My life is my message

Wow..kehidupan yang jungkir balik.... yup to express my life now. Coz of the busy life that challenges me... I forgot all the sadhana that I need to conduct...Really pull my self back to the track.
OOT (Out of Track)
1. I know that Suraj is some sort of "daring" boy. I could be prohibited him to push Vicky but I slipped :(
2. I was so tired on Sat, should turn-on my alarm.
3. Don't waste the energy, I wish Ne Murti didn't remind about that :(

PR (Positive Reinforcement)
1. Wake up early, do the prayer every morning not the 2 mins one but relax one.
2. U can't make everybody happy ""The person who always cares for everyone and tries to keep them happy ..is always the most loneliest person in the world" @Java's wall.

Start to love my job

http://beautifulsunmontessori.blogspot.com/
I got this pic from the website above. I felt that is a very interesting description of life :)

This position requires me to think and talk wisely. In education field, especially when you are in the management. Your mind must always be up-to-date coz you are not dealing with the academic but the human resource as well.

Eventhough I consider my self to be the new bird. I have to ..nope MUST really learn and avoid the same mistakes.

Bhagavan, I need Your Hand to guide me...
Thank You...

Sleep late

So happy can write in this late night. SO peaceful accompany by radiosai. I didn't do this for quite long time. Yups it's kind of routine wake up early morning, work for 10 hours, have dinner with Biggy, go home and sleep..

Miss my old style which was so much time at the late night...

Life in school is getting tougher, but everytime I faced a challenge, I remembered what Pak Phoa said yesterday during the Theosophy class:
"Happiness can come when you do manage to success in doing something that is impossible in the first place"

That statement keeps wailing in my ears..

Tempe obat sakit maag


Maag banyak dialami oleh masyarakat yang jika tidak tertangani dengan baik bisa menjadi kronis. Tapi ternyata ada cara mudah untuk mengatasinya yaitu dengan mengonsumsi tempe."Tempe bisa mengatasi penyakit maag, benar itu," ujar dr Samuel Oentoro, MS, SpGK, selaku ahli gizi klinik FKUI-RSCM.

dr Samuel menuturkan hal ini karena tempe mengandung protein yang bagus dan senyawa anti inflamasi (anti peradangan). Protein yang terkandung di dalam tempe sudah siap untuk diserap tubuh karena ia sudah terlebih dahulu dicerna oleh kapang (jamur) yang ada di tempe.

"Biasanya protein utuh harus dicerna terlebih dahulu menjadi partikel-partikel yang lebih kecil agar mudah diserap, tapi pada tempe protein tersebut sudah dicerna oleh kapang," ungkapnya.

Kapang (jamur) yang dihasilkan oleh ragi tempe bisa mengubah protein kompleks kacang kedelai karena adanya perubahan-perubahan kimia pada protein, karbohidrat dan juga lemak. Serta kulit kedelai yang keras menjadi lebih lembek sehingga memudahkan perut untuk mencerna.

Selain itu tempe juga diketahui bisa memperbaiki saluran pencernaan yang rusak serta mengatasi gangguan lambung yang kebanyakan diderita oleh pasien maag. Hal ini karena tempe bisa memberikan kenyamanan di lambung.

"Tempe merupakan pangan fungsional atau makanan yang dikonsumsi sehari-hari, karenanya tidak ada batasan asupan atau dosis," ujar dokter yang juga berpraktik di Semanggi Spesialist Clinic.

Salah satu penyebab sakit maag adalah akibat pola hidup yang tidak sehat seperti meninggalkan sarapan, pola makan yang tidak teratur atau sering telat serta faktor stres akibat pekerjaan dan jalanan yang macet.

Faktor lainnya yang bisa menyebabkan penyakit maag adalah adanya bakteri Helicobacter pylori yang dalam jangka waktu panjang bisa merusak sel-sel di dalam jaringan mukus lambung.

"Fungsi tempe untuk menangkap Helicobacter pylori secara teori bisa saja, tapi secara penelitian belum ada. Namun penelitian mengenai tempe ini sudah banyak dilakukan," imbuhnya.

Bagaimana mengonsumsinya?

Ada sebagian orang yang percaya, khasiat tempe akan muncul jika dimakan mentah. Boleh-boleh saja memakan tempe mentah tapi jika ingin lebih steril lebih bagus jika dikukus, direbus atau digoreng dengan sedikit minyak.

Bahan baku utama tempe adalah kedelai yang mana proteinnya yang tinggi di dalamnya yang memberikan khasiat kepada tubuh.

Menurut Food and Drugs Administration AS, setiap hari tubuh perlu mengonsumsi 25 gram protein dari kedelai yang setara dengan 125 gram tempe.

Building Ur Hope


I watched Mario Teguh "Golden Ways" today then I got some messages to share with you :
Today's topic is "Jalur Kehebatan"

"Kalau kita melakukan kebaikan, maka kebaikan akan mencarikan jalan terbaik dalam hidup kita, karena apa?? Karena sponsor dari kebaikan itu sendiri adalah T U H A N"
Jadi ketika Beliau mensponsor segala perbuatan baik yang kita lakukan maka semua sarana dan prasarana akan dipenuhi diantaranya tenaga dan pengharapan yang berlimpah"

"Sering2lah berbicara kepada Tuhan karena anda tidak akan menjadi orang yang sama setelah keluar dari pembicaraan itu "

Someone askd him "How you felt strong when u'r down" thn he answerd
1) BERANI GAGAL BESAR
2) Ikhlaskan gagal kalau anda digagalkan oleh Tuhan
"Tugas dari langit turun ke orang yang nilainya tinggi" (tidak dapat dibeli uang harta berapa pun)

"Orang malas selalu mengantuk dan orang malas adalah orang yang tidak menggunakan logikanya, sudah tau banyak tugas yang banyak, tetapi tetap pengen tidur (lari dari realitas).
Org yg malas biasanya suka menunda dan menganggap dirinya biasa saja (tidak berharga)
bagaimana menghadapi rasa malas....
TANGGUNG JAWABMU MEMPERBAIKI KEHIDUPAN SO TAKE CHARGE!

"Jumlah hari ataupun bertambahnya usia tidak akan menuakan jiwa tetapi HILANGNYA HARAPAN!"

"Berikan pujian untuk org2 disekitar kita, n engkan mendahulukan kebaikan untuk jalan didepan"

Fokuslah pada kebaikan setiap org"

Baba

Since Baba left His physical body on the morning of 24th April 2011 I have been hearing and reading from a number of sources, whether it be newspapers, TV or talk amongst devotees (and some non-devotees) that Baba did not live till 96 as He earlier prophesied.

I would like to put a stop to all this talk and ensure everyone is aware that our Beloved Bhagawan did not go against His word and indeed lived till 96.

We all follow and recognise the Christian calendar in everyday lives, however Baba did not – He followed the lunar calendar (Hindu calendar is lunar based too). We can be sure of this as Baba recently celebrated the sighting of 1000 moons within His lifetime. Therefore, if we do the maths we work His age out as follows;

1. According to the lunar calendar; 1 year = 324 days
2. Baba saw 85 years and 153 days (i.e. up to 24.04.2011) of the Christian calendar; therefore He saw an equivalent of (85 x 365) + 153 = 31178 days of the Christian calendar
3. If we convert this to the lunar calendar we see; 31178 / 324 = 96.2 years

Fellow devotees, please be sure to send this page, calculation to all who question Baba’s integrity and prophecies.

New Life

I have been vacuum for quite a long time for my writing session. Today I'm not feeling well but I have a strong motivation to journal again!

May 3rd. I'm so glad and blissful that I have passed April. It was such a "nano-nano" month!

Struggled to buy the house, headache of preparation for LG, Swami's Samadhi.... My emotion is jumbled up and down.

I almost gave up..

Like usual there always this voice.. the one that makes me stand still... My inner voice

I ended April with Love and Gratitude Celebration, like what people called it. I feel Gratitude for everything :)

Nowadays, my brain is stuck, i keep everything in my mind.. Can't let it flow to these texts haizzz

Works have taken all my creativity...

Time has changed, I need to enjoy my life....Biggy

I have been slaved by all my work-load, be a master mind what Swami said. I’m the master. I must take control. ^^

Letter of Seema M. Dewan

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Sai Ram,

This is His Divine Sankalpa. He had told me last Saturday at 4 o'clock that He was exerting His Divine Sankalpa from then. At that time , I interpreted it that He will be fighting the illness and coming back. Now I realize His health fell from that time. I had a darshan of Him on Thursday morning at about 9 AM US time.


As I went towards His chair He was sitting with the strangest expression on His face which I had not seen before. "Look", He said to me, "the Universe is entering Me now". His eyes were shining like a million bulbs. He usually jokes with me as to what I ate and this is the first time He seemed more than serious, I felt a fear in me and dismissed it and told Him, "Swami, You are talking very differently to me today". He then looked at me very softly, and said, "Do you know how much I love you?"



He was reaching toward me at that point when I told Him, "Swami, stop being so serious with me". I think He had left His body then and His heart was just made to be kept alive until Sunday. He then came to me on Thursday aftrenoon, completely different. He was like He looked when He was seventeen, and He said to me, "How old do I look?" I laughed and said, "Very young, Swami". And He said, "Younger than you?". The kids were sitting by Me at that time and could not not see Him like I did. He asked them to put all their three heads to His lap (to them it was the sofa) and He stroked their heads. He then asked my son, Karan, "Who were Lord Krishna's three best freinds?" Karan replied, "Swami, I think it was Sudama, Arjuna, and Uddhava". Swami said, "No,no, not Uddhava, it was Karna". Then He looked at my other son, Krishna and said, "Look, Karna and Krishna are best friends".


In our interview 1999, He asked the same question "What is the relation between Karna and Krishna?" I had told Him "I do not know, Swami". He had said, in a very soft tone, "I will tell you later". And He did, after so many years, in our very own home. He then looked at my son, Krishna, and said, "Who is Krishna's best friend?", and my son Krishna replied, "My brother, Swami, Karan". Swami looked at him in a naughty, scolding manner, and said, "Hahh...Lord Krishna does not have friends, he is always a friend to others". He then asked them to perform arati. He returned again at about 6 o'clock when my husband returned home from work. He asked my husband to do His arati.


He came to me on Friday morning and showed me a very disturbing vision. Swami was standing tall almost from the Earth to the sky. There was panic everywhere and people were running in all directions. There were gusts of wind and dust swirling around Swami. Swami was dark blue-black in His complexion. His eyes were closed and He was standing tall. Suddenly, His eyes did not open but in the area of His eyes a bright light shone. The light spread to all the quarters where the devotees were running in panic. Suddenly the dusty wind was only orbiting around Swami, and it seemed like a thick black cloud of dust. All I could see was the bright light from His eyes and the dust around Him. That to me now seems the vision of death of His body that He tried to show me. He also showed me the panic among His devotees and the reassuring Divine Light that He would always protect them.


He then came to me Saturday morning with the message, "A Miracle...to Come". He gave it to me early in the morning but did not allow me to share it until 9 am. He promised me there was a Golden Era yet to come. Of couurse, I thought at that point that He will re-enter the body. Swami never explains things clearly but makes sure His work gets done. He told me at that point that these three messages, "For Your Sake Only", "Everything is Possible", and "A Miracle...to Come" would be the last regarding His health, and that they would always be a comforting tool in the hands of His devotees. He also instructed me to ask Ted and Jody Henry to make a video of His third message.


He had told me in December of 2010, second week of December that His health was not good and that He was getting silent attacks that no one knew of. I starting observing a Friday fast for His health. Strangely enough, my health started deteriorating from that time with kidney infection and a sudden back injury. In the third week of January He came to me on Friday morning and ordered me to stop my fast. He said to me, "You will go if you continue this". I was stubborn and I told Him, while He stood in my kitchen, "Swami, I am going to do it, and that's that". He looked at me and said, "Then I will have to make you hungry". Sure enough, in a moment I was ravaging food down. I felt a sudden drop in my blood sugar that I had never felt before and I was forced to eat.


From that date, I observed only the worship of His feet and gave up the fast.

I could see in "Sai Baba of India" that His darshans were becoming later in the evening. He did not give me any indication of His health after that. In fact whenever I asked Him He said to me, "But I am Myself coming to you all the time". He had instructed Me to go to the Shirdi Sai Baba temple in Pittsburgh to conduct Abhishekam of His statue and for my sons, Karan , Krishna and Shiv to sing bhajans. He also told me to break nine coconuts at the temple. The children have practiced their bhajans all evening without knowing the tomorrow to come.


I will surely carry out His wish, and even though it is going to be extremely hard for the kids they are going to bring comfort to all the devotees coming tomorrow. We have to be strong. Like Swami told me in many interviews, "I don't like when you cry. If you cry I will not talk to you any more". Of course, I have held back all my tears for I want to obey His command today. He has left with me the treasures of several books which I will share with the world. He has instructed me to take Sai Darshan 2 (which has just been completed last week) in my August trip this year.


He has promised that He will continue to speak to me until my last breath. I will continue to share all His words with you. I know many of you will receive Him now in the omniscience, and even though we feel that His work has been left incomplete all of a sudden He has always said to me, He alone protects, He alone knows and He alone shall do. We have to all stand up with courage fully knowing that He is witnessing these moments and is choosing amongst us the heros to come. Please be a hero...To me He will always be there for each one of His children at all times. Please have faith in that and He will communicate with you. We are now to await the third Avatar of Sai that is Prema Sai that has already begun the course of His work in the cosmos. The new era will bring The Golden Age as Swami had promised each of us.


Let us use each moment from now on to spread the message of love and truth that our Beloved Baba lived for. My love to all. Bhagwan is with you right now and has asked me to write this. Please feel free to share this.

Thanking you,

My humble pranams at the Divine Lotus Feet of Bhagwan,

seema m. dewan

Flood


Medan was wet!!! Water is everywhere.. it's so excessive :(

When I dropped Amma to airport, I passed this Mongonsidi street. People were tring to save their things and I could see water get in to their houses. I still can think nothing to be worry, it will be backwashed soon. I was WRONG!! The volume of water was increasing during the day, at certain point it reached 2 metres.

I called Pina, I felt terrible can't do anything. If anyone know the way to Kampung Baru from Stanford please call me asap


It is true that there is no day without raining in Medan, I have intuition it is the sign...


People kill brutally, Nuclear leakage in Japan, Flooding in almost every province in Indonesia, war in Libya, some others that out of my view.. + Swami's sickness :(


Time To Pray, guys. Nothing wrong with kneel down and send the love to the world. Hope it'll recover soon.

Havasu the water fall

Havasu, begitulah nama sebuah air terjun yang berada di wilayah Havasupai Indian Reservation yang masih berada di dalam area Grand Kanyon National Park ini.

Air terjun yang berada di wialayah liar ini terkenal dengan keindahanya. Airnya yang jernih makin menambah pesona air terjun ini. Sehingga tak heran jika air terjun ini banyak dikunjungi wisatawan asing dan domestik.


Walau begitu, ternyata sulit sekali untuk mencapai area air terjun ini. Untuk menuju ke pusat air terjunnya, pengunjung harus berjalan menuju ke post camp yang jauhnya sekitar 10 km dari loket.

Setelah itu pengunjung masih harus mendaki tebing yang cukup tinggi, barulah pengunjung bisa menikmati keindahan air terjun Havasu.

Di sana, pengunjung bisa berenang, makan dan minum dengan minuman yang dijual di kedai Havasu, atau menginap di penginapan alam dekat air terjun Havasu.

Selain itu, pengunjung juga bisa menikmati 4 air terjun lainya di sekitar Havasupai Indian Reservation, yaitu Navajo, Supai, Mooney, dan Beaver yang tak kalah indah dengan Air terjun Havasu.

8 Gua Yang Eksotik , Peninggalan Peradaban Tinggi Manusia

1. Petra, Jordan

Kota Petra di Yordania dikenal sebagai setting dari film, Indiana Jones dan Perang Salib Terakhir. Ini juga salah satu dari 7 keajaiban dunia yang baru, dan sangat mudah untuk melihat mengapa arsitektur termasuk yang paling canggih yang pernah dilihat. Dibangun ke dalam lereng Gunung Hor, Petra berkembang selama zaman Romawi, tetapi tidak diketahui oleh dunia barat sampai 1812 ketika ditemukan oleh penjelajah Swiss, Johann Ludwig Burckhardt. Lebih dari 800 monumen individu dapat dilihat di Petra, termasuk makam,tempat mandi, ruang pemakaman dan kuil.

2. Al-Hijr, Saudi Arabia


Di antara situs paling terkenal Arab Saudi arsitektur adalah Al Hijr, juga dikenal sebagai Madain Saleh. Bagian depan tempat tinggal di Al Hijr telah diukir di gunung batu pasir kadang-kadang di milenium kedua SM. Al Hijr - yang secara harfiah berarti 'tempat berbatu' - diyakini telah dihuni oleh Nabataeans dan Tsamud. Ini fitur sumur air, makam monumental awet, prasasti dan gambar gua.

3. Rock-Hewn Churches of Lalibela, Ethiopia

struktur paling menakjubkan diukir dari batu adalah gereja-gereja Lalibela, Ethiopia. 11 batu dipahat gereja masing-masing telah diukir dari satu blok granit dengan atap yang di permukaan tanah. Abad ke-12 Raja Lalibela ditugaskan gereja-gereja dengan tujuan menciptakan Yerusalem Baru bagi mereka yang tidak bisa membuat ziarah ke kota aslinya. Setiap gereja diciptakan oleh mengukir parit lebar di keempat sisi batu dan kemudian dengan susah payah memahat keluar interior. Yang terbesar di antara mereka berdiri setinggi 40 meter.

4. Abu Simbel Nubian Monuments, Egypt


Empat kolosal patung kuno Mesir Firaun Ramses II penjaga pintu Abu Simbel, sebuah candi dipotong dari tebing batu pasir di atas Sungai Nil. Ditugaskan oleh Ramses sendiri, candi menghadap ke timur sehingga dua kali setahun, sinar matahari mencapai ke dalam tempat kudus terdalam, menerangi patung Ptah, Amun-Re, Ramses II dan Re-Horakhty. Kompleks dipindahkan seluruhnya dari pengaturan aslinya pada tahun 1960 untuk menghindari banjir ketika Danau Nasser telah dibuat.

5. Goa Gajah, Elephant Cave Temple, Bali

Gojah goa, Goa Gajah , merupakan salah satu situs Bali yang paling historis signifikan. Gua tampaknya sebagian hancur oleh bencana alam lama, dan tidak terdeteksi selama berabad-abad sampai sebuah tim arkeolog Belanda menemukannya pada tahun 1923. Pemikiran telah dibangun pada abad ke 11, Goa Gojah fitur patung dipengaruhi oleh Hindu dan Budha dan berisi ruang meditasi rahasia bagi para imam atau pertapa. Dua kolam renang mandi tradisional di luar gua mengandung air dikatakan memiliki sifat magis.

6. Cappadocia Cave Houses, Turkey

Cappadocia adalah salah satu dari 73 provinsi saat Republik Turki, dan memiliki salah satu pemandangan paling aneh dan menarik di dunia. Tanah, batu kerdil fitur formasi batuan tufa 'vulkanik aneh disebut sebagai' Fairy Chimneys 'serta kota-kota bawah tanah kompleks dan bangunan dipotong dari' tufa 'lembut. Banyak dari mereka adalah gereja, dengan kolom dan lengkungan menghias wajah batu dari sepotong dinyatakan alami dari batu.

7. Ancient Rock City of Matera, Italy

Di kota Matera batuan kuno di Italia barat daya, orang tinggal di rumah yang sama persis bahwa nenek moyang mereka tidak 9.000 tahun yang lalu. Matera diciptakan dari jurang berbatu dan gua-gua alam yang banyak di daerah tersebut - disebut 'Sassi di Matera' - adalah rumah pertama dari penduduk Neolitik di wilayah tersebut. Gua menciptakan labirin rumah, dan itu hampir mustahil untuk membedakan formasi batuan alam dari arsitektur kuno. Rumah-rumah tampaknya tumbuh dari batu dengan cara organik, menciptakan sedikit dari objek wisata dari apa yang pada pertengahan abad ke-20 sebuah kota hantu. Matera adalah terutama pengaturan untuk film Mel Gibson "The Passion dari Kristus '.

8. Yungang Grottoes, China

Para Grottoes Yungang dari Datong di propinsi Shanxi Cina terdiri dari 53 gua dan 51.000 patung, dan adalah salah satu contoh China yang paling indah seni gua. Menara raksasa Buddha atas pengunjung yang angin melalui gua melihat banyak patung di dalamnya. Sebagian besar karya seni yang pernah di dalam gua-gua itu dicuri di awal abad 20 dan bangunan candi kayu yang dilindungi sekali gua-gua terbakar habis. Jadi, situs ini sekarang sangat membutuhkan perlindungan dan telah bernama sebuah situs warisan dunia UNESCO.

Ponggal.. pongullu

Today is celebrated as Ponngal day in Tamil’s Calendar. It is an auspicious day especially to all the farmers since this is a thanksgiving day for the nature especially to the Lord Surya that gives its radiance to the survival of human life in the earth. So, every year we will conduct a gratitude ceremony that starts with boiling cow milk until it spills out of the jar and put the rice in it, until they dries and become sweet rice. As one of the culture, you may not boil the milk on the gas stove, it should be boiled with charcoal and wood. Yeah, it really looks like stay in village. I always love ponngal… especially when we see that the milk is spill out. There is a thrilling experience in that. :)

Cow Milkmilk spill out

Something that I learnt is to boil the milk, you need to make sure that you have a good combination between the “stove” and the jar…. The stove may not smaller than the jar, huhuhu like us today, we waited for 3 hours to milk to be boiled hiiihihihi…  and it should be the genuine cow milk not the pack one that is usually being sold in the supermarket ;)

 

Appai (my father’s mother) is guiding us through out the process and sweets are always there. Wade, urende, kesri and some fruits.. Yummy. At the end of the ceremony, appai gave some packs of rice to those people that always help ours.

Inniya Ponngal Nal Valtukal….. ^^Valtukal

Feel gratitude that is the core of this celebration… always do ….

Ping^Pong

Aku sangat berharap keadaan bisa membaik tetapi tidak, kenapa kekuatan mental ini tidak seperti ping pong yang semakin kuat dipukul semakin tinggi melambung.

Kenapa aku bersedih? Apakah karena impian itu belum kucapai, atau karena ku gak mempunyai cukup kemauan?

Tuhan yang omnipresent, Aku bersalah, karena imanku yang lemah...

Ampunilah... Izinkanlah ku tuk memulainya lagi...

Berilah kesempatan, kuingin memperbaiki yang telah hancur berkeping2...

Menjadi satu kesatuan yang utuh, yang kuat seperti ping-pong....
