A World of Her Own - A personalized peaceful world

A Tibetan grandma doing her focus meditation along with mantra recitation while enjoying her tea in a traditional tea cup made of wood.


Take a closer look at this picture, what do you see? 


Each individual may have different interpretations of this picture. When I look at this picture, it reminds my grandma's life. 

By now, my mind is influenced by a long gone, pleasant events with my grandma, so I see, this grandma as well, doing her mantra recitation in a hymn style with a cat purring and an Tibetan Apso dog sleeping on each side of her.  

With her left hand, she is rolling each beads; meanwhile, she is singing the sacred mantra hymn. 

With her right hand, she is spinning the silver hammered wheel, filled with text scrolls, which is printed with millions of sacred mantras, hence she is feeling the positive energies of the mantras.
 

 With her mind, she is focusing on the mental image of a beloved and entrusted master, or meditational deity,  to whom she sees the sublime spiritual qualities and hence, she experiences the blissful state of her mind.
  
In brief, she is cultivating a positive attitude, speech and body postures, which is healing her within and toning her on the outside.
