Mindful of the Buddha, Seeing the Buddha

《楞严经》：如果众生的心，能时时想念佛，时时忆念佛，纵然现在不能见到佛，将来必定会见到佛，因为离开佛已经不远了。
♥ 阿弥陀佛 ♥

Surangama Sutra:
If one could always remember the Buddha, mindful about the Buddha , though he might not see the Buddha now, he will definitely see Him in the future. This is because he is already not far away from the Buddha. Amituofo.

Anger & Love have no limits...

While a man was polishing his new car, his 4 yr old son picked stone and scratched lines on the side of car. In anger, the man took the child's hand & hit it many times, not realizing he was using a wrench.

At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers due to multiple fractures. When the child saw his father...with painful eyes he asked 'Dad when will my fingers grow back?' Man was so hurt and speechless. He went back to car and kicked it many times. Devastated by his own actions.. sitting in front of the car he looked at the scratches, child had written 'LOVE YOU DAD'. Next day that man committed suicide...

Anger and Love have no limits...Always remember that- Things are to be used and people are to be loved, but the problem in today's world is that, People are used and things are loved..?

Heart of Gratitude

Heart of Gratitude

A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up
a sign which said: "I am blind, please help." There were only a few coins in the
hat.

A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped
them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words.
He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.
Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the
blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, "Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?"

The man said, "I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a
different way." I wrote: "Today is a beautiful day but I cannot see it."
Both signs told people that the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said
the boy was blind. The second sign told people that they were so lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second sign was more effective?

Moral of the Story:
* Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be innovative.
Think differently and positively.
* When life gives you a 100 reasons to cry, show life that you
have 1000 reasons to smile. Face your past without regret.
Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future
without fear. Keep the faith and drop the fear.
* The most beautiful thing is to see a person smiling……And
even more beautiful is, knowing that you are the reason behind
it!
