"The Empires of the future are the Empires of the mind"
~ Sir Winston Churchill

Picture:www.barefootsworld.net/eagleflight.htm

Nearly all of my books, especially when I covered the key success, I always discuss about the concept of self. Why do I emphasize the importance of the concept is very self? The concept itself is a computer operating system's mental. The concept of self-determine our performance. Determine the level of self-concept level of achievement of life.

Self-concept consists of three components, namely the ideal self (ideal self), self image (self image), and the price of self (self esteem). Who is the ideal self ourselves in the future. Ideal self is our personal success. People we want to be. Self image is how we see ourselves at this time. This is about the mental picture of ourselves in today. Meanwhile, the price comparison is between self-image and self-ideal. If we lower the price themselves, the achievement of our lives, certainly low. Similarly vice versa.

Why do I write again about this topic? There is one interesting story that we can make it as a learning material. Story like this. Beginning January 2007 and we, I and my close friend Ariesandi, holding Supercamp Becoming a Money magnets. Supercamp this time attended by 31 participants from various cities. There came from Jakarta, Balikpapan, Menado, Surabaya, Samarinda, and other cities. We hold the SC with the number of participants that we are not the only limit to maintain exclusivity SC but also to be able to give the best results for the participants.

SC laden with practice and guidance to be conscious into the subconscious mind and find a mental block that hindered success. This process, into the subconscious mind, identify and destroy mental block, something that is not easy. This process is very difficult to run well if too many participants, say up to 50 people at the top. Moreover, if up to hundreds of people. Clearly it is not possible. Although there is a request that we hold the SC Akbar with the number of participants to hundreds, we remain on our principles.

There are many techniques that we use to help participants make reprogramming the conscious mind. In one session to identify mental block there are three participants who experienced the inner Conflict serious enough that it appears from their physical reactions.

One participant felt dizzy because they are blocking the energy in the region Indonesian and Chinese culture, and one female participants experienced vomiting, and the most serious is that the strain on the entire body. Special to the strain, A Bram, we give special handling, and soon.

I am sure you would feel "horror" when I read the description. However, this is actually very normal. Handling is also very easy. Of course it easy for us because we are used to therapy. Then, what happens is that the subconscious mind Bram?

Bram could see himself in the future with very clear. How appearance, apparently, tingkahnya, attitudes, how to walk, lifestyle, home, car, and what he idamkan, he can see clearly once. For some time Bram "live" in the future that is very beautiful. Future he impikan.

However, there is one part of the self Bram reject this. Bram feel part of this is not feasible or may not achieve the dream. However, on the one hand, there is one other part, from the self Bram, who really want and believe that Bram has the right and feasible to achieve any dream.

In the subconscious mind Bram contravention occurred, fierce battle, pull overextend, mutual influence between the two parts that ultimately affect physical condition. Bram experiencing convulsions. Easy handling. Only in a few minutes we successfully integrate the two parts of this conflict.

Young women who experienced vomiting another case. He knows that the conflict there. However, he tried hard to deny and convince himself that everything is ok. After vomiting and pale face the cold hands. Her husband, the SC also slightly worried. After dialiri had energy and made pemijatan dots on a certain energy in the body quickly recovered its return as usual.

Readers, I describe cases in which the case is normal that often occur in the space therapeutist practices. Are even more serious again. Conditions of this emotional paroxysm term technical abreaction. Explained to you can read my books Hypnotherapy: The Art of Subconscious Restructuring. I think a campaign to explain my new book.

Why can happen like that? In normal conditions the internal conflict is not too visible. That is visible on the effects of conflict in this particular form of behavior. For example, delaying work habits, feeling uncomfortable when a target is set to be achieved, the desire to achieve a dream, but there is a feeling themselves less valuable or less feasible to achieve that dream, or any perceived in someone who is "never good."

One of the most easy way to check whether we are in conflict or not is to check with our feelings. For example? For example, your income is Rp. 5 million. You want to reach the income of Rp. 20 million. You can visualize the achievement of very clear. However, there is a feeling uncomfortable in your heart. It feels thin difficult. Well, this is the signature of conflict. I NLP terms of people with this condition is called "not congruent."

Another example is when we give the target of learning for children. For example, the value of our children in English, only 60. We help children set a goal of, say, the value reached 90. Although children would achieve this target, you should ask the feelings of children. Is there a wedge in his heart? Is there any sense "for his good"? If so, then this means there is resistance in mind sadarnya down.

What actually happens is the child (self image) can not see himself reaching values 90 (ideal self). Because children "sure" it difficult or impossible to achieve the result, the price of the 90 children themselves will have shaking.

If you work hard to understand how self-esteem or self-concept, I will use the analogy of money. Assuming the price ourselves with the same amount of money we have. If the money we only Rp. 100000 and we want to buy goods with the price of Rp. 1,000,000 then no matter what we do, want to beg, threaten, cry, pray, kneel apply leniency seller, or any, in normal condition, we may not be able to get the goods. Experience, who want to recoup by selling goods worth Rp. 1 million in the price of Rp. 100,000?

Whatever the condition occurs when the conflict between the conscious mind (the will reach a value of Rp 90/income. 20 million) and the subconscious mind (self image; value of Rp 60/income now. 5 million), so that always win the mind is unconscious. Theory of mind that the comparative strength of mind and the unconscious conscious is 1:9.

How do I make the set target can be achieved easily? How simple, albeit not easy to do so. We must, with certain therapeutic intervention, improve self image or, if that approach can be the same with our ideal self.

One of the things that we are truly delightful Bram said that he has been experiencing increased self exceptional integration process after he experienced. What is the effect on Bram?

I very much. Friend-i said that since that time Bram become much more confident, more friendly, more active in communications, happier and more peaceful, more brave, and many other positive things. They have to know about Bram year mark can only see the changes that occurred in Bram.

Honestly, our own shocked and stunned by the changes in the self Bram. We know that this positive change happen. However, we again stunned by the strength of mind and their influence on human life.

The mind is the key to change. The mind is the key to change the children prefer chicken to be a mighty eagles flying high, which is able to explore space highway.

I remember the wise words of spiritual teacher that "the mind is the forerunner of all things, the mind is the leader, is forming the mind" and "As a man thinketh in his heart so is he."

There is a theory that we so love the Lord

Perfect days for perfect Ibaadah

By Asma bint Shameem

Alhamdulillaah. .....the blessed days are here one more time!

The glorious days when rewards are multiplied many times, and sins are forgiven much more... the days in which Allaah gives us yet another chance to worship Him, to ask for forgiveness and correct our faults and make up for our shortcomings. ...
the blessed days that the Sahabah waited for and prayed for....
the beautiful days in which they strived long and hard in worship, until they could do no more....

What are these magnificent days?

These blessed days are the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah (Nov 29-Dec 8, 2008)
Just like the last ten nights of Ramadaan are the best ten nights out of the whole year, the Ulama tell us that out of the 365 days of the year, these first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah are the best days of the year and the most beloved to Allaah as they combine acts of worship in a way unlike any other times.
The Prophet testified to that. He said: "There are no days in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allaah than these ten days......." (Bukhaari)

Subhaan Allaah wal-Hamdulillaah!

What a blessing!

The question is.....what do I do on these magnificent days and how can I make the most of this perfect, golden, golden opportunity to earn rewards and Jannah?

Obviously, Hajj is one of the best deeds that one can do during these ten days. However for those of us who were not invited to His House this year, there are still many, many good deeds that one can do and earn the Pleasure of Allaah.

Some of these are:

1) Fast all nine days and especially fast the Day of 'Arafah

The Prophet said: "Anyone who fasts for one day for Allah's pleasure, Allah will keep his face away from the (Hell) fire for (a distance covered by a journey of) seventy years." (Bukhari, Muslim)
Just imagine..... if you fast these nine days (fasting on Eid is haraam), how far your distance will be from hell!
The Prophet used to fast on the ninth day of Dhu'l-Hijjah and he said: "Fasting the Day of 'Arafah (ninth Dhul-hijjah) (Dec 7, 2008) is an expiation for (all the sins of) the previous year and an expiation for (all the sins of) the coming year." (Muslim)

2) Do a LOT of Dhikr and Takbeer

The Prophet said: "There are no days on which good deeds are greater or more beloved to Allaah than on these ten days, so recite much Tahleel (saying Laa ilaaha ill-Allaah), Takbeer (saying Allaahu akbar) and Tahmeed (saying al-hamdu Lillaah)." (Ahmad -Saheeh)

Ibn 'Umar and Abu Hurayrah used to go out in the marketplace during the first ten days of Dhu'l-Hijjah, reciting Takbeer, and the people would recite Takbeer when they heard them. (Bukhaari)

Takbeer at this time is a Sunnah that has mostly been forgotten, especially during the first few days. So say it in the masjid, in your home, on the street and every place where it is permitted to remember Allaah. Revive the Sunnah that have been virtually forgotten and earn great rewards for doing so.
The Prophet said: "Whoever revives an aspect of my Sunnah that is forgotten after my death, he will have a reward equivalent to that of the people who follow him, without it detracting in the least from their reward." (Tirmidhi- a hasan hadeeth)
Obviously, men should recite these phrases out loud, and women should recite them quietly.

3)Stand in Night Prayers:

Remember the virtues of spending the night in prayer, and its sweetness in Ramadan?! Why not revive this beautiful act of worship during these nights as well?!

Remember, how in the last third of every night, Allah Almighty calls out to us, His servants:

"Is there anyone to invoke Me, so that I may respond to his invocation? Is there anyone to ask Me, so that I may grant him his request? Is there anyone seeking My forgiveness, so that I may forgive him?" (Bukhaari, Muslim)

Why do we miss this golden opportunity? So, seize the chance NOW and expose yourself to His Divine Generosity and Mercy, ask Him to forgive you and guide you and set things aright. He will surely listen.

4)Make Sincere Repentance.

One of the best and most important things to do during these ten days is to repent sincerely to Allaah and to give up all kinds of disobedience and sin right away because we do not know when we will die, and also because one evil deed leads to another.

But what does 'repentance' exactly mean?

It means that you come back to Allaah and give up all the deeds, open and secret, that He dislikes.... that you regret whatever you did in the past, giving it up immediately and be determined never ever, to return to it, and resolve to adhere firmly to the Truth by doing whatever Allaah loves.

"But as for him who repented, believed and did righteous deeds, then he will be among those who are successful." [al-Qasas 28:67]

5) Come back to the Qur'aan

It is time now to dust off your copy of the Qur'aan and return to its
refuge. Make it a daily habit, using these 10 days the beginning of a strong and beautiful relationship with it. Read it with meaning, understand it, and then implement it and change your lives for the better, as much as you can. Remember that reading one letter of the Qur'aan earns you 10 rewards. In this way, reading Surat Al-Fatihah,which doesn't take more than two minutes will give you more than one thousand rewards! This is on ordinary days, so what about these magnificent days! Certainly the reward will be far greater, Insha Allaah.

6) Generally increase in doing ALL good deeds

We should strive in doing more good deeds in general, because good deeds are beloved by Allaah and will bring us closer to Him.

So if we are not able to go to Hajj this year, we should occupy ourselves during these blessed days by worshipping Allaah, praying extra prayers, reading Qur'aan, remembering Allaah, sending Salaams on the Prophet , making dua, giving charity, honoring our parents, upholding ties of kinship, enjoining what is good and forbidding what is evil, and other good deeds and acts of worship.

"So whosoever does good equal to the weight of an atom, shall see it; And whosoever does evil equal to the weight of an atom, shall see it."[al-Zalzalah 99:7-8]

7) Get the reward of Hajj wherever you are:

You may be unable to do Hajj this year, and you may feel sad because you are deprived of the great reward of Hajj. But you can achieve a similar reward in whatever place you may be.

The Prophet said: "Whoever prays Fajr Prayer in congregation, and then sits and remembers Allah until the sun rises, then (after a while) prays two rak'as, he will gain a reward equal to that of making perfect Hajj and Umrah." [He repeated the word "perfect" thrice.] (At-Tirmidhi)
Isn't that easy ? Alhamdulillah

8) Slaughter an animal and distribute the meat

Ibn Umar said: The Prophet lived in Madeenah for 10 years and every year he slaughtered an animal." (Ahmad-Saheeh by al-Albaani)

9) Attend Eid prayers

But remember that Eid prayer is a form of worship and we shouldn't be doing things that are unIslaamic (especially) during these times, such as listening to music, women going out for prayer without proper Hijaab, mixing of men and women, etc.

10) Thank Allaah

One of the biggest forms of worshipping Allaah Subhaanahu wa Ta'ala is to thank Him, deeply, sincerely and continuously.

After all, it is He who gave you every single thing that is in you, on you or around you. In fact, you wouldn't even be here if it wasn't for the Mercy of your Creator.

So thank Him for ALL that He gave you, the Islaam that He gave you, the very life He gave you. And thank Him for the chance that He gives you in these ten days, to ask for forgiveness and guidance.

Alhamdulillah, there is much to be gained in these coming days. So make the most of this perfect opportunity offered by these invaluable and irreplaceable ten days. Hasten to do good deeds and appreciate this blessing and make the most of it, striving hard in worship .

"And worship your Lord until there comes unto you the certainty (death)." [al-Hijr 15:99]

Stop To Be A Glass

Kamis, Desember 04, 2008

A visit to a Sufi teacher when the students face this always looked glum. "Why do you always glum, I? Is not it beautiful in this world? Where retinue bersyukurmu face?" The teacher asked.

"Teachers, recently my life full of problems. It is difficult for me to smile. The problem comes as no timeless," replied the young students.

The Teachers terkekeh. "BUT, take a glass of water and two to hold the salt. Bring aboard. Let kuperbaiki atmosphere heart is." The students moved slowly, without any spirit. He conducted the teachers request it, and then back again to bring cups and salt as required.

"Try to take handful of salt, and insert it into a glass of water," said the teacher. "After that you try a little drink the water." The students also do so. Women now drink grimace as the salty water.
"How does it taste?" The question Teachers.

"Salt, nausea and Subscribe so," replied the student with a face that still grimace.

The teachers giggle see the faces of the students keasinan grimace.

"Now you take it." The teachers take the students to the lake near their place. "Take the remaining salt, and tebarkan to the lake." The students spread the remaining handful of salt to the lake, without talking. Salty taste in the mouth, not lost. He wants to spit the salty taste of his mouth, but I do. It seems polite mursyid spit in the face, so it.

"Now, you try to drink the lake water," said the teacher while searching for a fairly flat stone for didudukinya, right on the lake.

The students cover both hands, take the lake water, and bring them to his mouth and meneguknya. When the lake water is cold and fresh flows in tenggorokannya, the teacher asked him, "How does it taste?"

"Fresh, fresh, once," said the student while dust lips with the back of your hand. Of course, the lake is derived from the flow of water resources in there. And the water flows into a small river below. And certainly, the lake water is also remove the remaining salty taste in his mouth.

"Terasakah taste of salt that it was tebarkan?"

"Not at all," said the student while taking water and drinks again. The teachers have only a smile, let the students drink the lake water until satisfied.

"BUT," said the teacher after students finished drinking. "Any problems in life, such as the handful of salt. Not less, not more. Only a handful of salt. Too many problems and suffering that you should naturally throughout life is dikadar by God, according to yourselves. Fixed amount, of the just-might need, not reduced and do not increase. Every human being is born into this world so. No one man, although he was a prophet, which is free from suffering and problems. "

The students silent, listening.

"But Goodman,` salty taste 'of the suffering that is experienced depends on the size of the' Qalbu '(heart) the intermediate. So Goodman, so do not feel suffering, so stop glass. Qalbu in dadamu Make it so the lake. "

Healthy Heart Is The Secret of Healthy Body
