1. My Dreams Are With That Sun

    98

    See that golden hue
    Burning in the west
    My dreams are with that color
    My dreams are the sun
    The sun always sets
    But never seems to rise
    That sun carries my dreams
    Slowly out of my reach
    I watch it slide away
    Leaving me behind
    The color disappears
    My dreams are with that sun
    Whenever the sun sets
    It rises in another place
    A place blessed by that light
    My dreams are hidden in that light
    At my window seat
    I watch the sun take it all away
    My dreams are with the sun
    My dreams are the sun

  2. Never take someone for granted

    93

    Never take someone for granted,
    Hold every person close to your heart
    because you might wake up one day
    and realize that you've lost a diamond
    while you were too busy collecting stones…

  3. Seeds of Love

    66

    We all have the seeds of love in us.
    We can develop this wonderful source of energy,
    nurturing the unconditional love
    that does not expect anything in return.

  4. Look To The Light

    64

    Where Do I go from here?
    Where does life start or end
    When there are so many bends?
    Can it be there is no beginning?
    No ending or between?

    Perhaps it is just becoming, existing and 
    The endlessness of being.
    Look for where the brightest light shines 
    To show your path to you 
    One with all the signs 
    That point to a better view

    Travel round the roadblocks
    Whenever they appear and remember!
    When life is clear
    Spirit is near so trust and progress
    And let go of fear.

  5. A New Dawn

    47

    This moment can be
    A New Dawn,
    A New Day….
    Forgive, Forget,
    and move on
    Ask your self;
    Do I wish to keep repeating the pattern?
    Perhaps it's time for something NEW

  6. The serenity of the day

    49

    Air is warm
    Laying down enjoying
    The serenity of the day
    Listening to sounds passing
    Wondering what they are
    Breeze passes over me
    A touch so light
    A tickle on a babies skin
    Playing with the leaves
    Creating the lazy feel
    Look up at the sky
    So blue and unchanging
    Lost in its vastness
    Wishing time would stop
    Breathing oh so lightly
    Chest hardly moves
    Relaxing
    Not a care in the world

  7. Kids Thoughts on Love

    14

    We need to learn from them

    When someone loves you,
    the way they say your name is different.
    You just know that your name
    is safe in their mouth.

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.

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...
