Inner Peace

January 10, 2016

If your mind becomes firm like a rock
and no longer shakes
In a world where everything is shaking
Your mind will be your greatest friend
and suffering will not come your way.
~Buddhist poem from the Therigatha

The Buddha said, “Conquer anger by non-anger. Conquer evil by good. Conquer miserliness by liberality. Conquer a liar by truthfulness.”(Dhammapada, v. 233)

    Os ídolos deles são prata e ouro, obra das mãos do homem. Têm boca, mas não falam; têm olhos, mas não vêem; têm ouvidos, mas não ouvem; têm nariz, mas não cheiram; têm mãos, mas não apalpam; têm pés, mas não andam; nem som algum sai da sua garganta. Semelhantes a eles sejam os que fazem, e todos os que neles confiam.
    Salmos 115:4-8

    Ora, as obras da carne são manifestas, as quais são: a prostituição, a impureza, a lascívia, a idolatria, a feitiçaria, as inimizades, as contendas, os ciúmes, as iras, as facções, as dissensões, os partidos, as invejas, as bebedices, as orgias, e coisas semelhantes a estas, contra as quais vos previno, como já antes vos preveni, que os que tais coisas praticam não herdarão o reino de Deus.
    Gálatas 5:19-21

Live & Die for Buddhism

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.

A Handful of Leaves

Tipitaka: The pali canon (Readings in Theravada Buddhism). A vast body of literature in English translation the texts add up to several thousand printed pages. Most -- but not all -- of the Canon has already been published in English over the years. Although only a small fraction of these texts are available here at Access to Insight, this collection can nonetheless be a very good place to start.
