The whispering branch

Each kind of tree is a sort of musical instrument: the apple a cello, the old oak a bass viol, the cypress a harp, the willow a flute, the young pine a muted violin. Put your ear close to the whispering branch and you may catch what it is saying. ~Guy Murchie, Jr.

    +Annabelle… No my dad was a special man. He demanded we respect his girl, our mother. Today I respect my girl the same way… something I see many young males don't do… teach your boys what's right and wrong men.

    thanks Craig, when I read your message I was not sure if he was a good disciplinarian as a good father must be or abusive….thanks for clarifying that…..my dad too was a true disciplinarian. Right and wrong were taught.

    Jendhamuni, Somehow this tree swaying in the wind, the overcast clouds, and the moist grass remind me of pre-monsoon weather in India. I see this scenery during June-month here. Beautiful Picture.

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.
