Keep On Smiling 

 
If at times you feel you want to cry.
And life seems such a trial.
Above the clouds there’s a bright blue sky 
So make your tears a smile. 

As you travel on life’s way 
With its many ups and downs 
Remember it’s quite true to say 
One smile is worth a dozen frowns. 

Among the worlds expensive things 
A smile is very cheap 
And when you give a smile away, 
You get one back to keep. 

Happiness comes at times to all 
But sadness comes unbidden 
And sometimes a few tears must fall 
Among the laughter hidden. 

So when friends have sadness on their face 
And troubles round them piled 
The world will seem a better place 
And all because you smiled.

    A smile gives a person charm. Without words I mean no harm. Join me for a walk between us we don't need to talk. Amongst the creatures great and small us humans think we are master of them all. This statement is just a ruse for them who love to abuse. For their games and play in the future some one will pay.

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.

Problems we face today
