1. Please realize this for yourself

    2

    As long as we remain within the confines of the thinking mind, we can’t experience the state of non-thinking. If we can’t experience non-thinking, we will not understand what our life truly is. Please realize this for yourself! Just sit. ~Taizan Maezumi

  3. The mind that lets go

    1

    The mind that lets go is a mind that is at ease. It’s a mind that’s no longer trying to “fight” reality by trying to grasp the ungraspable. ~Wildmind Meditation

  4. The bottom of your own heart

    Comment

    Why do you so earnestly seek the truth in distant places? Look for delusion and truth in the bottom of your own heart. ~Ryōkan

  5. The road to non-duality

    Comment

    One thing, all things: move among and intermingle, without distinction. To live in this realization is to be without anxiety about non-perfection. To live in this faith is the road to non-duality, because the non-dual is one with the trusting mind. ~Sengcan

  6. Knowledge and wisdom

    Comment

    Knowledge is learning something everyday. Wisdom is letting go of something everyday. ~ Unknown

  7. Just relax

    Comment

    Don’t seek, don’t search, don’t ask, don’t knock, don’t demand – relax. ~Osho

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.
