1. Everything is Perfect

    61

    When there's that special person
    You just can't get off your mind
    If you look in your heart
    That person you will find
     
    No matter how much they hurt you
    They still mean so much
    Because you feel as though you'd die
    Without there gentle touch
     
    And when your with them
    You feel so free
    There is no doubt in your mind
    That this is how it's supposed to be
     
    You feel so happy
    With them by your side
    You step out of the shadows
    For there is no more reason to hide
     
    You walk out of the darkness
    And into the light
    They make your life happy
    They make everything right
     
    They take away your confusion
    They take away your pain
    They show you the bright side
    And all there is to gain
     
    Life is worth living
    Your smile won't go away
    Everything is perfect
    In every single way
     
    You know what your feeling
    And you look up above
    Everything is beautiful
    Because your in love

  2. Happy Khmer New Year

    63

    Happy New Year to all my Cambodian friends from
    around the world. I have nothing to say to you, besides this:

    Treat and respect each and every single day just the same. Monday should not be more special than Tuesday. Just as though you have seven children, and you should love them and treat them equally as a good parent. No such thing as Monday is a lucky day, Tuesday is a bad luck day or anything like that, in Buddhism. We must master our words, our thoughts and never allow our body to do harm every breath we take. This is the real lucky day! Whatever happened in the past, we cannot change. However we can change our future by living our lives wisely in this present moment. The present is the mother of the future. Therefore, we must cultivate our compassion so we can be a good parent for our future children. Just like His Holiness Dalai Lama said, “Compassion compels us to reach out to all living beings, including our so-called enemies, those people who upset or hurt us. Irrespective of what they do to you, if you remember that all beings like you are only trying to be happy, you will find it much easier to develop compassion towards them.”

    May all beings live in Happiness and Peace.

    Your Friend,
    Jendhamuni

  4. Why people are too serious?

    52

    Most of my high school friends
    look 20 years older than me because…..
    THEY ARE TOO SERIOUS……
    Then they don't want to hang out with me
    because people think I am their daughter :))))

  5. Stay Classy

    100

    it's okay for a girl to fall in deep love with a guy,
    but she must stay classy, not cheap or trashy.

My reflection

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
