1. Just take a breath…

    Comment

    Don’t try to force your life to be perfect. Live your life
    and discover the perfectness in everyday. Don’t stress
    about how your life will turn out. Just take a breath
    and go along for the ride. ~Unknown

  2. We all must face…

    Comment

    There will always be someone willing to hurt you,
    put you down, gossip about you, belittle your accomplishments
    and judge your soul. It is a fact that we all must face.
    However, if you realize that God is a best friend that stands
    beside you when others cast stones you will never be afraid,
    never feel worthless and never feel alone.

    ~Shannon L. Alder

  3. Smile – to activate all systems

    Comment

    Smile is a cooling system of the Heart,
    Sparking system of the eyes,
    Lighting system of the face,
    Relaxing system of the mind,
    To activate all systems,
    Keep smiling!

    You may not be perfect in many things, but many things
    can’t be perfect without you.

    The world is a great mirror.
    If reflects back to you what you are,
    If you are loving,
    If you are friendly,
    If you are helpful, the world will prove loving, friendly and helpful to you.
    The world is what you are… ~MalluBar sms

  7. Your true voice

    Comment

    Sometimes the best thing we can do for our mental health is take a break from our thinking mind. Although our ability to think is an amazing tool and source of pleasure, we do not give it a rest often enough. We can let our overheated minds cool down by focusing for a while on our hearts and their capacity for love, courage, appreciation, wisdom and connection.

    One very powerful coping method for stress is to sit quietly and allow our mind or attention to be cradled at the heart level. This is helpful because, as poet Rainer Maria Rilke says, “our heart always transcends us.” ~Jacqueline Marshall

    “Your heart’s voice is your true voice. It is easy to ignore it, for sometimes it says what we’d rather it did not – and it is so hard to risk the things we have. But what life are we living, if we don’t live by our hearts? Not a true one. And the person living it is not the true you.” ~ Susan Fletcher

  8. Flowering of Love…

    Comment

    My country is the world, and my religion is to do good. ~Thomas Paine

    Compassion is the flowering. And when compassion happens to one person, millions are healed. Whosoever comes around him is healed. Compassion is therapeutic.

    You can also call compassion prayerfulness. You can also call compassion meditation. The highest form of energy is compassion. The word compassion is beautiful: half of it is passion – somehow passion has become so refined that it is no more like passion. It has become compassion.

    In compassion, you simply give. In love, you are thankful because the other has given something to you. In compassion, you are thankful because the other has taken something from you; you are thankful because the other has not rejected you. You had come with energy to give, you had come with many flowers to share, and the other allowed you, the other was receptive. You are thankful because the other was receptive. ~ Osho

Live & Die for Buddhism

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.

A Handful of Leaves

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.

Of the many problems we face today, some are natural calamities and must be accepted and faced with equanimity. Others, however, are of our own making, created by misunderstanding, and can be corrected...
