Reflect is to reproduce, rebound, mirrored and to give back or show an image. When we look at the mirror, it gives us a reflection of ourselves with an image of how we look.

It also serves as a form of mediation to reflect on one’s virtues and faults. Whatever we do reflects what we learn from our own family upbringing and education we learn. It is an aspect or impression of how well or poor we do in anything, for an example, the project’s success reflects well on your abilities.

Reflections are what we see around us everyday but how many times do we actually slow down our pace and take a look at our past actions and reflect on how we can improve ourselves for the better?

No many people do self reflection in fact, instead of doing so, they blame others, taking their own faults and claiming it to be others by implicating and pulling others into the picture via expanding and fault finding like a amplifier or loudspeaker to make everybody know what is happening.

Blame is like the junior of reflection, whereby from reflection than will we gain wisdom and improve while the former will only increase our problems.

By mediating, which the monks does regularly, they attain a higher level of wisdom and intelligence thus they are free from corruption, greed and money despite the major influence on capitalism throughout the world and yet Buddhism or the Shao Lin Shi in China is still going strong and has greatly influence many other nations and individuals to join if not to learn about it and even Americans are learning marital arts from China which is the spark to USA’s interest in China whereby white skin start to change their views about the yellow skin. I am not being racist or anything but it is just facts which we all have to accept, with Shao Lin Shi’s acceptance and willingness to share etc, it is what open the window to sharing, mutual beneficial win-win situation etc. It is only when we ignore all those skin colour, religion practice and accept one another that allow us to gain wisdom and intelligence beyond what schools teach.

Mediation is a art, it is something that can be taught, self-learned and picked up easily as long as the person is interested in learning it, with mediation, seeking the inner peace, thus reflecting on their past actions and coming to a truce with whatever they are doing to walk on a path of improving themselves regardless of the sins they did in the past.

It is to admit and agree totally that it is their own fault for the whatever situation they are in presently based on their past actions. Than with mediation, do soul searching and look back in their mind and see themselves on what exactly did they do, how they do it etc. It is like piecing up all your past memories together and watching the memories unfold themselves in your mind like watching a movie of yourself as a lead and learning from your own mistakes.

Everybody will surely be able to do soul searching at the one critical point in our own lives and that is when we are at the brink of death, either when we are about to die peacefully, or from accident and being rushed to hospitals (touchwood) etc.

It is something which we all can do everyday, every second as long as we want to do it. The catalyst to success starts from reflecting on yourself and martial arts is one way which we can cultivate both mind body and soul.

Tension is a strained relationship between both parties between individuals, groups or nations. It is the disagreements which both parties fail to come up with a mutually beneficial terms causing the relationship to be stretched and the bonding goes from thick to thin with each escalating issues surfacing.

It creates emotional strain, intense anxiety among everyone among those affected by the disagreements.

Tensions are everywhere, from average person walking on the streets to businesses, and even nations. All the way from the smallest average people like you and I to the biggest most powerful nations, all of us are living in a tensed up society these days with lots hidden unhappiness stored inside each nation waiting for eruption like a volcano. Each new failed or sour business relationship between two countries is like the sill of the volcano, the unhappiness among both countries is like the large magma chamber.

When a failed sour business caused relationships to take a slight turn for the worse, causing job losses in businesses affecting large scale especially among different countries, a parasitic cone is formed with lava flowing out from the parasitic cone slowly increasing the damage as it waits for the magma chamber to erupt with time.

There are so many examples to look at among different nations.

First up most frequently appeared in news media is China US bilateral ties issue which goes a long way, and is made worse with white house support Google from getting bullied by Baidu who is protecting the China identity at home and online.

Next up is US versus Iran, the quest to sweep the root of the terrorist clean and flush them out but it still has a long way to go. USA once missed the chance to plug out Osama Bin Laden as reported in one of the news reports last time, wanting to silence the ring leader, father of the terrorist who was personally trained by the US themselves.

Up next will be Thailand politics chaos situation, with the red shirt versus the yellow shirt. Former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra who made billions upon using his politics influence to increase his wealth, avoided paying tax and accused by current prime minister Abhisit Vejjajiva who is constantly digging for new evidence to upset and reduce his influence in Thailand wanting to silence the opposition the red shirt but has yet to see any improvement, in fact he made the Thailand economy worse following the recent demonstration just in front of the Thailand airport causing it to be closed for a day, out of business suffering huge losses.

Up next closely is Korea, North and South Korea always appear in the news yearly due to tensions between cross-border with communist and democratic country respectively with the display of their military might and protection from strong nations from Russia and US respectively as backing.

The rest that follows are just minor national tensions purely for profits and tourism competition that not as important as those above.

Tensions arise for many reasons, without early antidote, it will escalate bigger and bigger over time like a volcano, once erupted, serious damage will be felt and casualties and business losses of people who live around the volcano area suffers.

Tensions are just identical to our health. A cold may be a minor issue which can heal and thus often overlooked, but it is leaves any after-effects, it will lead to serious complications, as cold, flu and cough are the minor symptoms.

Health is the core problem for individuals. Business tensions is the core problems for countries while politics and military related concerns affects the whole world if not at least the surrounding countries when there’s a surge in military might with purchase of weapons.

The next time you get into any disagreement, solve it instantly if not as soon as possible, else it will escalate into another business war whereby companies lose, profits reduced and only the consumers benefit from business battle. If it’s individual, sooner or later there will be more stares, arguments before turning to catfights or business sabotage depending on the genders.

So handle any arguments addressing right to the root of the problem, look at what caused the problem, don’t solve it only from the surface which will not help.

If you need examples: Look at hospitals around the whole world, the patients get sicker and more illness especially terminal and expensive illness find their way onto the patients increasing their burden. Have you ever heard of patients suffering from TCM, not even once at all since history?

Look at the difference, which medical practice should you seek help from, answer is obvious, if you want to save more money, choose TCM, but start early, and it will save you mountains of money bit by bit starting from young as TCM is all about healing all weakness of the body that cause a illness to surface, while western drugs only help heal the illness which has surface and not the root of the problem.

Understand the cause and effect, and entrepreneurship will be a breeze for those who understand it, building a strong mind with the right foundation as basics.

Good habits start from young.
