Tuesday morning.. I am back in the 9 to 6 "work work work till you are fed-up and get in the jam to go home" routine. Last night was so mentally exhausted that I slept from 7pm till 8am this morning. Yes, it happened again! I guess I will see more of that soon with my workload. There will be more work to come as I might have to travel in mid April to Thang Long again. It's a nice city, but I am not going there to have a holiday :( !
Read this from Tsem Article:
Dear friends, we see how ants work so hard to drag crumbs, dig and build ant holes, jostle to mate with female and then maybe ‘securely’ die. In between, someone may step on the anthill, it rains and myriads of other incidences to arise to take away the hard earned security. Our life’s like that but just longer and the gods, even longer. But no matter where, there is NO security in samsara. As long as we continue to work towards that we will become disillusioned, depressed and tumble down no matter how ‘high’ we get. No matter how much we build towards that it will be constantly threatened, taken away, or we lose it in the end. Our bad karma and its results is the pursuit of that. And our sufferings arises in the strong habituated belief that THERE IS SECURITY.It's sad that I have to succumb to a lifestyle that will build this "false sense of security" at the moment. I need to clear my debt & loans & pay the bills :(
I really need to work harder in samsara (at the moment) and also dharma :)
*listening to manjushri mantra now in the office while working*
May all who are stuck in the world of multi-tasking, endless meetings, "battling" behind their cluttered desk in front of a PC... I offer every happiness and benefit to all of you. Ok, I am not that "holy" to take upon myself all your harmful actions and suffering yet :P
But I do pity you who do not have broadband to surf the internet and 'legally' able to use IM to chat in the office, plus Harman Kardon speakers to listen to your favourite tunes at work :P (Ok, I should not show off or they will be taken away from me :P)
For those who are 'blessed' with speakers/headphone at work, do listen to Imee here:
IMM Music. Hope it will temporarily relieve you from the mundane office atmosphere with all the harmful gossips and politics ! (yucks!)
May every slave worker in the corporate offices get promoted, get an increment, get a good 'social' life, able to have lunch NOT with their colleagues, able to escape the jams through shortcuts and reach home safely everyday to hit the sack after watching their favourite programme on Astro!
Ok gotta get back to work or I will lose even this false sense of security!
