Fun fact about me.. I have fear giving speeches and talks.. I am good at Q&A but can never do a proper formal speech without the help of a teacher.. I met @susan_lankester years ago when I was panicking for a speech.. She guided me.. Came to practise with me, corrected my pronunciation, grammars and helped me to build my confidence.

I had many different criticisms about the way I spoke ..And that I am not good in speaking. I didnt feel bad or give up. I dont come from an English speaking family.. Was 10 years in Chinese school.. Speak Cantonese probably my whole life. Now my Malay is so much better with many practise at work with collaegues.

I have given myself a chance to learn.. And I have improved quite a bit. I was even writing columns in The Star Papers for 4 years..With the help of a "ghost editor" Ena who beautified my words but she had never changed my flow and stories..She let me be myself..and I didnt give up! I believe if you have a goal, you can always reach where you want to be. Eventho I am not even there yet!

Everyday I learn something new.. Everyone around me is my teacher. I have learnt a lot from many of my clients too.. I listened and I learnt. Whenever I didnt understand the words..I ask.. I am not embarrassed.. I am not shy.. That is how we can be better.

I will continue to ask.. So forgive me if I do ask you what you mean? Why? What is that? How to say ? Whats that word? and many more.. #Dontgetbored

NOTES ON CHARLOTTESVILLE:
OR, WHY WHITE PEOPLE DO NOT EXIST AS A PEOPLE

I've heard some several buddies, people I know well and care about (most of them not in comment boxes or in public) asking about the moral equivalency between the neo Nazis, white nationalists, and other white ethnostate type supporters and groups like Black Lives Matter, Antifa (short for Antifascists), and other direct action groups.

I'd like to speak to that comparison a bit and then turn to a more important part of it that I worry about. Before I get to that, I should first say that I've said enough about Trump. Honestly, the guy confuses me. He swings from a nihilistic idiot to a idiotic nihilist. His inconsistencies pile so high that you either get lost in them or you use them wholesale to try and make your point. He wins in the time and toll it takes. He also, I think, has found a very particular niche worldview for his newfound politics and is willing to, at the end of the day, embrace ANYONE willing to give him what he wants the most: affection. Never, at least to my memory, have we had a more emotionally needy president. But that's neither here nor there at the moment.

If you look at most social protests and revolutionary movements you will find a basic set of factions that don't change. They tend to spread between non violent oppositions and even less violent moderates, both winged by some type of pragmatists who are not in principle opposed to violence. Different sides will use the radicals of different parts of this division to throw away the entire argument of one side or another, and this is not an even equivalent exchange in the history of US racial tension. But I want to stay away, mostly, from broad historical claims here.

The point I am driving at is evident when we realize that the Civil Rights activists who practiced non violent acts of resistance were often lumped in with Black Panthers, or others not opposed to violence, although the two groups were ideologically fairly different. But I am not willing to say that they were so different as to not be judged as being on roughly the same side of the discussion. After all, the Civil Rights movement was not just the movement for the passage of legislation nor did it belong to the non violence of MLK Jr entirely. This is not historical. If you don't see that the US institution of slavery was a grave moral evil and that the Jim Crow laws that succeeded it were demonic in their formal and informal application, and that, as a result, those determined to end these things were in principle on the side of justice, then you really have no moral compass. Say what you will of the vast differences between MLK Jr and Malcolm X, but it is hard to argue that their social protest was off key in the tonic.

The more popular -- but equally as appropriate -- comparison these days is to Nazi Germany. (Of course, a great deal of the sentiment of the Civil Rights movement was a direct result of the effects that US wars had for those within its ranks who were not white, but that might be slightly off the mark in this case.) There is a bright and clear moral line between the Nazi ideology and its perverse Final Solution and those who sought to oppose it. This line, by the way, finds its way directly into the symbolism and rhetoric of the neo Nazi's at Charlottesville. Not only were there swastikas, there were Nazi crosses and other niche paraphernalia. There were the salutes, yes, but there were other salutations and insider ways of speaking going on. There were also the tiki torches, the modern Pepe Wal-Mart replacement for the burning torch rallies and burning crosses of the KKK. The grand knight of that sick group was standing by. They brought their own military-grade armed militia to protect those who came in homemade riot gear. This was not the making of a peaceful protest or free speech of the sort that we see the Westboro Baptists practice (not that they are emblems of public virtue, far, far from it!).

As I said earlier, if you find yourself unable to distinguish between Nazism in its original form and neo Nazis, white nationalists, and others like them and those who through what ever means they find useful (which one can disagree with in practice while still endorsing in principle) oppose them, then you are morally corrupt. If you can't quite figure out how the math works in this moral calculus, you are morally mindless and incompetent.

Of course, within any opposition to these (supposedly) easy immoral targets one can find many arguments and even passionate disavowals. But there are real moments when these lines are simply drawn and one must take a side. I have in the past even used the language of "alt left" in an entirely different usage, but I regret it deeply, now, seeing its life-cycle. I will not exchange my allergies to the ideological types of identity politics I have long opposed nor will my more specific critique of the critics settle. All that fuss gets set aside in these events. If I have to choose whether to stand next to a neo Nazi or Antifa, I'll choose the latter on pain of eternal damnation. To those who say you don't have to choose, that risk is one I am not willing to make. I would rather be a black panther than a lynch mob, as much as my truer sympathies lie somewhere else. Despite all my oppositions to modern warfare, I would pick up arms against the Nazis long before I'd "peacefully" cheer on their side. I think most people feel this way.

But something remains and this is what I worry about and even dread most: we are not fighting Nazis or lynch mobs. Most people would never go to march in Charlottesville. And even when you talk to many of the white nationalists they will say something along the lines of "I'm not racist." To them, their present politics is no longer that of the slaver or the KKK. They don't wear hoods and they don't want to own people as property anymore, it seems. They hate the Jewish people for reasons I am still not able to process in my mind, but their argument is more separatist than colonial -- so they claim.

They seem to think that the USA was founded by *their* ethnic ancestors, who hailed from Europe, gathered together in this ancient race called "White" that has recently, especially after the activism surrounding police brutality against African Americans, fallen into a disrepute that is sending the world into a globalist terror to come, in the biggest of the big governments.

Now, these conspiracy theories do not need to be true or believed to find where they hit a live nerve in a lot of people. Some people do ask why white people cannot have rallies for themselves without longing for ethic purity. Some people do think that white folks today are being washed away through interracial marriage, but many more who don't mind interracial romance still worry that white people are on the losing end of public sentiment. Lots of people who try to counter this tend to make it worse by appealing to gotcha replies about privilege or other things. I tend to find that too complex.

I recently commented to one of my friends that I don't think of myself as having very many "white" friends. Some of you might balk since many extremely intimate people in my life are, supposedly, white. And of course if we use one way of thinking about what "white" is, that is true. On the same logic, I would be, in certain real scenarios, white as well. But what I meant when I wrote to my friend was that I see my friends of European descent as from where they are. Those who don't know where they are from share with me a genealogical confusion that I can also understand.

Maybe this weirdness is partly because, on the vulgar ethnic analysis I am used to, I am neither white nor Black. And, of course, as many Africans who are neither black nor American will remind you, things become quite complex depending on what rules we are using to count the deck.

My point is this, and if you read nothing else, please read this: There is no such thing as "white people" in history. Most folks who use the expression were not allowed to use it only a few decades ago. The white supremacy of the KKK of old hated Blacks, yes, but also Mexicans, and Catholics, and Jews (of course), and atheists, and more. Depending on how you see it, whiteness was either more or less ecumenical, but just as ideologically religious.

Let me say it again: There will never be a "white ethnostate" based on European culture because the history of Europe is covered in ethnic feuds and wars. If you've never heard of a guy named Napoleon, check him out. I'm being serious. If you think of yourself as being "white" in some serious ancestral way, you're not. You are wearing a name tag your family was GIVEN at some point but never had by its own right. There are no white people in this familial sense. (Settle down critical race theorists, I am well aware of the whiteness that is real, too, but this ain't it.) There is no such thing as a white European culture or of a white heritage in that sense at all.

Again and again: The most scandalously false part of the neo Nazi mentality is as old as its previous, original half baked idea in Hitler's weak mind. The concept of a master race doesn't work for mastery of people nor does it work for figuring out who you really are. We come from places with names and languages and peoples and legacies that are concrete. Some of us lost a lot of memory at the hands of another, and others lost through the same hands. Today we tend to think that the ancestors of slaves, or indigenous peoples, or mixed-up mestizos are the ones who lack a strong identity and the rest have theirs in bold font. Not true. From your family to your soul, you don't really know who you are if you are using ideological pet words to hang the hat of your self.

I'm not a real Mexican and I'm not a real American -- and I'm no Canadian, either. My father was an orphan, so I've taken his bloodless name as my own, a Portuguese word by etymology. I of course will pass as a white guy at a Black family reunion, just as I passed as an indigenous guy today on the pier (until I produced a fishing license instead of a status card), just as I passed as an Iranian at a birthday party last week, and so on. But the real facts of who I am don't work in the abstract.

This is why if you want to find a better substitute for whiteness find a Greek Festival or an Irish Pub or a German Beer Garden or a French Restaurant. This is food and drink, and it is a set of multicultural cliches, but enjoy an Italian family dinner and tell me there is nothing about who someone is at stake there. The point is that the real identity we can and do celebrate is everywhere and it is not necessarily riddled with guilt, even if sometimes it could use some (or far less). None of it calls itself "white." None. If you are using "white" as your only name tag, then I am sorry to say that you've been fooling yourself. You don't have a people by that name. There is no such thing. Your great-great-great grandmother would mostly likely not answer to "white."

Personal history quickly becomes social, national, and regional histories and we find ourselves, again, at Charlottesville. All I can say for now about it, to my dear and beloved friends who I suspect think that they are "white," is this: We cannot have white rallies because there is no such thing as a "white" people. Black Lives Matter is not a movement for everyone who is of one dark color in the world -- it is about the US experience for those living within the legacy of slavery and Jim Crow over the past three years (some Black activist groups are critical of this aspect of BLM, by the way). If you want a "white" identity, then look to the folk expressions of it that we have and should treasure like music, food, and regional folk ways of being. Poetry, dance, dialect, accent, story. These are not safe or sanitary places -- I tend to think this story of a "white people" got made up there, too -- but they also don't pretend like people are any more or less related than they really are.

Donald Trump is a German-American man, not a white man. His whiteness is an entirely different issue that I am disinterested in getting into right now. If you wonder why white people are seen as bad sometimes, it is largely because of this false assumption: that white people exist as a people when they so manifestly do not.

【玳瑚師父佛學論】 《心中有佛》
Having The Buddha in Your Heart （English version below)

很多人對於供佛菩薩神明有很錯的理念。現代人追求一切從簡。想供佛，求這個，求那個，卻又不要給祂這個，不要給祂那個。

有人說：“心中有佛就可以了！”

心中有佛，不是一般人可以講的。佛法是什麽，你都說不上來，如何心中有佛？你心中有佛，怎麽還會講別人是非呢？你心中有佛，怎麽還會有貪、嗔、痴、妒、慢、疑呢？怎麽没有皈依，還阻止別人學佛向善呢？

更有人說：“神明應該比較大方一點，不要跟我們這些凡夫計較。”

爲什麽神明就一定要比較大方？祂能成神，又不是因爲你。你自己懶惰吝嗇，就不要怪罪在佛菩薩身上。記得，我們所做、所說、所想的一切都有鬼神在做記錄。

讓吾提醒你，佛菩薩沒有虧欠你。你身上所發生的事情，是你自己的業緣所感召。佛菩薩憐憫衆生的苦，才設方便法門，讓你能消業積福。佛菩薩根本不需要你那幾杯茶，那幾粒水果，祂們當然也不會和你計較。佛國天界所有的，遠遠遠遠超過我們人間。西方極樂世界可是金沙鋪地，隨便掉幾顆沙粒到人間，人看了呱呱大叫，叫價都已經是幾十千，幾十萬了。

家中的檀城代表了這家人的精神。檀城的旺度也決定了這家的興旺。每一個供品都有它的象徵意義。和“种瓜得瓜”的道理一樣，你每天只供一杯清水，就想得到一家平安，有可能嗎？

有人自認很誠心，就隨意地自己動手清洗神像。這是非常無禮的行爲。神的事宜要留給一個真正的師父做。你身上有業障不清淨，不能去觸碰神像，況且，你也不懂得請神送神的儀軌，只是根據自己的心情亂做一通，毫無誠意可言。最令吾啼笑皆非的是，那位“誠心”人士還問吾能不能把家中的檀城給拆了，因爲嫌痲煩。每天只供一杯水，還麻煩嗎？

已結婚的人，每天要懂得慰問伴侶：今天還好嗎？工作還可以嗎？吃飽了嗎？你把佛像請入家門，也是一樣。你可以將你的心事告訴佛菩薩，請祂們加持，但你也要懂得稱呼祂們、照顧祂們和關愛祂們。有戶家庭供奉的是阿彌陀佛，卻一直以爲是釋迦摩尼佛，也有人把所有的菩薩都當作觀世音菩薩，有人教導時，又不肯學。這樣就叫心中有佛嗎？如果一直叫錯伴侶的名字又不肯買禮物給她他，你說她他會相信你心中有她他嗎？

-------------------

Many people hold a misconception when it comes to worshiping the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Modern day people often go for simplicity. They scrimp on the offerings made yet wishing for the sky.

Some say, "It does not matter, as long as I have the Buddha in my heart."

Now, this is not something most people can say. What is the crux of Buddha's teachings? If you do not have a clue, how can the Buddha be in your heart? If you have the Buddha in your heart, why do you still talk behind people's back? Why would you still be afflicted with unwholesome traits of greed, anger, ignorance, jealousy, arrogance and doubt? If you have the Buddha in your heart, why have you not taken refuge in the Triple Gem? Why would you be discouraging others from learning the Dharma and walking the path of kindness?

Another person exclaimed to me, "The Gods should be more magnanimous and bear with us mortals!"

Why should the Gods be tolerant towards you? They ascended to the Heavens not because of you. Do not blame the Gods if you are the lazy and stingy one. Remember this, our every thought, word and action is recorded by the Gods, unseen to our naked eyes.

Let me remind you, the Buddha and Bodhisattvas owe you nothing. All that ever happened to you is a direct result of your own karmic manifestation. The Buddha and Bodhisattvas show their deep compassion to the sufferings of the sentient beings, by showing us the various ways to reduce your karmic afflictions and increase your merits. The Buddha and Bodhisattvas do not mind what your offerings are and certainly do not hanker after your meagre few cups of tea or that few pieces of fruits. These are nothing when compared to the Pure Land of Western Paradise, where the ground is paved with glittering gold and should only a few specks of the gold dust are to descend to our world, it will leave people in awe as we are talking about gold worth tens or hundreds of thousands.

The altar in a house has a huge bearing on the mental state of the occupants. The prosperity on show on the altar has a direct relation to that of the occupants. Every offering has its own symbolic essence. Just like you can only expect a watermelon when u plant a watermelon seed, why do you unrealistically expect blessings for yourself and your family when you only offer a miserable cup of plain water on your altar everyday? How would that be possible?

Some people think of themselves as devout and clean the statues of the Buddha and Bodhisattvas on their altar as and when they please. This is a very disrespectful action. Such activity should only be done by a virtuous Master of a high level of cultivation. You carry with you negative karma and in an impure state, you should not touch the statues in any way. Furthermore, with no formal knowledge of the consecration procedures, you are only conducting the rites based on your own thinking. That is a total lack of sincerity.

I was bemused when this "sincere" person came to ask me if she can dismantle her altar as she finds making a daily offering of water too tedious. How can offering only a cup of plain water daily be troublesome?

For those who are married, do you ask your spouse if he or she is doing well everyday? Or if he or she has had any issues at work? Or if he or she has eaten or not? If you have invited the Buddha and Bodhisattvas to your house, you must treat them the same. You can confide your woes in them and seek their blessings but you must also know how to address them formally, take care of them and love them. There is a family who, for many years, mistook the Amitabha Buddha statue in their altar as that of Shakyamuni Buddha. Yet another person thinks all Bodhisattva statues are the Guan Yin Bodhisattva and when corrected, he refuses to learn. How can such behaviour be having the Buddha in your heart? If you address your spouse by the wrong name or refuses to buy presents for him/her, do you think spouse will believe you when you say that he or she lives in your heart?
