  3. Sadness and happiness…

    Comment

    Sadness and happiness both are part of our everyday life. The world is so beautiful when you feel happiness inside you. On the other hand, life is too short for being sad. There is no point of living in a sad world. No matter what! So, don’t be sad even if it is your worst day. It’s not permanent. Everything will be OK again. Just have patient. ~Insbright

  4. Learn to quiet the mind

    2

    If we want to act wisely in the world, the first step is to learn to quiet the mind. If our actions are born from grasping or fear, they will perpetuate the problems. Only when our own minds and hearts are peaceful can we expect peace to come through the actions we take. ~ Jack Kornfield

  5. Faith and hope

    1

    Everybody in this life has their challenges and difficulties.
    That is part of our mortal test. The reason for some of these
    trials cannot be readily understood except on the basis of faith
    and hope because there is often a larger purpose which
    we do not always understand. Peace comes through hope.

    ― James E. Faust

  9. Towards perfect health

    Comment

    When we stop interfering and are wise enough to let the psycho physiological connection
    work for us instead of against us, our minds rush as quickly as possible towards perfect health.
    ~Deepak Chopra

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.
