1. Xi's Corruption Crackdown

    34

    Last autumn saw the conclusion of China’s most politically charged trial in decades when former rising political star Bo Xilai was sentenced to life in prison after being found guilty of “bribery, embezzlement and abuse of power”. Looming on the horizon is an even more sensational tale of official corruption that promises to relegate Bo to a lurid footnote. In pursuing former security tsar Zhou Yongkang, President Xi Jinping has given a demonstration of his power and a popular face-value commitment to cleaning house. In doing so he risks further exposing the rotten core of the ruling Communist Party and establishing a worrying precedent for powerful leaders with skeletons in their closets. Former leaders Hu Jintao and Jiang Zemin are reported to have sent Xi a warning not to overreach or do anything to endanger the Party’s capacity to rule and to stay in power.

  2. Find Someone

    477

    Find Someone who isn't afraid to admit they miss you.
    Someone Who knows that you r Not perfect,
    But treats u as if you are.
    Someone whose biggest fear is losing you.
    One who gives their heart completely.
    Someone who says I love u and means it,
    Last but not the least,
    find Someone you wouldn't mind waking up with u in the morning,
    seeing your wrinkles And your gray hair but
    still falls in love with u all over again.

    There are two things in LIFE that are very painful.
    One is when your love loves you and doesn't tell you…
    Second when your love doesn't love you and tells you.

    I bring no flowers, No cakes,
    But wishes to keep you fresh,
    Prayer to keep you healthy,
    And love to keep you smiling…

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.
