I deeply value being kind and considerate for myself, but I am also a mom, and I know that I’ve got one chance to raise my boys to be good people. Therefore I feel it is doubly important to try to be kind, courteous and considerate in all my actions – I’ve got 3 sets of eyes watching my every move. Some of the things I try to do: always say please and thank you; always greet and ask after anyone I interact with – I always greet the checkout person and bagger at my grocery, for instance; use cloth bags even if it means buying treking out to the…

I visited a Chan Meditation Center and picked up a little pamphlet, card, type thing that had 108 quotes from Venerable Master Sheng Yen. One of the quotes on it says, “By just picking up litter and refraining from littering, we are doing meritorious deeds.” I found this quote to be inspiring and empowering, and like all wise sayings or quotes that move me, I write it down on my list of quotes and tape the paper on my wall to see every day. As I was walking on the subway platform to get the 7 train, I noticed a piece of paper on floor. As I walked closer to…

I was sitting at Starbucks and a man asked for a donation to homeless children. At first I did not feel to move, and just shook my head in reply. But after thinking about it, I got up and gave him a dollar.

I am hoping to acquire a copy of Paramita for a friend of mine. She has been very sad lately, since her pet ducks were all shot by hunters. But I think she will enjoy this music.My recent act of kindness has been helping the local sangha to prepare and serve vegan meals for the general public, to promote mindful and compassionate eating.Thank you.

I am a dharma school teacher in Seremban Temple. it is hard to teach little boys and girls to do good in this era. i find it hard to drill what is good and what is bad into their brains. But it is good to teach the dharma, it makes me feel happy.

This morning I helped a homeless woman who was having trouble with her laptop. She was having trouble connecting to wireless hotspots. We first walked to the library, but I had so much trouble that I thought it was the library’s network which had given me trouble in the past too. So I asked her if she could go with me to the library at the college, but she said she didn’t have bus fare. SO I gave her $2 for bus fare and we went. I tried to connect at the college but still had trouble until I found something she had changed in her internet settings that had…

I offered introduction to the Dharma to interested friends, who are both now setting the wheel in motion 🙂

I use to go to Tze Yun Tung Temple (Prajna Guan Yin Sagely Monastery) become volunter helper. Recently, I also help to recite NAMO AMITOUFO when there is any dharma friend’s or relative passaway, which lead by our Dharma Master. I feel that this is very good. In Chinese Community, some of the people may feel that going to a deceased house or funeral place is not good & bring bad luck, I think this is superstitious. I feel that when help to recite NAMO AMITOUFO for the deceased, besides “assist” the deceased to go PURELAND by inviting AMITOUFO to come, we can also plant good seeds at PURELAND. So,…
