About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to teach young children and adults meditation and positive thinking

ABOUT ME

My name is Darlington, i am a Black African from Nigeria who speak fluent english
I'm an easygoing, open minded, optimistic person with a positive out look on life. I love to have fun, try new things and i absolutely love to meet new people. I am a very spiritual person and presently a national coordinator for the World Community for Christian Meditation www.wccm.org and the Buddhist Christian Network www.buddhist-christian.org
Interest : religion, spirituality, travel, meditation, prayer, photography, animals, reading, swiming, working in the woods, computers. I love travelling and to be outdoors. As soon as I have meadows, forests, mountains, lakes or the sea around me I'm completely happy. That's why I'm into walking, hiking, cycling, sailing (especially cat sailing), and many other outdoor sports. In winter or when the weather is bad I also like indoor sports.

My prefered intellectual occupations are reading, to explore the unknown, and having profound conversations with old and new friends.

In the evenings I like to cook a good dinner, do meditation and prayer meet friends, and send out positive thoughts to the world..

PHILOSOPHY

Riches, mediocrity and poverty begin in the mind.

Reality is the mirror of your thoughts. Choose well what you put in front of the mirror.

The mind is the decisive factor in your life, but who decides for the mind?

A positive attitude brings strength, energy and initiative.

To think negatively is like taking a weakening drug.

Positive thoughts are not enough. There have to be positive feelings and positive actions.

When you say, "I can't" and expect the worst, you become weak and unhappy.

When you say "I can", and expect success, you fill yourself with confidence and happiness.

Being resolute, decisive and courageous in small matters and in big ones is being positive.

You can close the windows and darken your room, and you can open the windows and let light in. It is a matter of choice. Your mind is your room. Do you darken it or do you fill it with light?

Meditation and concentration are the way to a life of serenity.

Your mind is your instrument. Learn to be its master and not its slave.

When calm your mind and your senses, you become conscious of your always-present inner Self.

The attention tends to wander. It tends to flow towards whatever attracts it. Tie your attention with resolve and intent, and do not let it drag you where it wants to.

Motivation brings excitement, happiness, positive expectations and energy.

Motivation overcomes laziness, procrastination, fear and indecisiveness.

Motivation is the electrical power that activates the engine of success.

Getting motivated is like switching the engine of a car and starting to move.

Getting motivated is one of the most important steps toward getting what you want.

A persistent strong desire pushes your goal into manifestation.

Success requires that you have a motivating inner power to push you forward.

Happiness is within you. When you stop the chatter of the mind and expel your worries and fears you find out that happiness surfaces from within you.

Happiness is not something far away and unattainable, and its manifestation does not depend on circumstances.

Happiness is one of the most important treasures. It is within your soul. All you have to do, is dig it out and enjoy it.

There is no need to search for happiness or to create it. There is no need to undergo all kinds of external experiences in order to enjoy it. It is always here, deep within your soul.

Happiness is always here, but covered by thoughts, desires and fears.

Happiness is experienced after a problem has been solved, a fear has disappeared or after realizing a desire. At this moment the mind is released from it fears, worries and desires and becomes quiet, letting the happiness emerge.

Look at the happy side of life, and you will develop the happiness habit.

Learn to laugh. This will make you feel better.

Focusing your mind on everything that you do, increases your control over your mind, which makes it easier for the inner joy to manifest.

Your inner nature is bliss and joy. Clean your mind of thoughts and worries and you will find this treasure within you.

When you wake up from deep sleep you feel happy. This is because the mind was quiet. If you are able to make your mind quiet during your waking hours, you will experience happiness.
