TAO poster 2010
“This is a step in absolutely the right direction. When the Buddha was born, Asita (the sage) laughed and then he cried. He laughed because the child would become the Buddha. He cried because he won’t be there to see the Buddha. I laugh and I cry because I will not be there to see the effects of this (the movies) in the next ten years or so.” – Uncle Vijaya (Inspiring and respected Dhamma speaker)
DVDs are available now. Pristine original full DVD quality in widescreen. Get it quick!

“KNOWING ME, KNOWING YOU”

Tan Chee Wee
The above was the title of the training for BISDS staff conducted by Bro Ronnie on 14 March at BMV. The objective of the training is to gain knowledge about who we are and how we can improve some of the areas which will help us to be a more confident and productive individual.
Bro Ronnie started the session by tempting us with the menu for lunch and tea break. It was a good tactic in order to ensure everyone stayed till the end!

Right Speech ;)
- DHAMMADINNA : I am very happy to noted many changes in the BISDS. Continue the GOOD WORK.
- Kim : Dunno whether anyone noticed...but the title on the IE bar for bisds.org spells buddhist as buddist...
- Tom : According to the Chief High Priest of Malaysia K. Sri Dhammaratana Nayaka Maha Thera, the Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak will be attending the Wesak Day celebrations at the Buddhist Maha Vihara Temple in Brickfields on May 28 this year. He will be the third prime minister who will be visiting the celebrations. The other 2 prime ministers who did so were Tunku Abdul Rahman and Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.
- Tom : PM to visit temple for Wesak, renowned chef to cook vegetarian meal for PM and wife
- Tom : KUALA LUMPUR: British chef and television personality Gordon Ramsay will be in town on Friday to cook up a special vegetarian dish for Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and thousands of people visiting the Buddhist Maha Vihara in Kuala Lumpur for the Wesak Day celebration.
- Sine : ->Guest_703. Where r u going? May the Triple Gem be with u always. Join us here often. Sadhu!
- Guest_703 : BISDS even had a traditional dance group which I was part of. I have no regrets joining the dance group even though most of my other guy friends would avoid it as it was considered “unmanly”. I view it from a different perspective. I am confident with my manliness therefore I do not need to shy away from something that many regard as “feminine”. Close minded people were.
- Guest_703 : I learnt Theravadan Buddhism there. Different classes would teach different things, such as Dhamma (teachings of the Buddha), life of the Buddha, Abhidhamma (advanced Dhamma), Jataka tales (previous lives of the Buddha), the Dhammapada (“Buddhist Bible”/Holy scriptures), chanting (as well as reading romanized pali text), singing and meditation. There were even certified exams. Specialized classes were made for these exams.
- Guest_703 : Goodbye BISDS.
- bjfftx : sadhu
- Kumarajiva : Accept my work but do not accept my life as the ideal. The lotus grows from the mud. Love the lotus not the mud.
- Guest_1778 : If you wanna see a Rainbow you gotta Stand a little Rain!
- Guest_24 : Thanks u...SuiYuan...
- SuiYuan : Nice post Bro Tan !
- Guest_1778 : there r many excellent Buddhist centres in Singapore.
- Guest_368 : are there any branches in singapore?
- Buddha : Suffering exists but no sufferer can be found, there is no doer but only the deed, there is no self but only nirvana, there is no traveler but only the path (Visuddhi-Magga XVI, from the Pali Canon).
- Sine : Posting on the Youth Fellowship Games has been updated with photos from Ngiap Kim.
- Einstein : The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education.
- Guest_3591 : We would like to welcome all BISDS STAFF, TEACHERS, PARENTS and STUDENTS to come support us after school hours as we have a BISDS Team participating as well. Do drop by if you are free, it will be great to have you all there with us
- Guest_3591 : Kindly take note, that THE SCHOOL IS OPEN ON 6TH SEPTEMBER (as usual) AND ALL CLASSES (SCHOOL 1&2) ARE ON AS USUAL.
- Guest_2692 : "In the same way, monks, a monk may be ever so gentle, ever so even-tempered, ever so calm, as long as he is not touched by disagreeable aspects of speech. But it is only when disagreeable aspects of speech touch him that he can truly be known as gentle, even-tempered, & calm."
- Thich Nhat Hanh : When you look at a cloud, you think of the cloud as being. And later on when the cloud become the rain, you don’t see the cloud anymore and you say the cloud is not there. And you describe the cloud as non-being. But if you look deeply, you can see the cloud in the rain and that is why it’s impossible for a cloud to die.
- Monkey : Each life has its way, each way is a journey. And to leap to its end is like jumping from birth to death.
- Buddha : Neither fire nor wind birth nor death can erase our good deeds.
