Heart's Desire: Living A Humanitarian Life



This day marks the beginning of a new journey to life, the start of a soulful experience of a higher self beyond the physical realm of existence. This day also marks the re-discovery of the true self beyond ego and lower emotions. When the lost soul wanders, it will find its place to regain its self and follow the guiding light, a journey that holds the transformative power of self-discovery.

Although the lost chapters may be out of sight, those darkest moments find a way to escape, leading to a brighter and more fulfilling journey. Through deeper self-reflection, one has to find the right path and live with one's soul purpose—the so-called dharma, which is the inherent nature of an individual, the duty or righteous path one must follow in life.

The darkest moments in life are the unheard hopes and aspirations, the endless sufferings, and the blockages to living a better life. Being redirected down a long tunnel is to experience the reality of the negative side of the physical world—to experience not just the good but also the unfavorable things beyond personal control. 

To be human is to experience suffering. Learn from it and continue to seek the answer; find the truth and be the guiding light to those who wander. When you've been there, it will be easy to relate to the suffering one is dealing with, and you will become a master of your life—your thoughts and emotions.

Those years when I started to discover another dimension of life were a great spiritual experience and a time of personal transformation. It wasn't easy at the beginning. You have to undergo self-restraint and a sense of control over thoughts and emotions. It was only then that lower emotions were defeated through the enlightenment of the nature of man's suffering—endless suffering.

The initiation into the path brought significant change not only to self but also to the greater world. Being called to serve humanity and the world revealed the spiritual powers vested in me, and it became a way of life, a source of profound fulfillment and inspiration.  

Understanding the nature of humanity requires certain values one must learn to live. It was then that I learned to unleash the innate love and compassion that is the core of our being. I couldn't have given it to people without a deeper understanding and love of myself. I have loved myself and given it away, fostering a deep sense of empathy and connection with others.

Truly, humanitarian service is the most significant expression of love and compassion. To regain me is to continue the lost journey. It will be challenging, but it will be rewarding.

 Following Our Heart's Desire serves as a guide to living one's purpose. For me, service to humanity through education and personal development is the path—the sole purpose to live and master not only today but for a lifetime.
