    “There’s a sunrise and a sunset every single day, and they’re absolutely free. Don’t miss so many of them.” ~ Jo Walton
    “Let every sunrise adorn your mind with the power of hope. Let it paint your life with the colors of the morning sky.” ~  Debasish Mridha

    “One grateful thought is a ray of sunshine. A hundred such thoughts paint a sunrise. A thousand will rival the glaring sky at noonday – for gratitude is light against the darkness.” ~ Richelle E. Goodrich Continue reading →

  2. To let go is to release the images and emotions

    Comment April 15, 2019

    The knowledge of the past stays with us. To let go is to release the images and emotions, the grudges and fears, the clinging’s and disappointments of the past that bind our spirit. – Jack Kornfield

  3. Friends

    Comment December 1, 2017

    A friend is someone we turn to when our spirits need a lift.
    A friend is someone we treasure for our friendship is a gift.
    A friend is someone who fills our lives with beauty, joy, and grace.
    And makes the whole world we live in a better and happier place.

    ~Jean Kyler McManus

    I love equally
    The rising sun-duty
    And the setting sun-peace

  6. Sunrise paints the sky

    Comment August 8, 2015

    Sunrise paints the sky with pinks and the sunset with peaches. Cool to warm. So is the progression from childhood to old age. ~Vera Nazarian

  7. Every moment of your daily life

    Comment May 10, 2015

    When you are a young person, you are like a young creek, and you meet many rocks, many obstacles and difficulties on your way. You hurry to get past these obstacles and get to the ocean. But as the creek moves down through the fields, it becomes larger and calmer and it can enjoy the reflection of the sky. It’s wonderful. You will arrive at the sea anyway so enjoy the journey. Enjoy the sunshine, the sunset, the moon, the birds, the trees, and the many beauties along the way. Taste every moment of your daily life. ~Thich Nhat Hanh

  8. Listen to the sunset

    39 March 20, 2013

    Listen to the sunset,
    Can you hear its quiet sigh?
    Listen, the sun is falling
    Watch it toning down the sky.

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.

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.
