Highlights

How can we transform our work in spiritual practice? When watch movies or listening to music, how can we still focus inwardly to avoid being lost in the fleeting pleasure of this ephemeral world? How can we always remember God in every aspect of life? The legend goes that, Shiva of India had condensed the 84,000 spiritual ways of Sakyamuni Buddha into 112 ways of concentration. Master said that, under any circumstances, we can always find a way to recapture our mind. That was why Shiva taught His disciples so many methods to rein in their monkey mind. If applied properly, this can help us to diligently maintain concentration on our divine God Nature at any time.
