It [the 8-Day Health & Happiness Retreat] has been a very transformative experience for me, particularly the Golden Words and the Meditation of Greater Illumination (GI). They helped me feel much more confident, empowered, and compassionate.
The Golden Words really made me reflect about myself. Sometimes you don’t realize your own qualities, and you may feel that you are not at the same level as others—perhaps because they have higher titles, or because of your own insecurities. Through the Golden Words, you begin to feel the empowerment that GI allows you to feel. It helps you face the world in a much more joyful way, with a broader mind to succeed in the broader sense of the world.
Before this retreat, I often lacked confidence and felt insecure in my work. After the retreat, I feel there is a warm, peaceful energy within me.
Recently, I had a very important meeting with my boss and many higher-ups. Before the meeting, I practiced GI and recited Master JinBodhi’s Golden Words. For the first time in my life, I walked into that meeting full of confidence. I had never felt that way before. The meeting went very well.
I’ve also become closer to my parents and children, and more loving in my daily life. I know that my inner change has made the difference.
(Ps:The effects of meditation will vary from person to person.)
