- About Me:
- My name's Linda, and Lindu Pindu is my nickname.
I'd been a zombie for quite a while.. even though I thought I wasn't. I put down here something about not wanting to be subjected to modern slavery (i.e. a job), and I still don't in the long run, but now I'm thinking more like, work-travel-work-travel.
I first realised I am not my brain upon hearing one of Ian Lungold's Maya seminars. Then Alan Watts and Neville Goddard.
I avoided things like "The Secret" and "The Law of Attraction" because they sound hokey. And then, in one of those self-help books that reads like a stream of idiocy, I found one gem: "Assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled." - Neville Goddard. That's the law of assumption. Hooked for life.
I believe in a thing called... insight meditation! Check out the only book on meds you need, Daniel Ingram's Mastering The Core Teachings of the Buddha (free online). It covers just about everything, but most importantly the method that will give you ultimate insight; yes, it's possible. Awakening: It’s not just for dead guys anymore. Who said that? I love that!
The first time I did an intention meditation the electricity went out for 4 hours on my block (true story). I got so scared I went downstairs clutching my pillow and groping my way towards the safety of the living room ^^
- Season:
- Season 1
- Starting Date:
- January 7, 2010
- Intentions & Goals:
- Man, why is it so hard to actually write these down? :)
Spiritual Goals (vague to specific>>)
- resolve shadow conflicts
- uproot deep-seated fears
- keep an open heart
- decide on living in the country/ a different country/ as opposed to living in the city- a huge source of discontentment for me
- reveal the kid in me (the self-conscious drama queen) to others without fear or shame
- find the best morning affirmations for me
- make a vision board
- do a Judge-Your-Neighbour worksheet every time I feel negative
- I love my mom for being who she is and not listening to me. I want to listen to her. I respect her for having her own way. (changed after I did a Byron Katie worksheet, from --- not fight my mom and find Buddhist parables / koans to give her as an illuminating example, rather than give her my opinion which she rejects by default)
- seek out events where I can meet like-minded people
- apply my business ideas, or at least find out if they're applicable
- Practices:
- Vision Board, Blogging, Reading, Meditation, Take 100% responsibility for my life

One of my goals for this year was to go to Japan during what I think is the loveliest time of year, April, when the cherry blossoms are out and put any manmade ornament to shame. Obviously, it was not meant to be.
On the flip side I am soon going to dot the i's and cross the t's in a contract. For a job. A 6-month job that was made for me. I feel it came to me at the right time. I sent the company my CV and things moved extremely fast from there- they liked my "energy" (their words…
ContinueThree Actions I carry with me

Sometimes I wonder why I read as much as I do, or listen to audiobooks or whatever... when true knowledge is something you only experience yourself, independently of any teaching. But then I read a commentary on the Anapanasati* Sutta. Someone else here may have issues/confusion re: meditation so this paragraph might help:
"Buddha taught us three kinds of actions while meditating or…

"So, to understand the innumerable problems that each one of us has, is it not essential that there be self-knowledge? And that is one of the most difficult things, self-awareness— which does not mean an isolation, a withdrawal. Obviously, to know oneself is essential; but to know oneself does not imply a withdrawal from relationship.…
ContinueA different kind of burnout
Posted on January 21, 2011 at 7:30pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
Burnout would be defined as a state of exhaustion from too much stress from a particular situation. I’m not exactly stressed or frustrated. I’m starting to feel new feelings (the not-so-hot kind), that I can’t exactly name.
All this week I’ve been strict with myself getting up before sunrise, doing my meds and my yoga, and more recently, chanting, yes! The Lotus Sutra chant of the Nichiren Buddhist sect ->…
