About me

This blog is created by a Buddhist living in Singapore. He embraces the Mahayana spirit of Bodhicitta, deeply respecting all Buddhist Traditions as expressions of Kindness guiding us on the path towards human perfection ~ Buddhahood.

He likes to post stuff that he had read or think is good to share here, sometimes he adds a little comments here and there... just sometimes..

“Sariputra, if there are people who have already made the vow, who now make the vow, or who are about to make the vow, ‘I desire to be born in Amitabha’s country,’ these people, whether born in the past, now being born, or to be born in the future, all will irreversibly attain to anuttarasamyaksambodhi. Therefore, Sariputra, all good men and good women, if they are among those who have faith, should make the vow, ‘I will be born in that country.’”

~ Amitabha Sutra

When I obtain the Buddhahood, any being of the boundless and inconceivable Buddha-worlds of the ten quarters whose body if be touched by the rays of my splendour should not make his body and mind gentle and peaceful, in such a state that he is far more sublime than the gods and men, then may I not attain the enlightenment.

~ Amitabha Buddha's Thirty-Third Vow

Meditation Timer

I found this very interesting and maybe useful tool for meditation. I normally use my mobile phone as a timer, but at times I receive sms or phone calls and I get distracted. So maybe this is more helpful.

Meditation Timer (Taken from www.audiodharma.org. Please give donation support to this splendid Dharma website if you can. It hosts a huge collection of audio Dharma talks all for free.)

These audio files consist of various lengths of silence as an aid to meditation practice. A bell is rung once at the start and three times at the end.

You may download these files or listen to them in streaming audio.
