Virtue on the Outside, Self-cultivation on the Inside

I remember Mr Kan once said, “There are many who are good at speaking, but few speak with conviction. When people speak without conviction, it is easy to call them out, and they will be labelled as liars.”

But how to speak with conviction?

Conviction comes from many aspects of our lives, from one’s words and actions to his moral cultivation and knowledge.

People who speak with conviction are courageous. They dare to dream, and they dare to make things happen.

They are proactive, goal-oriented and ambitious.

They are learned, knowledgeable and well-rounded.

They are persistent, hard working and determined.

They are disciplined, always holding themselves to high standards, and always improving.

They are cultured, respectful, and are passionate about their own culture.

They are reliable, steadfast and they keep their words.

They have a clear understanding of what they say, and they form their own opinions about everything around them.

They are experienced and often have more than one perspective on various topics and issues.

A long time ago, there was a prince who was incredibly intelligent and wise. He had a happy family, but he left the palace to live the life of an ascetic at the age of 29. At the age of 35, he attained enlightenment and established Buddhism. Finally, at the age of 80, he entered Nirvana. He is none other than Shakyamuni Buddha. The Buddha has a strong conviction, and could, therefore, influence so many people, helping them achieve wisdom and attain enlightenment.

Begin meditating with Lotus 108 Agarwood beads and take the first step towards becoming someone with conviction.

Lotus on water was founded in 2006, and it has been 11 years since the journey began. Master Yun built a place of conviction, trained staff with conviction, which made it possible for customers to gain advice and inspirations from consultants with conviction, leading to a betterment of their lives and spiritual well-being. Conviction is very much like gold. True gold fears no fire. If anything, fire only serves to prove that the gold is real.

The Sutra Incense Pot can safeguard your wishes, and strengthen your conviction.

While gold is precious, it is only valuable when someone appreciates its beauty. While fengshui is important, it is only powerful when mastered by the right person. Through embellishing his paintings with real gold, silver and copper, Master Yun expresses his thoughts and concepts. This in itself is an act of conviction.

Can you feel what Master Yun is expressing through this painting?

This piece of Exquisite jadeite is clear and luminous, so plentiful that it can stand on its own as if virtues like discipline, courage, pro-activeness, knowledge, perseverance, culture and experiences all lie within a single leaf. It is perfect to a fault, awaiting someone with conviction to pick it up.

The round leaf is filled with conviction, are you the right person for it?

What are you waiting for? You can lead a wonderful life that sparkles like gold, if you begin now.
