Four short sentences

August 28, 2016

The teachings of the Buddha could be summarized in four short sentences. … [The Buddha] said …
The bad things, don’t do them.
The good things, try to do them.
Try to purify, subdue your own mind.
That is the teaching of all Buddhas.

~Thich Nhat Hanh

    Thank you for sharing. I am a buddhist, myself, but sometimes not a very good one so it is nice to be reminded of his teaching.

My Reflection

This site is a tribute to Buddhism. Buddhism has given me a tremendous inspiration to be who and where I am today. Although I came to America at a very young age, however, I never once forget who I am and where I came from. One thing I know for sure is I was born as a Buddhist, live as a Buddhist and will leave this earth as a Buddhist. I do not believe in superstition. I only believe in karma.
