My name is Bhikku Bodhi, and as Merta Ada mentioned yesterday, I’ve lived as a Buddhist monk now for 29 years, most of this time I’ve spent in Srilanka. In a way I have to say it’s a little unfair to me to try to evaluate this Usada II course for 2 reasons : First of all, that I didn’t really do systematically Usada I, and so this is my first experience to come into the blue to Usada II. And the other reason is that I’ve been living as a monk for 29 years. I’ve done some of these meditations for many years. I’m not completely new to them.

My name is Komang. I am not raised by my biological parents. I do not exactly know how I came to be raised by my grandparents ever since I was a newborn baby. We lived in a peaceful village. My parents are separated. I grew up alone. Until I was in high school, I often cried when I was studying alone.

During that afternoon, when my PCR swab test came out positive, various kinds of thoughts were raging inside my mind. Firstly, why is it that I still got it after properly following the health protocol. Then where did I get it from? A thought came up in my mind as to who spread this to me. How about my whole family as I have an elderly mother who is staying with me. It is undeniable that various negative thoughts appear just like that.

I'm Christina, I live in Singapore, and I want to share about my journey. About the beginning of 2017 I went to Bhutan with my sister. I was lured along because I like photos. I went there with my sister Michelle and Betty, who’s also Bali Usada assistant. Coincidentally, my sister Michelle is also in this class

My name is Felicia. I want to share about my experience practicing meditation. I started getting to know meditation around 2014. At first, it was because my father passed away. At that time, there were distractions.
