1. A fresh beginning

    Comment

    Every morning is a fresh beginning. Every day is the world made new. Today is a new day. Today is my world made new. I have lived all my life up to this moment, to come to this day. This moment – this day – is as good as any moment in all eternity. I shall make of this day – each moment of this day – a heaven on earth. This is my day of opportunity. ~Dan Custer

  2. The people you love

    If you have only one smile in you, give it to the people you love.

  3. Hiding place for kitty

    Comment

    Senior cats start to experience something like human dementia or Alzheimer’s when they reach an old age, usually around 8. The cats wander around the house a little dazed and confused, which is why they meow constantly. If your cat is displaying these symptoms, experts say it is best to comfort it and provide an extra blanket at night. Source: BrainJet

  4. Not just a word

    Comment

    Good morning is not just a word, its an action and a belief to live the entire day well.
    Morning is the time when you set the tone for the rest of the day. Set it right! ~Fain Blake

  5. Dogs actually laugh

    Comment

    Dogs laugh! To the human ear, it sounds like an ordinary pant, but animal behavior experts have proven that dogs actually laugh! Your dog’s peripheral vision is between 180 and 270 degrees, depending on the shape of his face and the length of his nose. Visual capabilities vary by breed, but their ability to detect size, small and rapid movements and see in low levels of light make them successful hunters. While his nose is 20 times more sensitive than yours, flavor is important to your dog. Your dog’s hearing is five times better than yours. Dogs hear up to 50,000 to 65,000 cycles per second – humans, just 20,000. You want to know why he perks up long before you hear someone walking up to the door? There you have it.

  6. When you talk yourself down

    Comment

    Getting Back Up is hard when you talk yourself down.
    Frustration towards yourself, feeds itself.
    Use uplifting words to motivate yourself.

  7. Never regret failure

    Comment

    Never regret failure. Every failure has a message to be more committed, more focused and if necessary change the direction for the endeavor. Error is natural process of any endeavor, if there is some deviation knowingly or unknowingly from right course of action. Error is not to dishearten, error is there to make you more stronger in attitude and approach. Be focused and be committed and enjoy eventful life. ~Dr Anil Kr Sinha

  9. The law of love…

    Comment

    It is the law of love that rules mankind. Had violence, i.e. hate, ruled us
    we should have become extinct long ago. And yet, the tragedy of it is that
    the so-called civilized men and nations conduct themselves as if the basis
    of society was violence. ~Mohandas K. Gandhi

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.

A Handful of Leaves

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.
