    A smile to start your day.
    A prayer to bless your way.
    A song to lighten your burden.
    A message to wish you good day.

  2. Power and Love

    58

    Power does not know
    What it is doing
    And
    Why it is doing.
    Love knows
    What it is doing
    And
    Why it is doing.

    ~Sri Chinmoy

  3. Loyalty, Trust and Love

    36

    We say that love demands a lot from you,
    But reality suggests it is not at all true..
    Two very simple things in love are a must,
    One is devoted loyalty and a faithful trust..
    Trust in your love make sure it is deep,
    The returns you get is for you to keep..
    The stronger the bond its harder to break,
    Has to be so when there’s so much at stake..

    When in a relation, its trust that you need,
    True belief in your love demands your heed..
    Once broken to pieces is hardly rebuilt,
    At times you have to live with the guilt..

    Here loyalty too plays an important role,
    Offers a soothing cohort to a longing soul..
    Staying with your love in joy and sorrow,
    Smiles you give and the tears you borrow..

    In a relation, loyalty brings you close,
    The faith you show, when beside you pose..
    Just one false step of treacherous mind,
    Cracks apart relations of every kind..

    Sometimes these emotions are put to test,
    Puts two hearts in a conflicting unrest..
    One reason all problems are easy to shun,
    Is trusting the loyalty of your loved one..

    A relation in itself is a bond so strong,
    Together you face all the right and wrong..
    These factors decide how long it stands,
    Here loyalty and trust walk hand in hands..

  4. Brothers and Sisters

    54

    Because we all share an identical need for love, it is possible to feel that anybody we meet, in whatever circumstances, is a brother or sister. No matter how new the face or how different the dress and behavior, there is no significant division between us and other people. It is foolish to dwell on external differences, because our basic natures are the same. ~Dalai Lama

  5. The Precious Moments

    80

    Precious are the pleasant moments…
    when the world is bright and gay…
    times when everything is rosy…
    and I welcome each new day…
    very dear are laughing hours…
    periods when eyes can’t cry…
    I wish they would live forever…
    for they keep my spirits high…
    minutes spent in love’s enchantment…
    are the moments heaven sent…
    full of tenderness and comfort…
    sparkling with wonderment…
    eventide when day is over…
    hours of contented thrills…
    listening to glad concertos…
    played by thrush and whippoorwills…
    childhood days when hearts are happy…
    without worry, void of care…
    these are sweet and blissful moments…
    priceless and beyond compare…
    peaceful hours spent in praying…
    asking for the strength to plod…
    times like these could not be better…
    talking over things with God…
    all these make for golden memories…
    that no trial or grief can sever…
    yes, they are the precious moments…
    that will glow and live forever.

  6. I Have Everything

    67

    I don’t need to see you to love you
    I only need to know you’re there;
    I don’t need to feel you
    To have you touch my heart
    I only need to know you care
    I don’t need to look into your eyes
    To believe that this is real
    I only need to understand
    What you think and feel…

    ~The Poetry Pad

     

  7. Heaven is a Wonderland

    51

    Heaven is a wonderland
    Where angels dance and play
    And laughter and happiness
    Are the music of the day

    Joy fills the clouds
    Upon which angels roam
    Everyone loves everyone
    No one ever feels alone

    Heaven is mystical, magical
    And beautiful too
    Where angels old and new
    Are watching over me and you.

    Poem title: Heaven Is
    ~The Poetry Pad

  8. Your Look

    69

    Anybody can love your looks, but it’s your personality that makes someone stay with you… ~E.C.I

  9. Your Day

    54

    Life is too short to start your day with broken pieces of yesterday, it will definitely destroy your wonderful today and ruin your great tomorrow. ~Unknown

  10. Sunset and Sunrise

    44

    I love equally
    The rising sun-duty
    And the setting sun-peace

    ~Sri Chinmoy

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

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...
