First One Must Change. I First Watch

I Describe Myself As A Simple Buddhist Monk. No More, No Less.

I Don't Want To Be A Prisoner In A Palace, Living In Such A Constricted Way - Too Tight!

From The Scientific View, The Theory Of Karma May Be A Metaphysical Assumption -- But It Is No More So Than The Assumption That All Of Life Is Material And Originated Out Of Pure Chance

In Dealing With Those Who Are Undergoing Great Suffering, If You Feel "burnout" Setting In, If You Feel Demoralized And Exhausted, It Is Best, For The Sake Of Everyone, To Withdraw And Restore Yourself. The Point Is To Have A Long-term Perspective.

The Most Important Thing Is Practice In Daily Life; Then You Can Know Gradually The True Value Of Religion. Doctrine Is Not Meant For Mere Knowledge, But For The Improvement Of Our Minds. In Order To Do That, It Must Be Part Of Our Life. If You Put Religious Doctrine In A Building And When You Leave The Building Depart From The Practices, You Cannot Gain Its Value.
