Curiosity manifests itself in different ways, from studying exact sciences to venturing in the supernatural realm.

我已在马来西亚居住20多年了。这么多年来，马来西亚文化与风俗习惯中所蕴含的多样性令我十分欣赏，于是我想针对这个国家的丰富文化多写一些文章。 早在英国殖民马来亚以前，印度人就已开始迁移到本区域来，希望借此开拓贸易网、扩张影响力及推广他们的信仰。

In turn, the thinning Arctic ice has created new opportunities for oil companies to exploit the environment through offshore drilling. Previously, I wrote briefly about Shell’s expedition to the Arctic and strongly encouraged all my readers...

If we think carefully, we are in fact the most dangerous species on earth, hiding behind the guise of ‘mankind’ thinking that we can get away with things because we are more ‘superior’. This mindset and way...

Dear friends around the world, Having a pet is like having a child. It is our responsibility to take good care of them especially in their old age. We should not abandon them just because they are old and have become “useless” or something of a nuisance and burden. Pets should never be an...

（译文请往下阅读） (By Tsem Rinpoche) STOP DANCING WITH THE CORPSE When my time has come to leave this world, may I have spent my life cultivating my kindness, compassion, love and tolerance and have done works to have benefited others.

May I have purified my karma and therefore not take anymore negative minded misguided rebirths. If I have to take birth again, may I take birth in places where Lord Buddha’s teachings shine brightly and I live in...
