May 2025_ pregnant Week 25- 29

 Week 29  

31st May 2025 ---last day of May. 

At week 29 of pregnancy, I skipped my lunch today. 

It was a bad idea, a very terribly bad idea. I was starving. 

Keep looking for food in my kitchen. 

I am gratefuly to have drink this. Chocolate cadbry drink given by my student. As I was sipping on the chocolate. My heart is so full! <3  

As a teacher, i always try to behave like a teacher, demure, elegant. but sometimes, I just cant hide it anymore when i am hungry, hahahaha 

I guess that's why my student gifted me food. Everything is about the food. and Iam so grateful and cant stop feeling amusing..thinking that i must have acting so straving in front of my students😄😄😄😄

31st May 2025 ---last day of May. 

It's a refreshing morning  with little crowded in this historical part of Kuala Lumpur. It reminds me how I once love to explore around the city. To be able to wandering around, lobserving everything around me. 

Iwas on the way to my viewing appointment. I wish that i can spend more morning exploring the city of Kuala Lumpur. the old part of KL like petaling street, chow kit. etc. 

Til then KL, i hope i will be able to explore you again. You are so nuanced with everything. 

My aunty has just completed a spine surgery. She is recuprerating at our home. She couldn't bend her body due to the surgery. As a result, that's maggot. A lot of maggot in the kitchen. and this morning  I saw 2 cockroaches in the kitchen!

I feel so pity for my aunty, we were all busy working until we only realise it now.  So my brother and me quickly  clean up. and planning to arrange for cleaner to clean up the kitchen so that she can have a clean, hygience kitchen that is free from any contamination. 

A plate of heartful wantan noodle! I am not really a wantan noodle lover, but this is a must try! It was in Desa Petaling. opening during the night time only. Come early so that you can still have a choice of siew yuk (BBQ pork) and chicken. 

My 二宝 and me made a donation to Fo Guang Vegetarian shop. Iam so proud of you, my er bao. You have done so much even before you arrive at the world!  

The beginning of May is the month of potty training for my eldest daughter.  She has shown progress in that although not very consistent 

As usual, my husband is still the 女儿奴 as usual. 

Recently trying to potty training my daughter. We both got so happy when she manage to pee in the mini WC! 

Happy mother's day to me! 11st May 2025 

Week 26 Pregnant. Craving for homemade porridge by myself. 

I treasure simple and hot porridge like this.

AI 时代儿童佛学班的方向与发展

 

A group photo with the 2 main speakers of the day. 黄先炳博士who is very wise and 刘进儿老师who is very hands on with variety of activities 

Also, would not want to forget the organiser. 董伦坤居士from Setapak Buddhist Association.  A highly professional CEO? (not sure) yet a  humble figure who just 默默的付出， 确保每个细节都办好。He didnt even introduce himself to the rest of us (participant) It's a weekend Saturday and he can choose to spend time with family and what not.  

RAYAmood  

Just found this photo is so cute not to be missed.  Yee Xuan is going to part with Le LIng soon after about 2 days of sticking together, hahaha . So cute to see children's interaction. 

They are going to part soon, and still being playful, aiyo...why so cute one.

❤️❤️ 心灯计划 ： 带动消化《四圣谛》

其实真的很开心可以分享法义上的东西。 

之前的活动不是办活动， 协调活动， 就是参与经验分享的环节。 

因为可以分享法， 我觉得自己才是真正的弘法人员。 

之前一直不敢、也不会接dharma sharing类的活动， 我一直认为自己的法义不深， 比起很多Peer之前的佛学会辅导员， 马大辅导员，他们真的很厉害， 很Metta, 事前准备的功课也很足。 比起他们， I am just a tiny little ant. 我真的没有很会带。 

但是我很希望自己能带领法义上的东西， 除了鞭策自己更精进之外， 还有就是可以做到 2500多年前， 佛陀做的事情。 

我也感谢自己愿意给自己这个机会， 虽然功夫很浅， 

但是因为有了当佛学班老师的经验， 教佛学课程， 

所以我才有底气推自己一把。 

In order to boost my confidence in delivering the dharma sharing,  I needed to do some study beforehand. THanks for 政刚老师willing to spare his time to guide me on how to deliver 四圣谛。

Dhamma Earth Metta Camp for Pregnant Mother 2.0 _ 28/2/2025 _ Day 1

 

Yeap,  I went to join this meditation camp specifically for pregnant mother. The reason I joined is because there is a meditation camp for pregnant mother. and after I joined this camp,  i got a shock, there isn't 90% of sitting meditation like the retreat i went before. 

I kind of liking this metta camp. Aims to cultivate Metta in ourselves, in our family in our heart. 

As usual, it all started with introduction to Metta Camp by Sister Mei Yan, the.. main organiser or the chairman. 

至上尼师（Sayalay Uttara）来自吉隆坡法域。

大学时期，她因对佛法的 浓厚兴趣而积极参与各类佛学活动，并在接触禅修后，深受启发，感到找 到了心灵的归属与安宁。 



毕业后，至上尼师投身佛教事务工作，担任法工十余年，期间深入参与弘 法与寺庙日常事务。在此过程中，她对佛法有了更深的体悟，并萌发出出 家的愿望。

2010年，她舍弃俗世生活，决定出家，开始专注于修行。 出家后，至上尼师依止帕奥禅师及其弟子，专心修习止观禅法，致力于自 身禅修与佛法修为的精进。她不仅在修行中不断成长，也积极将禅修的智 慧传递给他人，帮助更多人寻得内心的宁静与智慧。

Sayalay Uttara is from Dhamma Earth, Kuala Lumpur. During her university years, she developed a deep interest in the Dhamma and actively participated in various Buddhist activities. 

After being introduced to meditation, she was profoundly inspired and felt that she had found a sense of spiritual belonging and inner peace. 

 After graduating, Sayalay Uttara dedicated herself to Buddhist work, serving as a Dhamma worker for over a decade. During this time, she was deeply involved in Dhamma propagation and the daily affairs of the monastery. Through these experiences, her understanding of the Dhamma deepened, and she developed the aspiration to ordain.

 In 2010, she renounced worldly life and became Sayalay, committing herself fully to the path of practice. After ordination, Sayalay Uttara trained under Pa-Auk Sayadaw and his disciples, diligently practicing Samatha and Vipassanā meditation.

 She focused on refining her meditation practice and deepening her understanding of the Dhamma. Alongside her own spiritual growth, she actively shares the wisdom of meditation, helping others find inner peace and wisdom.

与sayalay 一起讨论 how does baby has impacted the parents and how parents wish to nurture in them.

Sayalay Sudassi guided us in the sharing   t oo. 

 

Me seriously pondering and reflecting on the topic. 

I kind of seeing my belly in that black marathon t-shirt. 😍😍

=======================

======================= Lunch =====================

Sayalay Sudassi  带领我们一起正念用餐 

只可惜我一直玩手机 😂😂😂😂， 因为用手机做工。 

sister们准备的食物很用心， 很variety 叻， 跟月子餐差不多了，



其实是说比月子餐好也说的过去， 一些细节的东西， 如水果的type都超过一个了。 

and  there were 3 pregnant mothers including me. We were served this 很有爱心的delectable ， 看得出很用心准备的午餐。 我真的很受宠若惊， 因为不但我不用自己去拿食物， 还有义工们端过来给我们， 太受宠诺惊了。 有一种何德何能， 要别人服侍我的感觉。 

吃完后也不用自己洗碗碟。 有点像在confinement center (月子中心) 因为刚生产后， 所以有人服侍的感觉。 

sister 们很用心的摆盘。。。太感动了。 

因为只有南传佛教 Theravada Tradition 才有

托钵 的culture, 所以在这里我们有供养给bhante  and sayalay的习惯。 这也是我过了好几年才有机会供养给南传法师。 

然后也很好奇平时Dhamma Earth 的人是怎么供养的（流程， 要顶礼，要贵吗？ 有什么要注意的吗？）

难得有机会供养， 我也很38的去帮忙。 

对于有机会供养Sayalay , 当然要当人而不让。 

其实这里的法工sister们对每个人都很用心， 连糖水， 汤都serve好好。 

这位sister 特地在家里煮了一些面食， 然后特地拿过来这里供养法师。 

随喜赞叹。 

Sadhu sadhu sadhu 

过后三位Pregnant mother和他们的老公就一起在课堂上跟Sayalay Sudassi 一起用餐 😊😊😊

=============Yoga===========

and the committees actually arranged time for us to get rest (sleep). I mean we literally have mattress, pillow and blanket to sleep for 45 mins like that after lunch time. Very chill i felt that I am coming for a vacation la, hahaahah.  

If I am at home, i still need to take care of my own meal,  doing household chores myself , looking after my daugter etc. 

=============Walking meditation ===========

Learning how to practise walking meditation and metta chant. 

=============Prepration for Tea break  ===========

Thank you to all the Sisters and brother to preparing this for us! Putting this image here cause i want to remember who they are! 

omg! see! the salad is so much better than Salad served anywhere else. Assortment of fruits and vege, rootbeer , with sour seasoning, and greek cheese. Yummy!
