1. When the sun is shining

    Comment

    Cherish those who have proven their love. It’s a lot easier for someone to be nice to you on a beautiful day when the sun is shining, but in a heavy storm is where you learn who truly cares. That’s why you need to pay attention to who was there for you when no one else was. Because the people who stood beside you through your darkest nights, are the ones worth spending your brightest days with. ~Ritu Ghatourey

  2. Squirrel is the new cat…

    Comment

    Squirrels are extremely intelligent creatures. They are known to put on elaborate bogus food burying displays to deceive onlookers. The fake burials are to trick potential thieves, such as other squirrels or birds, into thinking that they have stored their food stock there. Any observers planning on taking the stash will then focus on the bogus burial site, allowing the squirrel to bury the real stash elsewhere safely. Source: OneKind

    Comment

    Squirrels communicate with each other through various vocalisations and scent marking. They also use their tails as a signalling device, twitching it when uneasy to alert other squirrels of potential danger. Source: OneKind

  5. Who makes your life beautiful…

    Comment

    Don’t choose the beautiful in this life, choose who makes your life beautiful.
    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but attractiveness is complex, made up of both static and dynamic qualities, and both affect perceptions of attractiveness. People aren’t as beautiful as they look, as they walk or as they talk. They are only as beautiful as they love, as the care and as they share. ~Author Unknown

  6. Beauty of the heart

    Comment

    Real measure of a man is not by his beauty or face real measure of a man is beauty of his heart.   
    ~Anurag Prakash Ray

    There would always be a guy in every girl’s life, who, no matter how you see yourself, would make you believe that you too are beautiful. ~Tinku Razoria

  7. Pitcher Orchid

    Comment

    Pitcher plant is the common name for a large range of carnivorous genera including Sarracenia, Darlingtonia, Nepenthes, Cephalotus, and Heliamphora. They are very unique-looking plants and come in a wide range of colors and even shapes.

    Pitcher plants get their name from their rolled-up leaves that form tube-like edges and create a pitcher shape. The plant is able to lure and trap it’s food by producing nectar inside of their pitcher. Once the prey come to get the nectar, they slip and fall into the pitcher and often aren’t able to get out due to a cap covering the opening of the pitcher, intoxicating or anesthetic substances lining the pitcher which weaken the insects, or the slippery inside that contains water that will often eventually drown the worn-out prey.

Live & Die for Buddhism

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
