Dear brothers and sisters,
The Diamond Sutra say,
“All conditioned dharmas
are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, shadows,
like dew drops and a lightning flash:
contemplate them thus.” Continue reading Ignorance and wisdom (2)
Prayer 601
Jesus,
It’s hard
for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven.*
Why?
Perhaps because someone who is rich thinks
his wealth is real.
No, his wealth is unreal. Continue reading Prayer 601
Woman killed by fire in menstruation hut, as Nepal fights a tradition
By Bhadra Sharma and Kai Schultz
KATHMANDU, Nepal — Parbati Bogati knew what to do when her period came.
Ms. Bogati, 21, sequestered herself in an abandoned house, in keeping with a centuries-old taboo that declares menstruating women impure, officials from her area in rural western Nepal said.
As the temperature dropped below freezing on Wednesday evening, she tried to keep warm, apparently burning wood and clothing.
By the next morning, her legs were charred and she was dead.

It’s been decades since the Vietnam War ended, and the Smithsonian has never mounted a full exhibition. Until now.
(Sonny Ross for The Washington Post)
By Philip Kennicott
Art and architecture critic January 31, 2019
The Vietnam War, which tore this country apart and forever changed its politics and culture, has never been the subject of a Smithsonian exhibition. The nation managed to build a memorial in 1982 to those who died in the war, less than a decade after the fall of Saigon, and, in 2017, Americans watched an epic 18-hour PBS documentary about the war, without any substantial political controversy. The war is included within exhibitions at the National Museum of American History, is referenced in the National Museum of African American History and Culture and served as the backdrop to an anniversary exhibition about the Vietnam memorial in 2003. But it hasn’t been the subject of specific, focused curatorial reconsideration.
Love loves you
Dear brothers and sisters,
A person you love can hurt you, but Love never hurts you. Love loves you. Love loves you truly.
When you don’t feel Love loves you, when a person hurts you, although the hurt is tiny, you won’t be at peace.
When you feel Love loves you, although many persons hurt you, you are at peace. Continue reading Love loves you
On the outside looking in: A US American in Vietnam
VnExpress By Mark A. Ashwill February 7, 2019 | 11:03 am GMT+7
An ‘other’ reflects on the ways in which he and many others feel they belong, why Vietnam is home.
I have spent over 40 percent of my adult life outside of my home country, never content with having my soul controlled by geography, to paraphrase George Santayana. I carry a U.S. passport but it doesn’t define me. I am a U.S. ex-patriot and global citizen who calls Vietnam home.
It was during my first visit to Hanoi 23 years ago this month that this country – with its tragic yet inspirational millennia-long history – cast its spell on me. After moving here in 2005, I joined a select group of expats – an estimated 100,000 of them, according to official sources – who live in the midst of 97 million Vietnamese.

Giêsu ơi,
Em nguyện trở thành khí cụ bình an của Giêsu.
Đây là cách em hỗ trợ giấc mơ của Giêsu.

Mình sẽ đi cùng nhau chứ?
Bên nhau đến tận cùng?
Em biết Giêsu yêu em.
Em cũng yêu bạn, Giêsu.

What do you want to do with your life?
I’ve started considering myself not a youngster anymore but a young-at-heart mature adult. Nonetheless, starting my adulthood, I’ve realized there are so many youngsters who keep wondering that they don’t really know what they want to do with their life. So many questions like: What major should I study in college? What kind of career I should follow in the future? What skills I need to equip myself with in order to survive in this crazy world?…
Many youngsters and students have shared with me that such unanswered questions even make them anxious, stressed, and so worried about their future. Continue reading What do you want to do with your life?

Listen to Love
Dear brothers and sisters,
How can we listen to Love*?
Only an empty head and an empty heart can listen to Love.
How can we have an empty head and an empty heart?
1. Praying (the easiest way, to me).
Praying is… to pray. For example: Continue reading Listen to Love

Human trafficking of girls in particular “on the rise,” United Nations warns
BY PAMELA FALK CBS NEWS
United Nations — A new U.N. report warns “the number of human trafficking victims is on the rise” as criminal gangs and terror groups prey increasingly on women and children to make money and bolster their numbers. The 90-page Global Trafficking in Persons report says that children, who account for 30 percent of all trafficking victims, include “far more” girls than boys.

Jesus,
I love to sit down on the floor,
then have breakfast,
drink coffee
and listen to Bát Nhã Tâm Kinh with you.
Wonderful mornings.
I love you, Jesus.
Amen.
