Millions of us have a dog, cat, or other animal(s) as a companion or a friend. They bring us so much joy and happiness through their unconditional love. Their love for us is so powerful that they often risk their lives to save and protect ours. Such love, sacrifice and loyalty seems more Divine and angelic in quality than mere friends and companions.

They seem more like angels than animals here on earth. They love, give, and serve like angelic beings. However, when these Divine canine and feline friends or family members are injured, most of the times we are at lost and don’t know what to do other than bring them to a animal hospital. Surely there must be more that we can do for our Divine Angelic friends before or after they receive medical care.  Indeed there is, through holistic healing and interspecies communication skills.

Dare to Imagine a Brand New World: a message of hope and empowerment

Never ceasee to cream

Once upon time, there was a boy who was bullied, beat up and  lied to. He was told that he would never amount to anything and  he even suffered all sorts of mental, emotional verbal abuse by the dysfunctional and toxic adults and teachers in his life. It didn’t take long before  this young boy began to live a  very dark, gloomy and dismal life.

Each day he lived, was another day in hell. He lived in a sea of negativity, toxicity and chaos. Each day he felt like he was drowning in despair and hopelessness. However, one day he decided to Dare to Imagine how he wanted his life to be despite all the odds that was against him.

When he did that, something magical happened- hope was born. It began to dissolve some of the dark clouds  and negativity around and allowed him to feel the greatness within.  At that time, he didn’t understand it but he knew that deep down inside that there was a special part of him that longed to come forth.  When he hung on to his dream, hope and vision, it became a life raft that saved him from drowning.

It would give me a chance to meet and greet with some of my readers.

Turbocharge your prayer

BEYOND SOCIAL MEDIA 19Many studies have been done that  prove that prayer really does work and that positive changes can happen because of it. The movie, Inori: Conversation with something Great, talks a lot about the various scientific studies of prayer. I highly recommend this movie to any spiritual or religious group. It is in Japanese but has English subtitle but the special guest are well worth watching  including Dr. Deepak Chopra, Bruce Lipton, Lynne McTaggart,  etc.  The film was directed and produced by award winning Japanese movie director, Tetsu Shiratori.

Prayer is a common tool used in most if not all religions. It is a tool that we use to connect to God and with each other. Prayer to me is is our way with connecting with each other and God through the Divine Cosmic web of God’s Love, Energy and Consciousness. I see what many people praying but only doing  it with  lip service. Many of these people do it from an intellectual level with no emotional connection whatsoever. There is nothing wrong with that but I truly believe we can turbo charge and amplify the power and effect of prayer if we just add a few additional steps.

Longevity and Immortality (An Updated Version)


Since the beginning of civilization, there has been a relentless quest  for the fountain of youth or an insatiable  search for finding methods to prolong our lives. During biblical times, it has been reported that some have lived to  be anywhere from several hundred  to 969 years old to 1000 years old.

Susan Shumsky, author of Ascension, wrote about a Chinese man- Master Li Ching Yuen-who lived to be at least 250 years of age in her book. Master Yuen learned about the ancient art of longevity one day after he met a 500 year old Taoist. When asked what was his secret, the master replied that he did an ancient exercise called Ba-Kua ( eight trigrams). I am familiar with this method since my former Gung Fu master practiced this everyday in his studio. After so many years, he still looks the same and still full of vitality as I see him walk the streets of Chinatown.  Perhaps there is some truth to it.

True Love

What is Love?  Is there really true love? That is the million dollar question. Philosophers, religious leaders and corporate America  have all tried to define love for us but what is it really? The manufactured love we see on TV, on the big screen and in copious romance and fantasy novels gives us the impression that love is a powerful, blissful, passionate display of emotions; most importantly, it is always romantic. However, with the high divorce rate and breakups with this kind of love, it makes us wonder what love really is and if that one true love really exist.

Love  is many things  but not about fulfilling our desires, lust and wants. It is not about controlling the object of our affection. It is not conditional and demands for attention.

Dare To Imagine Continues to Make a Difference!!!

dare to imagine coverThe owner of a store in Dublin bought and read Dare to Imagine. He was quite impressed with  it and was proud and excited to sell our book.  Sale has been good there. We continue to restock our books there on a regular basis. Recently a woman purchased the book and was quite touched by it so much so she bought the rest of the copies off the shelf on Thursday. She found the book quite helpful and relevant and wanted to share it with her love ones. She asked the owner of the store to have me autograph one copy  and write  a special message to her son to inspire and encourage him. I was happy and honored to comply with her wishes.

This week I went to visit a  client of mine but was surprised to be greeted by her grandson who had recently heard about my book and  bought a copy. Usually he is quite quiet and very soft spoken but today he transformed into an entirely different person. He was just oozing with positive reviews and feedback about the book. He found it extremely relevant and was quite touched by the story. He had so much enthusiasm when talking about the book that he could hardly contain himself from talking. He was so joyous, emotional and triumphant when talking about how the book was so inspirational to him.
