird is fear of the unknown – surprised by the sudden attack by the wave. After that the fear n the phobia which is an evil root (delusion) prevents it from learning because it lack the spiritual faculty of  Saddha or faith. Even the mother bird tried to encourage her she still cant or still very reluctant. But when she attentively saw how the small ‘crabs’ got attacked by the wave and yet survive  like very normal via hiding in the hole they dug. This gives the baby bird the confidence n the understanding to try it in real life.  After that ….. – no more fear then life becomes beautiful n wonderful. Meditation n Dharma cultivation is the same. Attentive observation via mindfulness can bring about understanding.”

Bye! and with metta always,                                                             Teoh

Dear Kalyanamittas,

We are please to inform that our recently concluded March 11th – 19th 2017 annual  9 days Meditation Retreat at Triple Gem (Sam Poh Temple), Brinchang, Cameron Highland was a great success and because of the rather tranquil and beautiful setting, nature’s energy, weather and rather unique and good sharing all yogis who participated were full of joy, have developed much better understanding of the dharma and faith after that.

We were also invited by Bro. Koh Lai Huat and his wife (Mdm Beh) of Mangala Lodge to a very sumptuous lunch at Kampar town before proceeding to visit their Mangala Lodge center near UTAR campus, Kampar.     Later on Bro. Teoh was invited to give a dharma talk title : ‘Managing relationship with people‘ at their Mangala Lodge center.

The relevant photos and recorded talks will be download on this website soon.

Last Sunday’s 42nd lesson of the 6th Patriarch Platform sutra

Dear All Kalyanamittas,

Below is the drop box link to our last Sunday’s (42nd lesson of the 6th Patriarch Platform sutra) recording for sharing by all. Please do listen to the sharing by Sis. Lee and Mindy which are very good especially the latter’s sharing.

Question from Sis. Chin/Mindy is:
Bro Teoh, just now I felt the energy was very strong during the sitting meditation. The energy was like bubbles and hot, it melt into my bubbles (the form). One or two weeks before, I had an experience in my sitting meditation. I felt something soft touched me and I thought it was my daughter. When I opened my eyes, there’s nothing. Then I continued the meditation, my body was repeatedly wrapped with energy and it melt in my body and became clear. During meditation, the mind and body is separate. The mind is calm, but the body is a bit stiff. Sometime I felt the mindfulness is too strong and my heart base is squeezed and not comfortable. Can Brother explain?

Bye! and with metta always,

Teoh
