If we cannot forgive others, why expect God to forgive us?

April 3, 2013

Don't be too selfish

The weak can never forgive.
Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.

~Mahatma Gandhi

    What's your perception of God? I just get mixed messages. according to us, whoever you wronged you wrong God himself.

    i expect god to forgive my mistakes , only after i have the courage to acknowledge them , and ask for forgiveness 
    i must then endeavour to ensure i do not make repeat mistakes

    It is only through crying that you learn what it's really like to laugh, only after feeling sadness can you really experience joy.

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.
