Your Experiences: Curiosity, Chakra Clearing and a Phone Call
At the time of the incident, I was living in London and couldn't get a job and didn't have any friends. One day, I rushed out of a tube station to meet my boyfriend. I was late and waited around the entrance in the vain hope that he would be there or come back to find me. He didn’t, but a tweed-jacketed Indian man did.

Your Experiences: An Unusual Meeting with an Unusual Message
When I think back, my imagination puts us somewhere about half a football field out on the frozen lake when the rider on a bike appeared. Hauling ass across the snow-dusted ice, it was an older kid. We could tell right away by his size.

How to Actualise Your New Years Resolution - Tips
So you've written down your New Years Resolution - now what?
At first, it may seem like your goal is very different from what your life looks like right now. This difference will require some sort of adjustment, for instance, in the way you see yourself and also some form of external change.
A good way to commence is to study whatever you can find about the topic of your goal. Then gather what is needed to clothe yourself in that guise. I describe it as 'a guise', because before you have actualised your New Years Resolution it will feel foreign to you - not like something real. But once you begin to proceed down this path, new experiences will come you way that will act as stepping stones towards your goal.
Note: These new experiences need to be accepted as part of the process towards gaining what 'it is' that you asked for.
Let me explain. You may face trials that could seem insurmountable and gifts that confuse you because they don't look like something you would have wanted. This is where you need to exercise a bit of trust and faith, that you can achieve what you set out to achieve.
Have fun with this and try not to take it too seriously. Good luck!

Learning How To Relax is the Best Way to Deal With Daily Stress
Learning how to relax is essential if you have a lot on your plate. After all, when you're feeling overwhelmed, it can be difficult to remain positive and motivated throughout the day.
The best time to use this relaxation technique is before you get up in the morning.
A Relaxation Technique for the Whole Body As you're lying in bed move your attention to your toes. Say, "I relax my toes." Then move your attention to your feet and say, "I relax my feet." Move your attention to your legs and say, "I relax my legs."
As you go along, feel the relaxation ascend in your body.
Continue on to all other areas, until you have relaxed all parts of your body. If you suffer from a particular stress-related physical ailment such as poor digestion, include your digestion organs as something you ask to relax.
When you reach your head specifically ask that your eyes, nose, mouth, ears and facial muscles relax. You may not realise just how much stress can show in your face!
When you have finished, take a moment to appreciate the difference in the way you feel, eg. you may feel somehow lighter.

His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Youth Forum Brisbane, Australia
The Dalai Lama spoke at a Youth Forum in Brisbane on the 15th June, 2011.
Some notes from the talk: - His Holiness described how he likes being around young people, because it makes him feel young.
- If the young people of today (who are in their 20's and 30's) make a serious sustained effort towards world peace, he believes that we can have it in the latter part of the 21st Century. The 21st Century would be the Century of Compassion.
- Young people need to appreciate their mother because you were born from her and she took care of your needs when you were young.
- A mother needs to give a baby lots of physical contact and affection for it to thrive (especially in the first few weeks of life). When a child receives lots of love, they will be happy and it will have an effect for the rest of their life.
- A happy family has compassion (not anger) in it and lots of affection.
- Money is important, but only in so far as it can provide for your physical needs, it does not provide mental and emotional nourishment.
- Advises that Indigenous people keep their original name, to draw strength and identity from it.
- Wealthy people should contribute to the education of children from neighbouring areas who cannot afford it.
- When a young person is stressed they can be educated in compassion and meditation in a few days to see an improvement.
- Problems can seem smaller if you look at them from a distance.

New Years Prayer, Quote from Amma for New Years Eve Wishes
Here is a New Years Prayer to help start the year on a positive note:
"We are entering the New Year with hearts filled with hope. Let us sincerely pray that this year, unlike in the past, we don't have to witness any more wars, innocent people being killed due to terrorism or natural disasters. Collective prayers can make some difference. This is my dream. This is my prayer. Love is the answer, love is... the way." Mata Amritanandamayi Devi
If you're not sure how to do this - then the following Sanskrit Prayer is something you could consider repeating:
Om Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu Lokah Samasthah Sukhino Bhavantu Lokah Samasthah Sukhino Bhavantu Om Shanti Shanti Shantihi.
English Translation: May all the beings in the universe be happy. Om, peace, peace, peace.
On a similar note, if you are the kind of person who tends to feel helpless after hearing a bad news story on TV or in the newspaper, then you can quietly repeat the above as a way to help anyone who is suffering. One of the positive side effects is gaining peace-of-mind yourself.
