Burned body found in California fires

The flare-up prompted 18,400 new evacuation notices. San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore said it was a "reminder to everybody just how volatile this can be."

Firefighters found a badly burned body in a transient camp in Carlsbad, a north San Diego suburb that was one of the hardest hit areas by this week's fires. The city of Carlsbad said it had no information about the person who died — apparently the first fatality of the fires. Video and full story

    Having a younger sister and her family living near this area causes me great concern. I contacted her via Facebook yesterday and found that she and her husband were away visiting my youngest sister's kids in Honolulu and will be there a while longer. Her kids are keeping an eye on their home in San Diego. Praying for them.

    This is very sad. We lived in Carlsbad a few years ago, very close to all of this. In fact, this brings back very vivid memories of the 2007 fires. Hope everyone stays safe.

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.

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.
