I've got a useful tip on how to get rid of bad odors in your home. Start by identifying and managing the source of the odor. Routinely clean your home with environmentally friendly products. Also, be sure to take out the trash regularly and that your garbage bin has a tight-fitting lid. You can use activated, non-toxic charcoal pouches to absorb moisture and bad odors in dank areas like shoe closets, underneath the kitchen sink and near animal-people habitats. Set a bowl of baking soda or white vinegar on your kitchen countertop to reduce cooking odors. You can also use simmer pots to infuse your home with pleasant aromas. Just throw in spices, citrus rinds, and vanilla extract into a pot of simmering water. If you choose to use culinary ingredients, then you can also enjoy it as a hot drink.
The joke of the day just got here on time, so we can get the hilarity going. It’s entitled “Careless with Cash.”
A university professor took his wife and 10-year-old son with him on a trip across the country. After the travels ended, they took a taxi from the airport to get back home. However, upon arrival at their house, neither the professor nor his wife had the 40 dollars for the fare.
“Here, Dad, I have 40 dollars.”
“How come you have that much cash?”
“Well, Dad was awfully careless with money on our trip and nearly always left some on the table after we finished eating. So, I just picked it up.”
?!
And now we have a heartline from Yi-Ting in China:
Hallo, Respected and Beloved Master, and dear Supreme Master TV team! I have two daughters. Supreme Master TV has accompanied them while growing up. The awe of life is rooted in our hearts and the vegan lifestyle has naturally nourished every moment of our life like air, making us steadfast and tenacious! In eager anticipation, last summer, they finally got initiated under Master’s Grace.
My older daughter is a high school student. With a tight study schedule and living on campus, she barely had any time for meditation. Due to the long-term pressure of study, her headaches had become more and more serious in the past few years. She had seen many doctors but to no avail, and therefore, her rebelliousness had grown more serious, and she didn’t want to go to school. One day, she cried and told me, “Mom, I feel that my Light is dimming slowly! The flame in my heart is diminishing little by little. I don’t like this kind of feeling.” Later, we applied to the school for her to live off campus, and it was smoothly done. I picked her up from school every day and we insisted on meditating together every day. One day, she excitedly told me, “Mom, I feel my headache is getting much better!” I found that her mood was beginning to improve with no more rebelliousness and her passion for study was back!
When summing up the incident with them, I smilingly told them that it seemed my older daughter had set up a system for herself when coming down from Heaven. She curiously asked me what kind of system it was. I said, “If not meditating well, you’ll have a headache! So, you won’t regress too much!” Everyone laughed happily after hearing this! Respected and Beloved Master, thank You! Thank you all for giving us strong support and guidance so that we can walk more smoothly on our way Home! Yi-Ting from China
Perceptive Yi-Ting, It was a pleasure to read your heartline. These are such lucky daughters who are supported by their mother’s spiritual strength. We thank you for relating this experience. It holds a lesson for us all, as we, with deep gratitude, give thanks for being blessed by the unconditional Love of Master. May you and the principled Chinese people be happy in spiritual wealth. In Heaven’s Light, Supreme Master TV team
P.S. We are pleased to relay Master’s caring reply: “Nurturing Yi-Ting, it is good your daughters understand at an early age that we must all remember our Divine nature and allow our inner Master’s Wisdom to sustain us. My Love is with you and your delightful girls. May you and fair-minded China walk the noble path of peace and compassion for all beings, supported in the eternal Grace of the Divine.”
