Good sounds

I read with interest how a Japanese researcher claims that mantras chanted can bring about 'good water molecules' while curses make 'bad water molecules'. A Tibetan monk picked up from that, and recommended that we can actually purge our systems of toxic elements by chanting certain utterances and willing a simple thought process. Hmm . . . interesting.

We all know that a positive environment better nurtures desired growth and bring about fruition of potentials. So, the correct thing to do is to surround ourselves (that is, if we can help it) with optimistic and encouraging people. And of course, try and dabble in healthy pursuits. Whenever this is not possible, we should then try and counter any negative influences by building up the goodness and positive energy in us. Remember, to a large extent, we can control our attitudes and reactions to situations. Try it!

Thinking of you all as you tackle your Pre-lims. Wishing you well and looking forward to getting you in best shape for the "O"s!
