1. Get into your Heart

    Comment

    Life is a mirror, it reflects your face.
    Be friendly, and all of life will reflect friendliness.

    Get out of your head and get into your heart.
    Think less, feel more. Don’t be angry at life.
    It is not life that is frustrating you,
    it is you who are not listening to life.
    ~Osho

  2. The right question

    Comment

    Never ask, “Who is my real friend?”
    Ask, “Am I a real friend to somebody?”
    That is the right question.
    Always be concerned with yourself.

  4. A few minutes of silence

    Comment

    A peaceful mind can think better, than an exhausted mind.
    Allow a few minutes of silence to your mind everyday.
    See how it shapes your life. ~SantaBanta

  5. If you are happy with everyone…

    Comment

    If everyone is happy with you, then surely you have made
    many compromises in your life. If you are happy with everyone,
    surely you have ignored many faults of others.

  6. Dog jumping on trampoline

    Comment

    Dogs (especially large ones) jumping on trampolines can cause seismic tremors and possibly even a small earthquake if allowed to go on for over 15 minutes.

    The danger comes from what is called “resonance frequency” which in lay terms is simply when you put energy into a substance or object at its resonance frequency, you force it to vibrate or resonate (forced vibration). It’s the same force at work as when marching soldiers break their cadence when crossing a suspension bridge. Source:  Fool Moon

  7. At home…

    Comment

    The right temperature of a Home is not maintained
    by Heaters and Air-conditioners. It is maintained
    by Warm Hearts and Cool Minds. ~SantaBanta

  8. Courage to me…

    Comment

    Courage to me is doing something daring, no matter how afraid, insecure, intimidated, alone, unworthy, incapable, ridiculed or whatever other paralyzing emotion you might feel. Courage is taking action…..no matter what.  So you’re afraid?  Be afraid.  Be scared silly to the point you’re trembling and nauseous, but do it anyway! ~Richelle E. Goodrich

  9. I am someone…

    Comment

    What do you mean I have to wait for someone’s approval? 
    I’m someone. I approve. So I give myself permission
    to move forward with my full support!

    ~Richelle E. Goodrich

  10. They’ve tried

    Comment

    There are far too many silent sufferers. Not because they don’t
    yearn to reach out, but because they’ve tried and found
    no one who cares. ~Richelle E. Goodrich

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.

Problems we face today

Of the many problems we face today, some are natural calamities and must be accepted and faced with equanimity. Others, however, are of our own making, created by misunderstanding, and can be corrected...
