Pulled by a linkage of forces I didn’t see at the time as any more than pot luck, I warily presented at an advertised Positive Thinking course at a Meditation Center. My skepticism, fuelled by the tag ‘free’, I sat as near
to the door as was politely possible. Seeking an answer to spontaneous bouts of ‘red mist’ anger, I guessed a throw of the positive thinking dice might help. Nothing to lose, I thought. I was soon absorbed in the theory of mind and intellect and responsibility for what and how I thought but the mention of soul had me furtively looking for the door. Still, my teacher was pleasant and obviously genuine. Rather than hurt her feelings I stayed, vowing to not return next week. But the unrecognized forces pulled me back.  I found I was getting, I thought, quite good at this meditation thing. I found I was picking up on anger triggers in advance of the potential explosion. I discovered I could manage what I thought, hence how I responded.  I learned about tolerance of others and acceptance of myself, about transmitting dignity and respect to others, about forgiveness and love, and the joy of peace.
It all crept up on me, and one day I thought, hey, I haven’t been angry for a long time. Two years on I have a long way to go, but the journey is the game, and  Knowledge is the path. I think I’ll make it.

For decades I am suffering from manic depression. Up to now I don’t
succeed to cure this terrible illness but I find strength and courage in
divine knowledge and all day long meditation to go on. I understand some
causes of the illness and the meaning of suffering in general and I see
possible solutions in the long run and that gives me the willpower and
reason to go on and live as good as possible.

It all started on 29th January,2009, when my vision stumbled on a board in
Yaounde “Meditation Centre”. I was in a very serious state and looking
forward to Peace of Mind and finding a purpose to my existence for a long
time.

I was very fortunate to get acquainted with the Centre and took up the
course in Practical Meditation through which I was able to eradicate all
sorts of negative thoughts and found a clear direction in my life.  I can
say I have a peaceful mind now.

Throughout the training course and intense meditation I was  able to
experience a healing process of the mental faculties  and other ailments
of the physical body.

I am having a blissful state of mind

I recommend all, everywhere to avail themselves to this opportunity to
learn this wonderful technique.

I had a recent major surgery, which meant no job for quite a while or
cannot do at all, a big hospital bill and necessity of the help of others.

But my faith in God gave me tremendous will power that I can overcome this
and reduce the effects of this.

1st day hospital bill was around $90,000 and insurance covers partially.
Normally patients stay at least 2-3 days in hospital.  But because of the
will power within few hours of surgery I told the nurse that I am fine and
I would like to go home. When Physical therapist came I walked and went up
and down the stairs and she could not keep up with me with that. She felt
that I can go home and similar thing happened when surgeon checked me. So
I was discharged after their visit.

I am not sure how I got the energy to do those things there. In fact when
I came home I felt extremely weak.

This saved me from bill and reduced the dependency on my husband to visit
me at hospital and as well take care of the kids. So could manage the
whole thing without a single friend /relative help.

Similar things happened during post surgery recovery time too.

I was not very healthy internally before going to a  Meditation Centre. After doing the meditation course, my inner strength increased, I had clarity, all
relationships which I never tried to make better and lost hope in, suddenly became like my very dear relationships. Until then I had been feeling constant pain because of the past. Now I was able to give, to change my vision. Even if the others did not change, I was changing.

More importantly, I am now proud of my inner processing, my thoughts, my
actions, and my interactions with others and with myself. My thoughts are pure and stable and I am now satisfied, as I think this is what I wanted in life.

All my questions are answered through my connection with God and I can feel Him guiding me away from every obstacle. I also experience my thought power working. Whenever I think of doing something with the strong belief that “I can do this”or “this will happen” that surely is always fulfilled. Life is in my control now, and I am no longer running behind life.

Once I was very sick and had a temperature for two weeks. One day when I
was feeling a little better I wanted to go to some meditation classes. I picked up the car early in the morning at 6 o clock and I was on my way to the
Meditation Centre. Whilst driving, I was approaching a roundabout when suddenly a cyclist came in front of me. I heard a crushing noise as he went under my car. I thought he had probably died; I had so many thoughts in my mind in just a few seconds. I had so many fears but I also had God in my mind. I said to God; please protect him, if he dies I will have to live with it for the rest of my life. If he has broken his bones I will still have to pay for it for
the rest of my life. I said to God, you are the only one who can protect
me at this time.

I hadn’t even come out of the car and the police was everywhere. When I opened the door, the person came out from under the car and he
was perfectly ok.  He just jumped out and said he was OK,  and that he wanted to go to work. The police offered to drop him to work. He said his bike is damaged and that I would have to pay £100 to cover the cost, which I agreed to.  At that moment I burst into tears, relieved that he was OK and that God had protected me.   I was just happy that he was in good condition and felt that we had both been protected.
