Manifestation: Will the universe really hear your prayer? | Tâm Bùi | TEDxFTU Hanoi
Appearing at the event with a topic both familiar and captivating, Tâm Bùi left an unforgettable impression at this year’s TEDx FTU Hanoi in auditorium D201. Through his talk, “Manifestation - Will the Universe Really Hear Our Prayer?”, the speaker sought to share the practicality of the Law of Attraction and how to apply it correctly.
From the perspective of a photographer, writer, and traveler who has practiced the Law of Attraction for over a decade, Tâm Bùi delivered a compelling message: cultivating mindfulness is how we gain control over our actions, words, and thoughts. Concerned about the skepticism surrounding the Law of Attraction and its misapplication, he shared three thought-provoking lessons:
1. Don't manifest what beyond our reach!
2. Practise mindfulness everyday so manifesting can happen faster!
3. Whether breakpoint can happen or not, whether the universe hear your prayer or not, lies within you.
Through this unique topic, Tâm Bùi conveyed an empowering message to the audience:
No one but you decides whether a breaking point will occur, and whether the universe will truly hear your prayer. "We don't fear movement because youth only comes once. It's never too early or too late. If you want to, start today." This is one of the profound quotes from Tâm Bùi, a photographer, travel blogger, and author of the travelog "Bụi đường tuổi trẻ"
His journeys and invaluable experiences in India, Tibet, China, and more have been memorable, offering him a myriad of emotions and a fresh perspective on life and youth. Unlike other storytellers who use words, he narrates through images. A prime example is his iconic photobook, 'Rooster, Hen & Dreamers,' which beautifully captures the everyday lives and unique perspectives of “special” families.
