FIRE & SMOKE

It is better to perform one's own duties imperfectly than to master the duties of another. By fulfilling the obligations he is born with, a person never comes to grief. No one should abandon duties because he sees defects in them. Every action, every activity is surrounded by defects as a fire is surrounded by smoke.

2010-The Year of the TIGER.

The tiger replaces the lion as King of the Beasts in cultures of eastern Asia, representing royalty, fearlessness and wrath. Its forehead has a marking which resembles the Chinese character, which means "king".

Of great importance in Chinese myth and culture, the tiger is one of the twelve Chinese zodiac animals. Also in various Chinese art and martial art, the tiger is depicted as an earth symbol and equal rival of the Chinese dragon-the two representing matter ans spirit respectively. In fact, the Southern Chinese martial art Hung Ga is based on the movements of the Tiger and the Crane. In Imperial China, a tiger was the personification of war and often represented the highest army general.

In Buddhism, it is also one of the Three Senseless Creatures, symbolising anger, with the monkey representing greed and the deer lovesickness.

The widely worshipped Hindu goddess Durga, an aspect of Devi-Parvati, is a ten-armed warrior who rides the tigress, Damon into battle. In southern India, the god Ayaippa was associated with a Tiger.

The Tiger is the national animal of Bangladesh, Nepal, India, Malaysia, North Korea and South Korea.

LET THE 'SAINTS' SPEAK!

We often go about our everyday lives thinking that we can judge every single thing but the question on my mind is that, what does that matter so much to people? When it comes to judging others, we should always ask the most important question, why? It is strange that people are very quick in saying "...you're right", when actually they are at fault.

What do they know about any person in this world? Unless if you were born in the same family or married the person, that is totally a different question but it is funny when people go about criticising others when they can't even see the wide picture. I guess this is what it means by "narrow minded".

I am trying very hard to understand the attitude of the people around me and everyday it is getting interesting. Today, I met up with a friend and as we were talking about things under the cloud, she brought up a comment made in SMK Convent by a teacher over there and I was surprised because this teacher who hardly knows me can make a very harsh comment. I would like very much to say something in her face but if I would to do that, then I am as low as her. As I mentioned in my previous post, people talk due to their low self-esteem. They have no one so they pick on others.

So the moral of the story is, don't talk if you don't know anything because what goes around comes around. Can't wait for that moment to happen.
