1. Like crossing through rope…

    Comment

    Sometimes you have to find the good in goodbye.
    The past is a place of reference, not a place of residence.
    Getting over the painful experience is much like crossing
    through rope end to end. You have to let go and move forward.

  2. If you are worried you get a wrinkle…

    Comment

    Shakespeare said don’t worry because if you are worried you get a wrinkle, so why don’t you
    smile and get a dimple. Always smile and be happy. ~sms

    People seldom notice old clothes if you wear a big smile. ~Lee Mildon

    Nice and warm next to the fireplace.

  3. I want to be the reason

    Comment

    Every morning the day starts
    With a beautiful sunshine
    And with melody of the birds.
    You are the reason
    Why I smile every morning
    And I want to be the reason
    For your happiness.

    ~sms

     

  4. The way I look at it…

    Comment

    Yesterday I was sad, today I am happy. Yesterday I had a problem,
    today I still have the same problem. But today I changed the way
    I look at it. ~C. JoyBell C.

  6. Many times…

    Comment

    Many times we are our worst enemy. If we could learn to conquer
    ourselves, then we will have a much easier time overcoming the obstacles
    that are in front of us. ~Stephan Labossiere

    “Life’s difficulties is a test of how much we can endure.
    Find inner strength,courage and hope to overcome the test of life.”

    ~Lailah Gifty Akita

  7. The day we leave our childhood behind…

    Comment

    “The most sophisticated people I know – inside they are all children”  ~Jim Henson

    When we are children we seldom think of the future. This innocence leaves us free to enjoy ourselves as few adults can. The day we fret about the future is the day we leave our childhood behind. ~Patrick Rothfuss

    Lovely children in my homeland, Cambodia

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

Sachjang Phnom Tbeng αžŸαž…αŸ’αž…αŸ†β€‹β€‹ αž—αŸ’αž“αŸ†αžαŸ’αž”αŸ‚αž„ 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. β€” 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. β€” 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
