1. Best friend forever…

    Comment

    Cats prefer their food at room temperature—not too hot, not too cold. Around the world, cats take a break to nap —a catnap— 425 million times a day. Cats have 24 more bones than humans.

  2. Ferret needs some socks, just like us…

    Comment

    While they might be new to pet stores, ferrets have been domesticated for over 2000 years. Despite their savage history, in general, ferrets make excellent pets. They are very intelligent, and can be trained to do all sorts of tricks. Like cats, they will use a litter box. While most members of the mustelid family prefer to live a solitary existence, coming together only for mating purposes, ferrets prefer company. They are happiest when there is at least one playmate in their cage. A group of ferrets is called a “business,” and they can be very entertaining to watch. Source: ListVerse

  3. The power to heal and transform

    Comment

    Every step we make has the power to heal and transform. Not only can we heal ourselves by our steps, but we can help the Earth and the environment.

    It’s wonderful to realize that we are all in a family, we are all children of the Earth. We should take care of each other and we should take care of our environment, and this is possible with the practice of being together as a large family. A positive change in individual awareness will bring about a positive change in the collective awareness. Protecting the planet must be given the first priority. I hope you will take the time to sit down with each other, have tea with your friends and your family, and discuss these things. Invite Bodhisattva Earth Holder to sit and collaborate with you. Then make your decision and act to save our beautiful planet. Changing your way of living will bring you a lot of joy right away and, with your first mindful breath, healing will begin.

  4. Moon shines in the night

    Comment

    Sun shines in the day, Moon shines in the night.
    But you shine in my heart every moment of my life!

    Love is like a stapler pin. It’s easy to attach but hard to detach.
    And the worst is when finally you are able to detach it, it still leaves its mark!

  5. Spiritual nourishment

    Comment

    Our sorrows and wounds are healed only when we touch them with compassion. ~Dhammapada

    Love is the only wealth that man absolutely needs. Love is the only wealth that God precisely is.
    ~Sri Chinmoy

    Sometimes you struggle so hard to feed your family one way, you forget to feed them the other way, with spiritual nourishment. Everybody needs that. ~James Brown

  6. Every moment in our life

    69

    Life is filled with the unknown and uncertainties, each day is a mystery, not knowing what the next day may bring, so we have to hold ourselves accountable for the choices we make. We need to make every moment in our life count, every second, minute, and hours. Life is precious and the people in your life that love you should be cherished and not taken for granted. Spread the love, free your mind of negativity, and insert positivity. ~Raheem Mitchell

  7. In the end

    18

    Letting something or someone go
    that has hurt you, can be the hardest thing to do,
    but in the end it can be the easiest way to free
    your mind, and spirit of the person forever.

  9. Little monkey stealing food…

    Comment

    Monkeys make up two of the three groups of simian primates,
    Old World monkeys and New World monkeys.
    The other group is the apes.

    Monkeys are most easily distinguished
    from apes by their tails. Apes have no tails.

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...
