  2. CNN anchorman asks: Could a 'black hole' explain MH370 mystery?

    6

    Nature abhors a vacuum, and as days pass, 'supernatural' theories offered as filler
    CNN's Don Lemon has been entertaining all sorts of theories about the missing Malaysian Airlines Flight 370, including the chance something "supernatural" happened, but on Wednesday night, he actually asked panelists about the possibility a black hole was involved. Lemon brought this up along with other "conspiracy theories" people have been floating on Twitter, including people noting the eerie parallels to Lost and The Twilight Zone, and wondered, "is it preposterous" to consider a black hole as a possibility?

  3. The fate of the elderly in my country, Cambodia

    GRANDMA IS SO POOR. SHE HAS NOTHING TO EAT
    The kind of picture that breaks my heart…

    Cambodia is still one of the few countries in SE Asia whose state does not cater for, or formally recognise the needs of its elderly – the aged population. Reeling from the destructive legacy of the Khmer Rouge regime in the seventies where the nuclear family unit had been deliberately split apart to deny the family any influence it could exercise as a main rival institution to the state, this social and core human fabric has been coming under attack and grievously and violently violated further ever since under the current neo-KR regime as a consequence of the state's failure to redistribute 'generated' economic wealth equitably among its citizens, or rebuild a sound economic base capable of meeting demands of its domestic labour market, particularly, among the youths whose search for job opportunities has been forcing them to venture overseas leaving behind dependent family members such as this elderly woman to fence for themselves in the process… ~School of Vice, KI Media

  6. Grandma from my homeland, Cambodia

    54

    So sad to see an elder this old struggles to survive…The day people purchase her items, is the day she called, 'lucky'. The day she will have money for food. That's why we should not complain much, but learn to appreciate with what we have in front of us. There are many unfortunate people out there who need our helps, our attention…

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.
