3. When it hurts…

    Comment May 5, 2014

    When it hurts to look back,
    and you’re scared to look ahead,
    You can look beside you
    And your best friend (me) will be there.

  4. Peaceful Night

    Comment May 5, 2014

    Night Is Designed 
    to End the Worries & Fears 
    Of the Day.
    It Signifies to Leave It All To GOD 
    and Prepare for Another Day To Come.
    Have A Peaceful Night
    and A Blessed Tomorrow.

  6. Stay where you are…

    Comment May 5, 2014

    Stay where you are. Find your own Calcutta.
    ‘Find the sick, the suffering, and the lonely
    right there where you are — in your own homes
    and in your own families, in your workplaces
    and in your schools. You can find Calcutta
    all over the world, if you have the eyes to see.
    Everywhere, wherever you go, you find people
    who are unwanted, unloved, uncared for,
    just rejected by society — completely forgotten,
    completely left alone. ~Mother Teresa

  7. Because of You

    Comment May 5, 2014

    I awake each day with a smile
    And greet it with a laugh;
    The world is a treasure to me
    Because of you…

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.
