For one who ever honours and respects the elders,
four blessings increase – age, beauty, bliss, and power.

    It's a constant reminder that ourselves will one day want the same treatment.

    Time and experience have proved that to be wrong. The elders only deserve respect if they are honest. Buddha interpretations are taken out of context too often.

    Beautiful rain keeps the well from going dry, but there's been
    so much damage in our neighborhood.  Ready for some sunshine.

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.
