About Me:
Most importantly, I am a husband, father, brother, son, and time-wise in that order.

This site was created through the inspiration of the book Buddha or Bust where I was introduced to some of the Buddha's teachings and the idea of socially engaged Buddhism. The goal of this site is to bridge our interconnectedness using the web in hopes that the sharing of knowledge and ideas will facilitate changes in the world.

These days I was suffering from some anguish . But OH TEIK BIN's "Forgiving others" has helped me to remove my suffreings totally. Bravo !

By the way I wish to be a volunteer for social service, may be within India or south asian countries. I will manage my own expenses. Pl. give me a break.

Thank you so much for your kind comment. Yes, I was there in Antarctica during December 1998 to March 2000. It is really a devine place which allows one to reach and feel close to the Amighty. I read a nice comment on colour of mind. Now I add "Your mind is like a garden. Tend it well by filling it with positive, encouraging and faith-building thoughts throughout the day".

Thanks! It took a while to get going here. I Enjoyed meeting you at the retreat, and the discussions on engaged Buddhism and social justice. Everything is going well, the semester is starting at the Institute of Buddhist Studies. I'll mention the network whenever I get a chance!

Thank you so much for the welcome. Of course i shall share my articles here too. It is actually a rewardin feeling to write here as it is writing in direct communication, whereas on the websites i author it is just standing there waitiing for anonymous people to visit and read. It is so interactive here.
I was delighted to find this NINg.com domain as it has a very fair policy and a very good way of creating networks and connecting with other networks. also that it has blog, video and forums available in our self created networks is great.. lots of freedom.
Hope to be adding lots of posts as of now
