Svaha Spirit Series ~ A Precious Human Life

Every now and then you meet someone who changes your attitude just even slightly. I met a beautiful woman with a warm spirit at a little shop in Lonsdale Quay. There were Tibetan Singing Bowls, tapestries and prayer beads, just what I was looking for. I was thrilled to purchase my first set of Mala Beads to do a Japa Meditation. She was just what I needed that day. We stood intimately in her shop talking and when I left she handed me a packet of incense as a gift. I also couldn’t part with a card that had this verse was on it. Enjoy your day everyone! Svaha ~

A PRECIOUS HUMAN LIFE

“EVERYDAY, THINK AS YOU WAKE UP.

TODAY I AM FORTUNATE TO HAVE WOKEN UP,

I AM ALIVE, I HAVE A PRECIOUS HUMAN LIFE,

I AM NOT GOING TO WASTE IT,

I AM GOING TO USE

ALL MY ENERGIES TO DEVELOP MYSELF,

TO EXPAND MY HEART OUT TO OTHERS,

TO ACHIEVE ENLIGHTENMENT FOR

THE BENEFIT OF ALL BEINGS,

I AM GOING TO HAVE KIND

THOUGHTS TOWARDS OTHER,

I AM NOT GOING TO GET ANGRY,

OR THINK BADLY ABOUT OTHERS

I AM GOING TO BENEFIT OTHERS

AS MUCH AS I CAN”

…H.H The XIV th Dalai Lama
