MICHELE DONGMO finds her guidance from within. Here she shares her way of finding clarity, direction and purpose in life.
As a curious mind, I like to research new and useful inventions with the help of technology. I like practicing meditation and Yoga, and I love dancing, singing and traveling. Everything that helps me to be useful to myself and others automatically becomes a passion for me.
I have had this deep feeling of knowing my origin to be not only at the human or physical level, but beyond. Having a mother who is as passionate about spirituality pushed me into it, too, and I began meditating in 2008. To me, meditation means constant change. It has helped me to accept life as it is. I still get angry sometimes, but more so with myself. It goes away quickly, especially when I use my practice to let go of emotions, or because of a strange positive thought, and my heart is always light, free.
Like other youth my age, I want to control my emotions, not allowing any external changes to affect me. When I come across difficulties, I try to find solutions, and when I don’t find them I give them up to a higher power. Through meditation, I have learnt to listen deep within me. I stay quiet, I listen, and when clarity emerges, I decide what to do.
If you wish to follow your heart’s dreams, I would ask you to do more research on what you want in life, and to meditate so as to know if you have enough passion and patience to fulfill your dreams. The heart never gives rough answers, but the mind might misinterpret the heart’s response. So focus on your deeper self, talk to yourself in a quiet way. Meditate.
Focus on your deeper self,
talk to yourself in a quiet way. Meditate.
