    Your life is going to be just as easy, or just as difficult as you decide it is going to be. Learn to relax, learn to accept, learn to flow. You will be surprised at the inner peace that acceptance can bring. ~Unknown

  4. Puppies are confused…

    Comment

    When you teach a puppy the “Come” command, it is best to kneel down so that you are at their same level. At  2 month old puppy can only hold their bathroom needs for 2 hours, a 3 month old for 3 hours, and so on…Until they are 8 months old.  The muscles in their bladder are not fully developed and they need time to slowly make it stronger.  This is an important element to remember when training. Puppies will need to have a bowel movement 15 to 20 minutes after eating.

    When you want to teach your puppy to catch a ball, it is often more successful if you first use a soft fabric ball since it will be easier for them to mouth.  A puppy can begin learning commands from the very first day that you bring them home – 8 weeks old is old enough to start to learn basic commands such as “Sit” and “Come”.

  6. Trained pugs on command

    Comment

    A group of pugs is called a grumble: We love when groups of certain animals are known by unique and unusual collective names. Sometimes, even a certain breed gets its own name when in a group. A group of Pugs is called a grumble. Seems like kind of a bad-tempered nickname for such a good-natured breed. Source: Momme

  9. Kitten just wants to play

    Comment

    Holding Kittens: The best time to train a cat how to be held is when they are kittens. We easily train all of our kittens to be held upside down (like a baby) by being consistent. Everytime you pick the kitten up, hold it so that the kitten feels secure, so that it can’t fall. Holding kittens must be done the same way, every day so they will learn you won’t drop them. This is critical: you must hold them the same way, every day. Source: liftips

  10. The best time to take a deep breath

    Comment

    Realize that not all movement is progress. When stress and tension and chaos surround you, pause for a moment and relax. The best time to take a deep breath is when you don’t have time for it.  ~Melchor Lim

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.
