1. Wishing you a Peaceful Weekend

    90

    It's another day.
    It's another beautiful day!
    Life is a matter of perspective.
    No matter what the weather,
    no matter what the situation we are in,
    if we have the right perspective in life,
    life will always be beautiful!

  2. Live Life Happy

    33

    There are certain people who no longer belong in your life no matter how much you want them to. You know who they are. Let them go. ~Unknown

  3. Don’t wait until tomorrow

    55

    I am only one, but still I am one.
    I cannot do everything,
    but still I can do something;
    and because I cannot do everything,
    I will not refuse to do something I can do.

    ~ Edward Everett Hale

     

  4. Be Like a Glorious Lotus Flower

    46

    The Sacred Lotus flower grows in the deep mud, far away from the sun. But, sooner or later, it reaches the light becoming the most beautiful flower ever. The Sacred Lotus flower is regarded in many different cultures, especially in eastern religions, as a symbol of purity, enlightenment, self-regeneration and rebirth. Its characteristics are a perfect analogy for the human condition: even when its roots are in the dirtiest waters, the Lotus produces the most beautiful flower.

  5. Share your Dreams

    33

    In most cases, negative comments from others are their own fears or insecurity being projected onto you. If you allow them to, these doubts will seep in and throw you off your path. It is important to have positivity around you during this time. Only share your dream with people that you know will support your endeavors. ~Allison Maslan

  6. Putting negative feelings aside

    39

    Let negative thinking, habits, relationships,
    conversations, and plans die now.
    Don’t carry them into your future.

    ~Thema Davis

  7. Good Night!

    38

    Peaceful dream, if there is any,
    otherwise don't dream at all.
    A sleep without a dream is better,
    Your mind will get to rest peacefully,
    just like the beautiful body, resting at night.

    PS: I caught up with many projects this week,
    so I will have extra time to visit you tomorrow.

  8. No Connnection

    28

    More snow more shovels…
    My internet connection was down all night.

  9. Most Beautiful  Fragrance

    63

    The fragrance of sandalwood and rosebay
    Does not travel far.
    But the fragrance of virtue
    Rises to the heavens.

    ~Buddha
    Dhammapada

  10. Off to my Dreamland

    76

    I am not tired, but my eyes are.
    So I’m gonna go to bed very early tonight,
    before the eyes will strike back at me.
    Good night. Sweet dream.
    Wake up with a smile,
    unless crying is better for you,
    then go for it!

    I will miss you very much,
    more than you ever miss me.
    See you tomorrow!

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
