1. Let your mind flow

    39

    Let your mind flow, free from attachment to your belongings, ideas, agendas, schedule, passions – your very self identity, and develop the wisdom, self-detachment, and equanimity that realizes that all things are essentially equal. Each of us is unique, but we are not especially special; we are all interconnected notes in the same cosmic symphony. We may be differently shaped clay pots, but we are all made from the same mortal clay. Develop a god’s eye view and appreciate the wisdom of clear vision. ~Lama Surya Das

  2. Every minute of the day that is given me to live

    Comment

    The source of love is deep in us and we can help others realize a lot of happiness. One word,
    one action, one thought can reduce another person’s suffering and bring that person joy.

    I promise myself that I will enjoy every minute of the day that is given me to live.

  4. The power of a touch…

    Comment

    There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down
    and lifting people up. ~John Holmes  Link to Google+

    “Too often we underestimate the power of a touch,
    a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment,
    or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential
    to turn a life around.” ~ Leo Buscaglia

  5. For a better tomorrow…

    Comment

    Be grateful that you are still alive, still kicking, and still able to fight another day,
    because not everyone was even fortunate enough to wake up and continue
    to pray for a better tomorrow. ~Unknown   Link to Google+

  8. Tranquility of mind…

    Comment

    Do not let trifles disturb your tranquility of mind.
    The little pin-pricks of daily life when dwelt upon
    and magnified, may do great damage, but if ignored
    or dismissed from thought, will disappear from inanition.

Listen to Khmer literature and Dhamma talk by His Holiness Jotannano Chuon Nath, Supreme Patriarch of Cambodia Buddhism.

Shantidevas’ Bodhisattva vows

My reflection

Should anyone wish to ridicule me and make me an object of jest and scorn why should I possibly care if I have dedicated myself to others?

Let them do as they wish with me so long as it does not harm them. May no one who encounters me ever have an insignificant contact.

Regardless whether those whom I meet respond towards me with anger or faith, may the mere fact of our meeting contribute to the fulfilment of their wishes.

May the slander, harm and all forms of abuse that anyone should direct towards me act as a cause of their enlightenment.

As a solid rock is not shaken by the wind, so the wise are not shaken by blame and praise. As a deep lake is clear and calm, so the wise become tranquil after they listened to the truth…

Good people walk on regardless of what happens to them. Good people do not babble on about their desires. Whether touched by happiness or by sorrow, the wise never appear elated or depressed. ~The Dhammapada

Hermit of Tbeng Mountain

Sachjang Phnom Tbeng សច្ចំ​​ ភ្នំត្បែង is a very long and interesting story written by Mr. Chhea Sokoan, read by Jendhamuni Sos. You can click on the links below to listen. Part 1 | Part 2

Beauty in nature

A beautiful object has no intrinsic quality that is good for the mind, nor an ugly object any intrinsic power to harm it. Beautiful and ugly are just projections of the mind. The ability to cause happiness or suffering is not a property of the outer object itself. For example, the sight of a particular individual can cause happiness to one person and suffering to another. It is the mind that attributes such qualities to the perceived object. — Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche

Nature is loved by what is best in us. The sky, the mountain, the tree, the animal, give us a delight in and for themselves. — Ralph Waldo Emerson

 

Our journey for peace
begins today and every day.
Each step is a prayer,
Each step is a meditation,
Each step will build a bridge.

—​​​ Maha Ghosananda
