JASON CHAN’S MONTHLY MESSAGE
I have just finished leading two online retreats where we all were graced by happiness in abundance. We were each in our own homes, alone in lockdown in the middle of the pandemic. We did our Infinite Arts practices of meditation, tai chi, yoga and chi kung to raise our vibration and to connect to an inner light- the source of aliveness. We were bathed in amazing love, light and grace- which happened also to be the theme of the retreats.
As you already know, or may have suspected, the source of true happiness lies within us all, and is not dependent on ‘good’ things happening to us. However, you can cultivate the right habits and conditions that allow happiness to flow.
WELCOME THE DAY
Cultivate an inner smile as your constant companion. When you wake, the first person you may see is your reflection in the bathroom mirror. It might give you a bit of a shock if your face is all screwed up and miserable. It is saying I don’t want to wake up and face the world. I want to go back to sleep. I guess we’ve all been there.
To begin with, make a real effort to embrace life with a warm smile, until it comes naturally and you can genuinely welcome the day.
So smile! I learned that when being filmed for a tai chi video. They were early morning shoots. The photographer would be always smiling even at 6 o’clock in the morning and I noticed it made me smile too. I realised is a gift to others, so I started the practice too.
THE HAPPY RELATIONSHIP
If you are in a relationship with someone, it is much better to make it a happy one, even though there will be difficulties in any relationship. See each challenge as something to learn from, and be a ‘Happy Learner’ as A Course in Miracles describes.
Cultivate a good relationship with yourself. These days in lockdown, if you don’t like yourself, it’s best not to live with anybody, for if you can’t stand yourself, or being by yourself, probably the other person can’t stand you either!
A lot of people go into a relationship based on human need, like an escape from loneliness, a desire for security, wanting to be loved to heal our unworthiness, or to get happiness from another person. This doesn’t work over time. Start always with yourself, learning to like yourself (and changing the parts you do not like so much); look after and respect yourself, and pursue a life with meaning and purpose. You will notice that you do not need another person to fulfil your life, or make you happy. Yet you will attract into your life people possessing those same qualities as you now have.
If you have a loyal and genuine friend, you trust them. If you have a friend whose shoulder you can cry on, they will not judge you. If you need their help, they are there to comfort you. If you need their courage, they will support you all the way. If you want to confide in your friend, they will understand you and will not tell others what you told them.
Who is that friend? If you have a friend like this you are one of the luckiest people on earth. I know that, and then I don’t ask my friends to have all those qualities, but I want to live a happy life in relationships so I do my best to be that person, that friend.

All the people close to me, we all share love, life and the depth of our human potential. Starting with authenticity- if you like, our soul and our heart. This is what makes our human life so amazing, miraculous and wonderful. Without a spiritual awakening process, we are not so friendly and can even be cruel to each other.
EVERYTHING IS AN ENERGY DISPLAY
In this entire universe without exception, there is only energy. Higher vibrational energy enables you to awake more. The sun shines brightly over billions of years. What inspires the sun to shine brightly so much? Through my own observation, I realise that light of the sun is a manifestation of love itself. Hopefully as you wake in the morning, as you see the sun rising it will help you to remember where you come from. And that is unconditional love.
The human condition is never perfect, based as it is on how to survive. Sure, look after your self, your emotional equilibrium, healthy habits in diet and exercise. In my Infinite Arts training, radiant, balanced health is important for your awakening. If your body is in pain, that is your priority and your focus. Your consciousness gets trapped in pain and can not expand. If you are in pain, you’re not happy. If you’re not happy, nobody benefits. Those around you will not be happy. If you insist you have to be miserable because of something that happened to you in the past, try your best to avoid others, because they will sense you. Instead, let go of past grievances, one by one.
People pursue happiness because they are not happy at all. If you ARE happy there is no need to seek it. You don’t need what you already have.
The Infinite Arts enable you to become fulfilled and happy. These holistic practices of tai chi, chi kung and meditation cultivate a higher vibrational energy. Your vibrant energetic ecosystem creates the perfect conditions to allow your body to thrive in life using its own innate wisdom in the same way as a flower knows how to open up to enjoy the sunshine.
The quiet mind invites the heart centre to open and you notice that Love has its own intelligence, frequency and vibration. But when your mind looks at everything with doubt, it’s a completely different frequency. When you can look at life with the frequency of love, then you see a beautiful world. You are eager to wake up every single morning and to join with life.
RADIANT HAPPINESS
Radiant health comes from the radiant chi you cultivate by connecting with life-force. It sustains you and extends through you. This is the beauty of the Infinite Art. When you’ve got this, you have a certain vibration, you show confidence, balance, kindness and gentleness because you are strong inside. People who meet you feel they can trust you, and feel relaxed in your presence. Be that person to your fellow human beings.
You understand now that happiness in life comes from joining with life. So create the conditions for the body to thrive; rest, nutritious food, holistic exercise and a quiet, calm mind. Raise your energetic vibration to resonate with the energy of Love where everything becomes fresh and alive. Your potential is staggering.
This is your invitation, to become the solution, and it starts first thing in the morning when you go to the bathroom, greet yourself in the mirror with a loving smile and welcome the day.
