Inner Practice: Your Future Depends on Now

Human beings are so predictable. Human beings are also so wise. Because our ancestors have left behind so many systems of knowledge and methods to inform and forewarn us of potential life trajectory for each one of us. Not for the sake of giving in to being washed along the rapids of life, but to develop the awareness to recognize the dangers lurking ahead or opportunities awaiting and take the necessary actions just so that the sufferings of life is minimized, if not diminished. As the Buddha alluded to in the second noble truth, we are the cause of our own discontent. Hence we are also the cause of our happiness.

People often asked. Can I predict life?

The answer is yes and no.

I can see the potentials but ultimately and more importantly you are the key to your life.

I have been doing predictions for all of you all the time. With my pulse taking, readings and many other methods in my consultation. And caution you of potentials especially in your health aspects. But whether or not your life will turn out as predicted will depend on whether you take or don’t take the actions as advised. Your destiny is always in your hands.

Within Traditional Chinese Medicine exists solutions to enhance or diminish predictions. Because the main ideology of Traditional Chinese Medicine is preventive in nature, not reactive. So you do it and benefit from it before anything happens to you. It is similar to the analogy of well digging. TCM digs the well way before you are thirsty, not when you are already dying of thirst.

It can appear to be boring and pointless for many, who may think that it is a waste of time to go for TCM treatments and take herbs when they are in the pink of health.

Well, life has its ups and downs.

I can only say that one day you will be grateful for what you did when the days are peaceful.
