1. Homeless Hearts

    67

    Every one of us needs a home. The world needs a home. There are so many young people who are homeless. They may have a building to live in, but they are homeless in their hearts. That is why the most important practice of our time is to give each person a home. ~Thich Nhat Hanh

  2. My Religion is Very Simple

    65

    I do not preach.
    I do not pray.
    I only practice kindness and respect.
    And share my smiles with strangers.
    That simple.
    You don't need any college degree to follow my simple religion…………

  3. Do not expect any praise or reward

    42

    Do everything with a mind that lets go. Do not expect any praise or reward. If you let go a little, you will have a little peace. If you let go a lot, you will have a lot of peace. If you let go completely, you will know complete peace and freedom. Your struggles with the world will have come to an end.

  4. Be Compassionate

    38

    Sometimes we talk too much about God.
    We ask God too much for help,
    instead of learning how to help ourselves.
    But, how often do we follow God's teaching?
    This world is so miserable, because most of us
    never follow the teaching of our God.
    We are too good at attacking one another
    and at picking on each other over every little thing.
    We bother God too much, but hardly
    apply his teaching into our daily practice.

  5. Time is precious, waste it wisely

    118

    Do what makes you happy,
    be with someone who makes you smile,
    laugh as much as you breathe
    and love as long as you live.

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.

Problems we face today

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...
