- Talking to the house flies (4/23/2021)
Two days ago, a family member was so annoyed by the house flies that flew around the kitchen. The person took out the fly smasher and wanted to kill the fly. I was doing the dishes then and when I saw what is going to happened, I commented, leave them alone, they will be gone before you knew it. I am glad the person listened to what i said, put down the smasher and walked out of the kitchen. I then passed a remark to the fly, I saved you now, if you still not going to leave, I can’t promise I can save you again. I then chanted Amitofo and delicate the merits of my chant to the fly. It left after I hv completed the delication. Subsequent days that follow, i find it strange that while washing the dish, i saw the flies n upon requesting them to go, miraculously, they did after i am done w my dish. I am not too sure they are the same flies. Or is it just a coincident. It doesn’t matter. Thank you. Amitofo

- Shit on a stick (4/8/2021)
Thank you for your dharma and music it has brought me great joy. When asked what is Buddha an enlightened master answers A piece of shit on a stick, or that’s how I remember it, that shocked me at the time and I still think about it. Seeing my community Facebook group complaining about dog poo being left all over the estate, instead of adding to the outrage, I went around with a large bag and picked up as many as I could. They were very grateful.
- Donate $2 at Rona for Children hospital (4/7/2021)
Dear all,
I just donated $2 when shopping today without the cashier’s asking. I wish this is good karma. Can’t wait to receive the album. - Cheng (4/6/2021)
I am a master student. These days there are quite a lot of homeless people around my residential area. One day when I was grabbing my breakfast in a local cafe, there was a man outside of the shop, around 30 to 40 years old, begging for food.
At first, I ignored the person, but later I realised that a breakfast probably meant more for him than for me. So, I gave up my breakfast, and invited him to pick a sandwich at his own choice.
He had a nice pair of shoes, but he hasnt shaved his beard for a few days, and his clothes were dirty. Out of curiosity, I asked why he became homeless, and he said, ‘My wife threw me out.’ While I didnt go further questioning, it was clear to me that the lockdown has certainly done something to this family. And then, he requested a hot drink, which I refused, because I didnt intend to get myself a hot drink in the first place.
Before we departed, I told him that everything will be fine. Perhaps things will not be fine for him for a while; I just wanted to spread to him a positive attitude. Next day, when I walked past the cafe, he was no longer around. Whatever happened to him next, I wish him all the best.
