Moon Temple Written by : Reiki Sanctuary Date : Friday, July 29, 2011

You have no idea how much I love all the people that I know.  They know even less.


I tell myself, for today, I shall live for my Being.  For my consciousness.  For my awareness.  For my light.  I am born alone and I shall leave this world alone too.   Aloneness is our very nature though we are not fully aware of it.

I tell my breath, for today, to live as though it is its last.  Yesterday is the past.  It has passed.  Today, I shall live in the now.  For today needs to be created for all the other days ahead to follow.

I tell my body, for today, to heighten all its senses to enjoy the beauty of Mother Earth.  The Gaia of all the wondrous things around me.  Oh, what a beautiful world it will be. 

I tell my mind, for today, just to focus on the dominant thought and not to fret on small things.  Whatever I make, whatever I do, I am in-charge.  I am responsible for my joy, for my peace and for all the blessings into everything possible.

I tell my soul, for today, to reach out to God.  To be one with Him, to be Him.  For in Him, I will be able to feel my soul.  For in Him, I shall embrace the highest good that it flows easily back to me.  For in Him, nothing can disturb the calm and peace of my soul, and of the world I live in.

I yearn to be intimate with my soul.  To feel the light of consciousness.  To feel the light growing and glowing.  That it shall not fade, not even for the slightest moment.  The more I can be one with it, i know I will be able to feel the highest intensity of tranquility, of silence - the infinite ultimate energy.

For today, I  must admit failure.  I must admit how fragile my Being has been.  I must admit on the imperfections to be truly human.  I have been constantly filled with unnecessary tension based on judgments about the past and the expectations about the future.

I fail to fill my heart with constant joy.  I fail to occupy my mind with persistent peace.  I fail in extending love.  I fail in providing faithful and loyal strength.  I fail to live in the now.  I fail to keep things steady.  I fail to let the light stays permanent.  The less I live in the past and of the future, the more I shall be able to see the brilliance of the present.

I have to be a Nowist.
To learn about living in the Now-ness.
Would not it be wonderful if nothing else matters?

Am I really grateful for all the things that have come in contact with my soul?  Am I really grateful for being who I am?  For being awake.  For being aware.  For being conscious.  I am alive.  I am life.  I let life live me.

I am so thankful to where my life has brought me today.  I am so thankful for the journey.  I am so thankful for the days, the weeks, the months and the years.  There is nothing that I would want to change them all.  All the experiences and insights are just necessary.  They are designed As Is.  They begin with being present to what is and without any self deception.  I am so thankful for the fall and rise.

I am so thankful for having a loving family, for having my parents, for having my sisters.  I am so thankful for the spirit, the energy, the virtues.  I am so thankful to be a part of the big thing.

I am so thankful for knowing all my friends, near and far.  Here and before.  I am so thankful to Alan, my spiritual master.  I am so thankful to Pi, a spiritual friend.  I am so thankful to Amina, a spiritual comrade.  I am so thankful to Franky, my spiritual soulmate.

I am so thankful to the beautiful skies, through thick and thin, that bring many more friends closer.  There are Molly, Ann, Peg, Greg, Norin, Jianhong .. and the many many more.  These are the people that have come into my live, though some may have quickly go.  They leave their footprints in my heart.  And, I am never, ever the same.

I am so grateful for the Ayam Penyet that I had for dinner earlier in the week.  I am so grateful for the bed, for the vacuum cleaner, for the fibre broadband.  I am so grateful for Reiki Sanctuary.  I am so grateful that I do with the house cleaning.  I am so grateful for the lift upgrading program.

I am blessed that I can walk fine and think fine.  I am blessed that I can choose to separate my thoughts.  I am blessed that I can focus.  That I am aware.  That I am connected to infinite intelligence.  I am blessed that I know I am more than my mind.  I am blessed I am Being.  I am Source.

Love is a never ending stream.  And so is my unwanted sorrow.  Each energy fans the flame of my breath.  In each moment of my consciousness.  In each ray of light deeps into the moon temple of my emotions.

How it evolves with each waking moment.  In my present.  In my body.  I feel it through my breath flowing in and out, effortlessly filling my lungs, my veins, my brain.  I can feel its life within me.  I am connected to these energies.  I am connected to its Being.  I am connected to its Source.

For today, I shall empower a magnifying healing to both my outer and inner worlds.  I shall empower to take, and gain, control of my breath.  I shall be committed to live life with joy, abundance and compassion.  I should be connected to my ways of sitting, standing, sleeping, speaking and acting.

It is only through a constant deep felt appreciation of the value and miracle of being itself that my live will take on real meaning.  That my relationship with others will become imbued with intelligence and compassion.  That I will find effective solutions to the ever growing problems I am facing.

For today, I should shine on the moon temple towards the direction of the sun.  There is light to everything, even in darkness.  There is joy in peace.  There is peace in joy.  There is happiness in sorrow.  There is sorrow in happiness.

We just know that it is all essential to life.  It breathes an immense importance not only to physical life, but to the very meaning of what we are and what we can become.

I should shine on reality, on spirituality and on consciousness.  I can only see the light when I allow the breath of life to manifest fully through me and others.  This is the beginning of real transformation, both for myself and for the world around me.

And it all begins with awareness of the breath.  It begins with the moon temple of our body as a sacred light, a doorway to the source of all being.  With each awakening, there comes a radical new understanding.  It shall not just be the understanding that the immensity of Truth can never be comprehended by the mind.  It is the understanding that beyond all our senses, however good or bad we may judge them to be, we are Source.

For today, I pray to do the right things knowing that life can end anytime.  If today is my last day, I am praying that everyone close knows that I love them.  That every souls that have crossed into my path are loved.

The Celebration Of Life - Part Three Written by : Reiki Sanctuary Date : Wednesday, October 20, 2010

Happy Anniversary, Reiki Sanctuary!

Two years on, and on this date, we sit back to give our deepest gratitude to such a beautiful memorable day.  It is the day where a sanctuary makes its way into our life.  It has been a place where strength is built and hope is constantly teaching us as how to live through our journey onwards, restoring us to faith.  It is a place to envelope us in caring and love.

Reiki Sanctuary alters us.  She awakens us.  Our souls begin to notice beauty where we never noticed it before.  Our hearts learn to feel compassion.  Our paths shift.  As we make more prayers today, we seek for encouragement to live up to the potential that life offers.

We pray for the presence of the Universe, of God, in our lives.  It is a prayer, not for a request, but for our ultimate experience.  It is for a sense of being connected, of being part of something larger than ourselves.  It is our prayer towards an attempt to be in the presence of God.  And, letting our soul to dance towards our higher consciousness and awareness.

Every day, we are given the opportunity to remake ourselves and to remake the world we live in.  No matter what these opportunities are meant to be, we embrace with its potential to grow and learn and change.  No matter what the days may offer, we strive for its potential to give all that we have to offer.

 Today, let us to remember that Reiki Sanctuary is a gift, that our health is a blessing.  Teach us to see all the beauty of life that we so often ignore and to listen to the silent longing of our own soul.  Fill our hearts with compassion and open our hearts to love.

We are celebrating her second year with the presence of a grand water fountain.  It is our way of thanking her.  Water assumes many forms and characteristics.  It is essential to our existence.  The sound of water brings peace and serenity to her energies and vibrations.

The Dancing Couple (Infinity) Water Fountain

Reiki Sanctuary is our blessed home, for the last two years and for the many years ahead.  Whether we would want to realize it or not, we are walking our soul journey here.  We may be unconscious about it but at some point, we would be ready to find much grandeur meaning and purpose in our lives.  It would then that we awaken to the inner need to express the love that is the soul within.  That we develop and heal our consciousness and to discover our soul purpose.

Reiki Sanctuary is about trust, intuition, self-healing, creativity, expression, purpose and universal laws.  As my neighbour would say, let the pictures (and video) speak of it all:

A quote from Mother Teresa, "If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other".  Today, and from time to time, we pray that Reiki Sanctuary shall be D place for us to think and to heal.  It shall be a sanctuary where the soulful beauty of thoughts, of actions and wisdom bless us and enable us to bless our lives in return.

Shall this day remind us that we have led a blessed life.  That we should focus on the wonderful things going on in our life.  Tomorrow, whether it is good or not so good, will still be there.  We just have to welcome every opportunities and take the challenges to be our lifetime lesson for our highest good.

Thank You, Reiki Sanctuary.  You are cared and loved.

The Big Day Written by : Reiki Sanctuary Date : Saturday, March 15, 2008

Our search for a new house ended today.  It will be a new beginning, a new settlement.  It ends months of unsettled decisions.

The opportunity that was bestowed upon us made us to review our future strategy.  20 years ago, we bought our first property and it had served us well.  We didn't expect to move out.  We always felt that we could live here a little longer - at least for the next few years till one of us reach 55.  Then, it would  be the time where we ought to plan for our retirement.

We built our nest in Hertford.  It would always be a place that we shall remember very dearly and a place that we MUST, as we moved ahead, looked back with gratitude.  We grew up there - we were hardly 30 then.  There were many stories, many events, many twists and turns, many laughters and sorrows too, many guests, many parties .. - above all, we managed to keep each other company for bad and for good.  It was a place where human foundation was built on.

Hertford, we will always love you.


You were a blessed sanctuary for us.  With your shelter, together we grew - where each day filled with life lessons.  You were the abundance behind our peace and joy.
