1. How to make a flower fairy dress

    Comment

    Fairies come take me out of this dull world,
    For I would ride with you upon the wind,
    Run on the top of the dishevelled tide,
    And dance upon the mountains like a flame.

    ~William Butler Yeats


  2. The heart that gives thanks

    Comment

    The heart that gives thanks is a happy one, for we cannot feel thankful and unhappy at the same time.
    The more we say thanks, the more we find to be thankful for.
    And the more we find to be thankful for, the happier we become.
    We don’t give thanks because we’re happy.
    We are happy because we give thanks.

    ~Douglas Wood

  3. Like a ladle in a soup pot

    Comment

    If you listen to the Dhamma teachings but don’t practice you’re like
    a ladle in a soup pot. The ladle is in the soup pot every day,
    but it doesn’t know the taste of the soup. You must reflect and meditate.
    ~Ajahn Chah

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.
