I really enjoyed the first part of the course which I completed in the first month. Vishen is an amazing teacher who inspired me a lot with his questions and techniques. His question did land on me, and stayed with me for a long time, when he asked what is the most important thing for me, even when I run out of money and stay in the street as a beggar, these things still stay here with us..
I did find the answer for myself that strongly affects the way I make decisions. My boyfriend and I will be "kicked out" of the studio soon, and struggle a lot with our life at the moment, especially financial matters, and maybe my imagination about "being homeless" kind of comes true. However, I didn't feel panic, and still made decisions for personal growth, and for staying with love, faith, and gratitude that I deeply felt a few days ago. The course didn't make me change into a totally new person, with success and abundance (yet) but it gave me trust, hope, and understanding in the midst of difficulties.
I continued the second part of the course a few days ago, and definitely love it. However, I do meditate every day, so visualization doesn't work well for me. I get a headache anytime I try to visualize anything, even though I felt more confident after the exercise. I just tried it one time, and stayed with the first part of the program which helped me to find out and to stay with the most essential thing :)
I also found motivation, to learn and to reach the community in the near future, by sharing and contributing, as the story Vishen shared about the group of Buddhists in Malaysia. I love the story and feel inspired by it. Even though I am broke at the moment, I know that there is a way out, as the way Vishen did in his past, and now he becomes the source of inspiration.
