    Calendar Reflection

    In reflecting on the significance of calendars, Reverend Wongong suggests that a well-structured life is the foundation of a life well-lived. Beyond simple organization, a calendar serves as a catalyst for commitment and a poignant reminder of impermanence. As the Reverend eloquently puts it: "Each day on the calendar is not merely a square to be filled, but a field of karmic cultivation."

    Freeing Ourselves from Judgment

    In October 2018, Reverend WonGong discussed the importance of managing expectations and releasing judgmental thoughts. She encouraged us to ask, "Am I bothered by the person, or by their action?" By moving beyond dualistic thinking, we can embrace the sentiment of Buffalo Springfield: "If nobody’s right, then everybody's wrong."

    Great Loving Compassion

    With emotion and deep wisdom, Rev. WonGong reminds us that we all have the seeds of compassion and Buddhahood within us. She describes how "Buddha" and "Bodhisattva" are synonyms and their application melt away the three poisons of greed, anger, and delusion. All of this can be realized by letting our own little lights shine, no matter how small each little flame may appear to be.
