Wesak is an important time of the year for Buddhists, like Christmas is to Christian religions. At Christmas, Christians celebrate the birth of their lord and saviour, Jesus Christ. At Wesak, Buddhists celebrate the birth, enlightenment and death (entry into…
In a very good talk by Master Lian Zhi at the Chin-Yin Temple, she posed a few questions to the disciples of the True Buddha School: All True Buddha Disciples have taken refuge in the True Buddha School. Is it…
Master Lin Zhi presented this topic after a cultivation practice last month. I thought it applicable to everything that is going on in the world (current events). I’ll be honest, it has been a difficult couple of years, because as a child of…

As a child, I was exposed to western shows like “Unsolved Mysteries” and eastern movies like “A Chinese Ghost Story” (“倩女幽魂”, 1987) which terrified me. I had no experience in anything spiritual. I continued exploring the world of fictional demons,…
