The Hat
It all started in science class and I felt pretty much in a bad mood, since I just sort of injured myself last class. One group however, was fooling around like jesters. One of the people in the group I didn’t like because of the way he responded to people. It kind of sounded annoying and immature. Then one of his friends’ hat flew to the other side of the room, coincidentally where I was. The teacher wouldn’t let him get it, so he acted they way he usually did. Then, I kind of pitied him. So out of nowhere, I picked up the hat an walked towards the table.…

paradigm shift
I am not sure whether a changing of way of thinking from ‘i’ to ‘you’ could be considered as ‘act of kindness’. But i just learned how to love, unconditionaly. And thus no fear anymore.

Welfare
First of all, I feel very grateful that I could attend the 5th Global Conference on Buddhism as one of the volunteers. I have learnt a lot from the conference. Thanks to all the Bhante and Reverend. Sadhu! Sadhu! Sadhu! I am first exposed to Buddhism through a book entitled “10 Great Disciples of Buddhaâ€Â. This book brings a lot inspiration to me. However, I learned more after I joined the Buddhist society of my university. I feel no regret for that decision. In the society, I was responsible to arrange welfare activities for two semesters. Thus, we have visited the old folks’ houses, orphanages and other welfare organizations. We…

Inspired Feeling
A student of mine passed me a brochure about the 5th Global Conference on Buddhism. I knew I had to attend this and I must not miss this great opportunity. I shared this information with a few friends and they too agreed to sign up immediately. I was looking forward to meet and listen to all the great teachers whose books I have read and given me so much joy and peace. Before the Global Conference, a friend informed me about a Metta Retreat for 3 days in Melaka. It will be conducted by Bhante Mahinda. My friend and I register immediately. It was such a wonderful experience – words…

Seeking for Good Deeds
My sister took her own life 4 1/2 years ago. I heard from the Mahayana nuns that people who took their own life will definitely go to hell and have to suffer for a long time. These people will require to receive a lot of good deeds in order to pull themselves up to the top. My sister used to make donations to some charitable organisations. In order to help my sister, I continue the act for her and trying my best to make donations within my means. I hope by doing so, she will not have to suffer and can quickly move on her life to another world. Am…
