Change starts with you!

Once, a crow met a pigeon that was flying back home.

The pigeon asked, “Where are you flying to?”

The crow replied, “Actually I am reluctant to leave. However, since everyone dislikes my cawing sound, I have decided to leave.”

The pigeon told the crow, “Don’t waste your energy! If you don’t change your sound, you will be unwelcomed wherever you go.”

Learning point:-

All change starts from within. If you hope that everything will change for the better, then you should start by changing yourself.

一隻烏鴉在飛行的途中碰到回家的鴿子。
鴿子問：“你要飛到哪?” 烏鴉說：“其實我不想走，但大家都嫌我的叫聲不好，所以我想離開。”
鴿子告訴烏鴉：“別白費力氣了!如果你不改變聲音，飛到哪都不會受歡迎的。 　　

感悟：改變從自己開始。如果你希望一切都能變得更加美好，就從改變自己開始。

Contentment Makes for Lasting Happiness

Contentment Makes for Lasting Happiness

Leading a weary life, we will be in great pain.
Filled with contentment and gratitude, we will be happy!
The essence of life is to create the elements of happiness; the journey of life is to sing through the various sceneries.
If we reduce the burdens of life, and give up some desires, we can get around with a light pack.
A truly good life is nothing more than a harmonious family, good health, presence of both parents, not-too-weary a job, good income, and stable daily life, in wonderful tranquility.

【知足才会常乐】
如果人生活得太累, 就会痛苦不堪, 懂得知足感恩, 生活就会快乐！
生活的本质就是创造快乐元素, 生命的旅程就是一路风景一路歌, 减轻生命的包袱, 放弃一些欲望, 便能轻装上阵。
真正好的人生, 无非就是一家和睦, 身体健康, 父母双全, 工作不累, 赚钱不少, 生活安稳, 岁月静好。

What does complaint bring?

What does Complaint Bring?

Man has habit of complaining.
Yet he does not know this habit will bring lots of problems.
If a couple often complain to each other, can their conjugal love lasts forever?
If a subject complains about their boss, will the boss appreciate such a person?
The emperors and kings in the past often treat a subject who complains often coldly.
The subject may also lose his life as a result.

Complaint is the beginning of lost willpower
Complaint is the origin of breeding enemity
Complaint is the behavior of failing morality
Complaint is the cause of creating bad karma
As soon as a person has a thought to complain, he should be alert immediately.
He should know how to reflect!

抱怨会带来什么呢？

人都有抱怨的习惯。
却不知道这个习惯会给自己带来许多的麻烦。
夫妻相互抱怨，能永久恩爱吗？
下属对上司抱怨，上司会欣赏这样的人吗？
过去的帝王，对于抱怨的臣子不但冷落以对，
臣子甚至还可能招来杀身之祸。
抱怨是丧志之始
抱怨是结仇之源
抱怨是败德之行
抱怨是造业之因
一个人一旦心中有了抱怨的念头，自己应该立刻有所警觉，
要懂得回心反省。

Sakyamuni Buddha Thangka

This Sakyamuni Buddha Thangka has a unique past.

18 years ago, there was an old Tibetan artist who had his asthma cured after healing sessions by Master JinBodhi. To express his gratitude, he spent 1 year drawing this Thangka  and offered it to Master JinBodhi before he passed away.

Later, Master JinBodhi was in deep meditation when he received an inspiration to spread this blessed thangka worldwide to benefit more people and allow people to sponsor it. Even if one has a replicate copy of this thangka, it will still have the blessings that it confers.

The content of this Buddha thangka has an intricate structure. It is cohesive and harmonious, with fluent lines and rich colors. It exudes an air of magnificence. Sakyamuni Buddha's statue in gold is seated in the middle,emanating Buddha's supreme dignity, wisdom and blessing,and his complete, perfect merits and virtues.


「釋迦牟尼佛唐卡」

这幅唐卡的来历有一段特殊的因缘： 
18年前，一位西藏的老画师为了报答金菩提禅师的救命之恩，倾其毕生功力，终于在圆寂前完成了他最后的心愿，用了1年的时间精心绘制了这幅精美无比的释迦牟尼佛唐卡送给 金菩提禪師 Master JinBodhi。
后来，禅境中示现，这幅珍贵的释迦牟尼唐卡应该与更多的大众结缘，作为流通法物，以方便大家迎请供奉。因此，金菩提禅师和弟子们想尽以一切办法让这幅唐卡能够长久保存，并且让其所有的复制版也同样具有加持护佑的效果。
