A Fine Mind

A Fine Mind

The mind should be fine.

When the mind is unclean,

it is not fine but coarse,

it is a muddle of this and that.

A coarse mind has many conflicts; 

to have many conflicts means that 

life is difficult.

Happiness, wealth, and fame are only for a fine mind.

There is only unhappiness for one with a coarse mind.

A person whose mind is unclean

has many ups and downs of what is good and what is bad.

A fine mind has no such undulations, 

and anything can be contained in that mind.

One with a fine mind is a pure-hearted person.

One with a fine mind is a person whose mind is wide like the sea.

One with a fine mind can accept everything.

He has the mind of Truth,

and only the mind of Truth is a fine mind.

Thank You, Life

Thank You, Life

I am grateful for the gift of being alive — for the breath that moves through me and the consciousness that allows me to witness this moment.

I am grateful for my mind, the sacred space where thought and awareness meet. It is the most powerful tool I have been given — a reflection of the infinite intelligence that flows through all things.

I am grateful for my health, for the body that carries my soul, for the home that shelters me, for the food that nourishes me, and for the clothes that comfort me.

I am grateful for my family, for the love that surrounds me, and for all the kind souls who walk beside me — those who help me grow, and even those who challenge me. Both light and shadow are my teachers.

I give thanks for every experience — for the moments of peace and for the moments of struggle — for each one is shaping me into who I am meant to become. Life is always teaching, always guiding.

I have learned that the universe owes me nothing, yet gives me everything I need to awaken. I am responsible for my choices, and I release blame — toward others or myself. Everything unfolds as it must, and within that unfolding, I find peace.

When things don’t turn out as I wish, I am grateful still — for the lesson within the outcome. Every result is the reflection of the energy, effort, and time I have given. If I wish for more, I know it begins within me.

I am grateful to be learning how to work with time, how to manage what I have been given, and how to remain thankful for all that life offers — even the parts that seem difficult.

Through all these lessons, I have discovered gratitude as the highest form of wisdom — the key that opens the heart to truth.

And as I continue on this path, I understand that true completeness is not yet within me, but something I am growing toward. Wholeness comes when I find harmony within myself — when the noise of the ego dissolves, and my mind aligns with the infinite mind of the universe. Only then will I become one with Truth itself — not separate from creation, but the living expression of it.

*One of the meditators shared his gratitude during an intensive meditation session.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined our Intensive Meditation Session on the public holiday! ❤️

We know how tempting it is to just rest and relax on a day off. That's why we are so incredibly grateful that you chose to spend your precious holiday time with us, working on your inner peace and focus.

It was a truly deep and meaningful start to the day. Your commitment made the session very special.

We hope you feel refreshed, clear, and ready for a peaceful rest of your day!

Death

Death

Death is 

the disappearance of an existent image.

Death is

the end of activity; 

the end of sustaining an image.

Death is

the end of an image's life.

Death is 

to disappear from the world according to condition.

Plants are born of their own accord 

and die of their own accord.

Animals, too, are born of their own accord 

and die of their own accord.

All come from one 

and return to one.

This "one" is the Universe; 

it is the eternal Truth.

The whole of creation is one, 

and this one is 

the eternal and everlasting foundation of all creations 

and their progenitor.

GRC Fun Run: 10K Active Meditation and Friendship

GRC Fun Run: 10K Active Meditation and Friendship🏃‍♀️🧘‍♂️

What a day at the GRC Fun Run! This morning wasn't just about covering the 10Km distance; it was a powerful practice of active meditation. 

We woke up early, met at the beautiful new location, Connexion, Koh Pich, and decided to run not just with our legs, but with our full, positive presence.

For all four of us, the run became a way to reset the mind. Each step was a moment of mindfulness—focusing on our breath, the rhythmic sound of our feet hitting the ground, and the simple joy of moving our bodies in the fresh morning air. 

It’s amazing how meditating while running can clear your thoughts and leave you feeling centered and calm. The physical challenge melts away, and you find yourself in the flow, truly present.

The joy was doubled because we did it together! Sharing that focus, that effort, and those final happy strides to the finish line was incredible. 

The run was fantastic, and our homemade picnic breakfast afterward was the absolute best! 🧺😋 We were so happy eating and chatting that we totally forgot one crucial thing: a group photo! 🤦‍♀️

We were having too much fun being present in the moment and enjoying the food to stop and take a proper picture of our little crew. It's the one small regret of the day, but it just means the memory is extra real.

Even without group photos, the feeling of running those miles and sharing a happy, healthy Sunday with great friends is the best treasure. Happiness is doing things together! ❤️

This is what life is about: health, community, and finding happiness in the simple, shared moments. We are so happy when we are together!
