These few days have been moments of tranquility for me... I've gone for Dhamma talks for three consecutive days... It was a very good piece of fate to have meet the Sanghas... 23 Bhikkhus came to Bodhi Vihara... Heard Ajahn Hai's preaching in Hokkien...An eye opener... I learnt a lot more in terms of the sequence of events happening during the passing down of Buddha's teachings...
There is something very important for all of us to learn... To observe our self: our frustrations, our anger, our joy, our peace at mind... Why do we feel all these and the reasons behind the ignition of these...
Life is actually a delusion... a dream... when we die, it is actually the end of a dream and the starting of another... Thus to break this wheel, it needs endless perseverance...no pilfering... i like it when Ajahn liken life to a dream...Something like William Shakespeare's liking of life to the players on stage... but dream is more of a delusion...and i prefer this description as we bring with us our consciousness after death, as we awake to yet another dream when we are reborn...
