Place with Positive Energy



This afternoon, I went to look for Riki aka kiki at Tanah Merah - the adobe of Ven Vissudhachara. I did not get to meet Ven himself, but managed to read an interesting article on mindfulness meditation. Meditated there for a while and could feel the very strong positive energy over there. Its indeed a very nice and peaceful place, and very easy to get myself into concentration.

The location of this place is pretty near Wan Fo Lin, which is used to be my favourite hideout before Poh Ern Sih. I suddenly recall something interesting that a BS snr has told me years ago. A well-learnt and wise buddhist master has pointed out the location where Wan Fo Lin is situated, as the place with the 'most positive energy' in the entire Singapore. He supported his claim by the colour of the air/sky/clouds (or something along this line) above that piece of land. It was believed then that a bodhisattva existed in Wan Fo Lin, and she was none other than a very old and senior nun residing in the temple. I have prostrated to her personally few yrs ago and I must say she really looks different.

Now I am not surprised that the area around Wan Fo Lin must have shared the same type of Positive Energy. Well... wats most impt is our own cultivation, but that place is definitely a nice support to our practice :D
