It doesn't have to be a huge deed, as along as it is a good deed underpinned by compassion and a willingness to lend a helping hand.Say Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00201826880841157206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35299379.post-25365240644118201882006-11-15T05:52:00.000-05:002006-11-15T05:52:00.000-05:00AmithabaAmithabaprojectmanagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17320450683785902194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35299379.post-52881813932635672012006-11-15T05:50:00.000-05:002006-11-15T05:50:00.000-05:00Well done!

Besides, the onlookers would have a chance to learn about the real meaning and philosophy of this practice and hopefully, the bait shop would gradually be convinced and closed shop, and open a restaurant instead. <br />Releasing lives to freedom is a traditional Buddhist practice which believes all sentient beings are equal and no one can terminate the lives of others except by nature. The main purpose of this practice is to save lives that are in immediate danger and to pray for their Enlightenment and transfer the merits to all sentient beings.projectmanagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17320450683785902194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35299379.post-78768217937574111782006-11-15T00:27:00.000-05:002006-11-15T00:27:00.000-05:00Good article.

Do the bait sellers ever ask why a bunch of small Asian ladies are buying bait? I bet they're curious! I like the inclusion of multiple pictures; there are some things that pictures can explain that words can't, or set a certain scene or mood.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
