The Living Journal - The Four Letter Words.

The living journal is kicking start with the four letter word that matter most.

What's is the four interesting four letter words ???? Take a look at the following four letter words now and perhaps it may look like what we always associated with.

The four letter words D.P.M.S

D - Dreams that we pursuing 
All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them. Famously quoted by Walt Disney.
We are all beaten over the head that we should always pursue our dreams, always follow our passions, always turn reality into what we believe will make us happy. We only live once, so why not live to the fullness and chase your dreams and let the spirit and your visions to live on.

P - Physically 
It's your own life and you need to take care on your own instead of depending on others. In today's rat race, it is impossible avoid not to have stress. Your body is hard-wired to react to stress in ways meant to protect you against threats from predators and aggressors. Once a perceived threat has passed, our hormone levels return to normal. You must watch out as you are responsible of your own risk and if you are physically not taking care of.

M - Mentally 
You need to be strong. Every time you fall, take it in a positive way. Manage your stress and pressure well. Prioritise what you need to do. In many ways, our mental health is more important than our physical health. If you are mentally weak, that will pull you down.

S - Spiritually
Is up to each individual and his or her own faith. It's what you believe in from a young age, your parents' influence and also what you have encountered in your life. For me, I believe in the harmony of one's body , soul, and mind.  Invest in your soul, for example through meditation. As I am a Buddhist, I go to the monastery, listen the Dharma, talk to the holy monks and follow the Buddha teachings. The Buddha give me wisdom and direction in life. Religion brings us calmness an peace of mind. At times physical strength is not enough, you need some power in your spiritual life. I want to be a better person and faith help me direct me down this path.

To find a balance of our life, choose your job wisely and confidently that can bring you a stable income for your kids and love ones for a better tomorrow DPMS here.

Who Can Get Paid for their Opinion?

Anyone who spends any amount of time on the internet sees all kinds of ads about paid surveys that want to know if you want to get paid for your opinion. I bet you have ignored most of them because you think they are total bull and probably some scam to rip off your identity or gain access to your financial records. You would be right about some of those companies. However, there are also a lot of legitimate companies that offer to let you get paid for your opinions.

Get started with Paid-Survey-at-Home

Almost all companies that make and sell consumer products hire marketing research firms to create and conduct consumer surveys so they can find out what people want to buy. They also want to know what features in their product are important to their customers. 

A good example of why companies conduct market research is the current AT&T and Verizon cell phone advertising war. Verizon extols the fact that they have the largest network with near universal coverage (important if you live in a very rural area) and AT&T is pushing the fact that you can talk on the phone and surf the internet at the same time (something most people would like to be able to do). 

AT&T most likely learned that people wanted to talk and surf at the same time from one of the market research surveys it routinely conducts to find out what consumers want.

How can you get paid for your opinions?

Join a paid survey website like us here at 

Paid-Survey-at-Home and follow the instructions. Most will have you fill out a detailed member profile that will be used to see if you qualify for a survey. After all, you wouldn’t pay someone who doesn’t own a cell phone to take a survey about how people use their cell phones, would you?. 

How do you get paid?

You will be paid either by a mailed paper check or the funds will be deposited directly into your PayPal account.

Get started with Paid-Survey-at-Home

Thank you for making Paid-Survey-at-Home the trusted connection between people and research.

NO RISK INVOLVED

I really want you to be confident and comfortable when you sign up with "Paid Surveys at Home." So immediately after you sign up, I'd like you to test it out. This is the important part...

Your membership isn't final until you're satisfied. You can take up to 8 weeks to decide.

However, I just know after you've completed your first survey, you'll be convinced. Your friends are going to want to know how you did it. That's when you tell them about Paid Surveys at Home.

To Your Success,

The Living Journal - Refresh And Renew of Suffering.

 I believe that the people we mix with are important, so we should create a positive ground.  For example, do your friends motivate and inspire you? Are you negative about life?

^_^ In fact, Yes I do sometimes! Being a Buddhist does not make you a better person, unless you have learned the Dharma and put it into actions, likewise it may seem like a sick person never take his or her medication after consultation with the doctors.

^_^ It is important to choose friends, when I share problems with friends, I am not looking for comfort, but an advice and solutions. Sometimes mix with people who you want to, but at the wrong time and the wrong crowd. With a YES attitude to life, nothing is impossible. Our mental strength is very powerful. With this assets, everything can be resolved, when you're mentally strong, nothing is a problem.

^_^ Life isn't just about work, money, marriage, and buying the things you want; life is about giving, and that is the true meaning of life. That is what enjoyment means in life. Things you share is more enjoyable than you are using it alone.

^_^ To me, the living Journal of living right is the most important thing in life. I always ask myself, how will people remember us ? For me, rather than buying a big house, big car,  I  have chosen a simple life, but with an affordable standard of living. Greediness when a greed is a bottomless pit which endless effort to satisfy the need without ever reaching satisfaction. 

^_^ I am not saying that we shouldn't work hard for a comfortable life, a good marriage and raise a family, but knowing the danger of greed is extremely destructive, it destroys everything once we owned.

^_^ You may be a billionaire and owned 100 of Penthouses, but you can only live in ONE at a time.
^_^ When we die, Is there any difference between a rich and a poor ? 

^_^ WHEN YOUR FINAL MOMENT HAS ARRIVED, DO YOU THINK YOU STILL OWN ALL THESE?  

The Four Noble Truths is the Buddha's first sermon after his Enlightenment. The truths are :-
° The truth of suffering.
° The truth of the cause of suffering.
° The truth of the end of suffering.
° The truth of that free us from  suffering.

Dedication of merits

Nagarjuna Bodhisattva Revelation of the Buddha sacred doctrines.

The Dragon Puja is derived from the sadhana of Chenresig Singey Dra or the Exalted Lion’s Roar Arya Avalokitesvara ( 獅子怒吼觀世音菩薩化生 ) who Dispels All Disease, an emanation of Chenresig, which pacifies naga harms. This puja is especially effective for those with heavy illnesses, cancer, Alzheimer’s and skin diseases. 

In the near future, do not miss any of this opportunity and to attend the Dragon puja for good reasons as mentioned. I personally had attended twice of this grand Dragons pujas that were performed at the open sea and it was a thrilling experienced in a lifetime. Once again, I am not superstitious but doubted as well. As advised by the Rinpoche, sometimes phenomenon does happen without a scientific and logical explanation.

The first time when I attended the Dragon puja which was performed in the opened sea water and the sea condition was calm, but in the middle of the ritual ceremonies, the sea water began to turn rough and waves strongly and strangely for about 25 minutes. It was one of my scary experienced. 

Tibetan Buddhist Dragon pujas serve many purposes. Buddhists appease Dragon that threaten mankind with diseases by holding rituals and making offerings that appeal to the Dragon'  sensibilities.

In the Monastery, the monks are offering a fresh  milk to appease to the dragon sensibilities so that the dragons they don't cause any harmful activity of mankind. The ritual ceremonies usually carried out at the open sea, rivers, lakes, streams where the Dragons are residing. Dragons are legendary supernatural creatures integral to both Hindu and Buddhist mythology. They are strong, wise and attractive immortal beings. 

Born into the animal realms, they can also appear as complete serpents or fully human. Dragons can be dangerous, protective or generous with human beings, and can even be potential Buddhas.Tibetan Buddhists believe some nagas are demonic, while others are semi-divine beings who guard material and spiritual treasures, such as sacred texts. 

In Buddhism, legends about nagas go back to the time of the Buddha, who lived from 564 B.C. to 483 B.C. According to one legend, when the Buddha recognized a naga that appeared as a snake, he had such compassion that he gave the creature the Five Precepts so the naga could return in the next life as a human who could become a monk. 

Nagarjuna Bodhisattva himself has been invited by the Dragon Emperor to his Crystal Palace to study some of the sacred texts that the Lord Buddha has once taught the sacred doctrines to the Dragon realm only. Nagarjuna Bodhisattva had bought back large amounts of the scriptures to the human realm. 

Nagarjuna Bodhisattva - 龍樹菩薩 as one of the six great commentators on the Buddha's teaching. He born in South India from 150 CE to 250 CE and is revered by all Buddhist schools. His teachings are the basis of the "Madhyamaka school" of Mahayana Buddhism. He is also credited with developing the Madhyamaka philosophy of the Prajnaparamita sutra(般若波羅蜜多) to the human realm from the Naga world. Madhyamaka school in Chinese is known as the(中觀派) the middle way philosophy of emptiness.
In explaining the philosophy of Madhyamika, Nagarjuna presented four positions he would not take:-

°All things (dharmas) exist; affirmation of   being, negation of nonbeing.
°All things do not exst; affirmation of nonbeing, negation of being.
°All things both exist and do not exist; both affirmation and negation.
°All things neither exist or do not exist; neither affirmation nor negation.

Nagarjuna Bodhisattva he is counted among the 84 great mahasiddhas of India. His famous writings include the "Precious Garden" , "Letter to a friend" and "Commentary on Bodhichitta"

His commentaries were renowned for their ability to convey outer, inner and secret levels of meaning, corresponding to the three turnings of the Wheel of Dharma and his main disciple was Aryadeva.

According to a 4th or 5th-century biography translated by Kumarajiva that Nagarjuna was born in a Brahmin family and later became a Buddhist.

Some sources claim that Nagarjuna lived on themountain of Sriparvata in his later years, near the city that would later be called  Hill of Nagarjuna.Nagarjunako was located in Guntar district of Andhra Pradesh.

Footnote

As a Buddhist , we are only offering to appease to the dragons not to harm us, but we don't take refuge from any worldly unenlightened beings . We only take refuge in the supreme Buddha, Dharma, Shangha and Guru, Yidam, enlightened Dakinis. 

Thank you for reading and may you find peace and joyfulness within yourself while you are reading my blog. 

Nagarjuna's Dedication of Merit:-
So nam di yi tham chay zig pa nyi
Thob nay nye pa'i dra nam pham jay nay 
Kye ga na chi'i ba lab thrug pa yi 
Si pa'i tso lay dro war drol war shog.

By this merit may we obtain omniscience then.
Having defeated the enemies wrong-doings.
May we liberate migrators from the ocean of existence.
With its stormy waves of birth, old age, sickness and death.

Tell Me What About Yourself When Interviews.

If the prospect of your next job interview is playing on your mind, then this is going to be the most important message you'll read today, because in the next few paragraphs, I'm going to tell you exactly what you need to do to make any hiring manager desperate to employ you!

If you've ever walked out of an interview with your head down and your shoulders up, you’ll know what I'm talking about. It’s that gut wrenching certainty that you've blown that one shot at your dream job – the interview.

What went wrong? Your resume matched the job perfectly, your skills and achievements were second to none but you messed up so badly on the questions – and why was the hiring manager sitting there with his arms folded and an expression on his face like you just insulted his mom?

You see, the truth is...in today’s fiercely competitive job market where every vacancy attracts countless applicants, it is vital to stay ahead of the competition. 

Here why...

Tell me about yourself

The ‘tell me about your self’ interview question should be expected in most interviews, and it is usually one of the first questions that the hiring manager will pull out of the bag. It seems like a fairly informal question, but knowing how to describe yourself in a concise and positive way will set the tone for the rest of the interview, so don’t drop your guard!

When answering this question, avoid telling your life story. What the hiring manager really wants to know is how you feel your life experience is relevant to the position you have applied for. Before you attend the interview, have a think about your highest achievements and consider how you could apply those to the job you are being interviewed for.

Don’t aimlessly chatter away about your hobbies and interests.

Do include specific achievements from your past which are relevant to this job. This can include work-place achievements, educational achievements and relevant out of work activities.

Do pick two or three of your achievements to talk about. Any more than that is overkill.

Sample response:

‘I belong to a debating society which I attend in my free time. From this I have learnt very strong negotiating skills which have served me very well during the last three years working as a Sales Manager. 

As a result, I recently won a big contract for my employer which will ensure our sales targets are exceeded for this financial quarter. While working for a previous employer, I introduced an innovative sales method which resulted in my sales team achieving their annual sales targets six weeks before the deadline and earning the whole team a bonus.

Sample questions and answers

Here are some sample questions and answers taken from my best-selling interview guide:

What do you do in your spare time?

This question is used for two reasons. Firstly, it is usually asked at the beginning of the interview as a gentle 'ice-breaker' to help you relax. Secondly, it helps the interviewer get a fuller idea of what type of person you are by discovering what your hobbies and leisure interests are.

Your answer should be honest, but think about any hobbies you may have which are relevant to the job you are applying for. For example, if you are applying for a sales position then mentioning that you play a competitive team sport would support your application.

Sample response: 'I like to spend time with my family and friends, but I am also a huge sports fan. I enjoy the excitement and competitive edge that comes with playing team sports. I think because I have such a goal orientated personality, it is why I enjoy working in sales so much.'

How do you handle criticism of your work?

Most supervisors and line managers have the occasional bad day when they'll find fault with your work, whether it's justified or not. The interviewer is trying to assess your view of your temperament. Do not respond by saying 'Tell them they are wrong'; that suggests someone who is not open to another opinion! Likewise, don't suggest you take it in your stride; no-one enjoys being criticized.

Sample response: 'Naturally, if I have put extensive time and effort into a project, it is not easy to be told that I've made mistakes or that my work is not up to scratch. I would obviously be concerned and ask my manager to explain why and where my work is not up to standard. I would reflect on those comments and incorporate them into future projects. If I felt I did not agree in areas I would politely explain why.'

Where do you see yourself in five years' time?

Depending on where you are in your job search and how many interviews you’ve endured unsuccessfully before this one, you may not particularly care where you are going to be in five years’ time (besides that may be the year you’ve penciled in a world cruise!). That’s not what the employer wants to hear. The response they are looking for is a forward thinking career plan that demonstrates logical, clear and achievable thinking. Similarly, do not say ‘I’m after your job’.

Sample response: ‘With my skills, achievements and experience I would anticipate growing within this company. In five years, with the appropriate opportunities and training, I would hope to be employed in a management or team leader role which would both challenge me and enable me to coach, encourage and mentor other members of staff’.

Which company did you least enjoy working for?

One of the golden rules in an interview is not to criticize any of your previous employers. While you may have explained that you made errors in taking roles in the past, you’ve personally accepted responsibility for that error. All jobs are a part of your career growth and present an opportunity to learn. If you criticize your former employers, it will, as we have said previously, reflect back on to you.

Sample response: ‘Every single one of my positions has been a learning experience, although I did accept one job for the wrong reasons. Each role has given me the opportunity to learn valuable lessons about myself and my career and I’m grateful for the continuing chances to evolve in my career’.

The Power Of Natural Healing.

oday the science behind the health benefits of vegetables is growing rapidly. Researchers have discovered that in addition to nutrients, vitamins and minerals, vegetables contain a various group of natural biologically active plant substances, so-called phytonutrients or phytochemicals, which plants produce to protect themselves against stress. Health experts believe these natural substances are also beneficial for human health.

Phytochemicals are natural bioactive compounds produced by plants that work with nutrients and dietary fiber to protect against disease.  Currently, the term is being used only for those plant chemicals that may have health-related effects but are not considered essential nutrients (proteins, carbohydrates, fats, minerals, and vitamins). 

Research suggests that phytochemicals, found in fruits, vegetables and nuts, may help slow the aging process and reduce the risk of many diseases, including cancer, heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, cataracts,  osteoporosis, and urinary tract infections.

The natural pigments that give vegetables and fruits their characteristic colors is just one important group of phytochemicals. Some of the pigments in vegetables, for example beta carotene in carrots and sweet potatoes, lycopene in tomatoes and lutein in spinach, have antioxidant properties. Antioxidants have the ability to block or reduce damage of cell's DNA from harmful free radicals produced in the body. 

Each color group has a unique combination of nutrients and phytochemicals that has been associated with specific health benefits, such as heart health, vision health, bone health, a healthy immune system, and risk reduction for different kinds of cancers. 

Phytochemicals

	modulate hormone metabolism
	stimulate the immune system
	have antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-carcinogen, antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties.

You can prevent many disorders and delay aging by just following the simple guide line:
every time you eat, fruits and vegetables should be half of what you eat.

The 8 Principal Dharmapala, Begtse (Part 8)

Dharma Protector prayer day according to the Tibetan month calendar and the Dharma Protectors prayer day is to be done on the 29th of the Tibetan lunar month calendar, and this is also to be known as the 'Dharmapala' day. 

There are certain days are considered auspicious day for certain practices, and on these particular days of the practices,  the effects of positive or negative actions are multiplied 100 times. 

From their looks you might think they are evils and the demonic terrifying appeances. But Dharmapalas are wrathful bodhisattvas who protect Buddhists and the Dharma. Their terrifying appearance is meant to frighten forces of evil. The eight Dharmapalas listed blow are considered the principal Dharmapalas.

Below is the most interesting legendary of a newly converted Dharmapala by our well known the 3rd Dalai Lama in 16 century ago.

Begtse is a war god who emerged in the 16th century, making him the most recent dharmapala. His legend is woven together with Tibetan history:

Sonam Gyatso, the Third Dalai Lama, was called from Tibet to Mongolia to convert the warlord Altan Khan to Buddhism. Begtse confronted the Dalai Lama to stop him. But the Dalai Lama transformed himself into the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. 

Witnessing this miracle, Begtse became a Buddhist and a protector of the Dharma. In Tibetan art, Begtse wears armor and Mongolian boots. Often he has a sword in one hand and an enemy's heart in the other.

* Footnote - For illustrations and references only.
Important note not to be taken lightly.
Please consult your Guru or a qualified lineage master for Dharmapala practices! Should a devotee even want to start studying and contemplating the Dharmapalas, then it is truly necessary to first have completed the preliminaries and to be certain and sure that bodhicitta has arisen and developed in one’s mind. 
It is absolutely necessary to have the pure motivation and to know that Dharmapala practice is not carried out to increase one’s own power and profit. Negative intentions of any kind may not be.
