Change

We can't change the past but we can shape the future 

A secret, It changes

The life has its secret...

Why do people suffer?
Because thing happens differently from what they want.
Why don't they stop wanting it?
Because they have been deeply attached with it.
Why do they get attached?
Because they do not see life as it really is, they think like this "Things will not change", "This is happiness", "This will be mine"
But which in fact, things do change in seconds, when things change it may become suffering, and they still naively think that the suffering "is mine". They failed to see the process (it changes), sometimes it is happiness, sometimes it is suffering. If we can see the process, we wouldn't think "Let it be mine" and we won't get attached to it.

How do we set ourselves free from this path of suffering then?
That is for yourself to think...
If you put energy, attention, wisdom, concentration, and confidence into investigation into things, you will be able to see the process crystal clear and be freed.

When we have seen the truth, will we be forever happy?
It will be your own choice.

PHP Framework

Thinking about creating frameworks in PHP, we only get 2 choices:

1. Either make it specific (with ease), but it will be hard to customize
2. Either make it general (with hard work), but then it will need much configuration (and the long time creating the framework)

So I think, we'll better taking the third option :D
=> Use someone's else framework

Nucleus

Water is the name for the transparent liquid in the box...

Now the transparent liquid can change itself into ice, and so now ice is its name

Therefore water is not the essence of the transparent liquid, because if it is, it cannot change

Anything that can change into something else is without essence.

Goal Reaching

Keep the goal in mind, do the action

Action is different from goal. You may not want to do the action. Achieving goal is not only body work, but also mind work. Keep the goal in mind, and let the body do the action.

What is goal ?

Is to meditate a goal? No, because we do it for gaining concentration. Is having concentration itself a goal? No, we do it for something else. We need concentration so that our mind can be used much more effectively.

1. a goal is an end
2. a goal is a result, we do not do goal, we do action
3. 
   

Think Inside the Box

Always remember,

why do you want to reach the goal?

because if you forget,

it will no longer be a goal.

Mind controls body, what controls the mind ?

Background:
I have just watch a kung-fu film

Idea:
What do we have to do to achieve such a great skill? Clearly, long regular practice. Body practice, and mind controls the body. To be able to regularly practice, we must have a strong will. The body is controlled by the mind.

Expansion:
How about mind practice? What controls the mind?

Answer:
The Buddha already has the answer: sila visuddhi, citta visuddhi, ditthi visuddhi

Develop your view towards your mind practice. How?
