The book that I'm reading now is called "Staying focus in the Age of Distraction".

The book illustrate about how the people should think and live, how to stay focus in this age of distraction. It's a good book. The best chapters I like is about the spirituality. I had a chance to read about how different people think about their spirituality in their own words.

I sometimes think about kindness and love. Why don't we Buddhists love the Buddha ? There is no words in the scripture saying that Buddha love us. It's only stated that there is a kindness of Buddha toward people. I want to love Buddha. Yes, I want to. I want to love Buddha like I love my mother. It may sound strange but that's what I want to do.

Is it a concept of Christianity ? Because sometimes I see some sentences like "Jesus loves you" and all that. Anyway I'm not converting into Christian. I just want to say I want to love Buddha.

That is the spiritual belief of mine. That's the suggestive procedure mentioned in the book that I read.

Another one thing I had a chance in the book is about the prayers. There are several kinds of prayer. The book suggests that we should not use prayers to induce our guilt. I agree with that. Sometimes self-blame and guilt bring us to nowhere rather than downward spiral thoughts.

Another one thing I noticed is the use of music in our speech and everyday words. Sometimes,especially we Burmese use tone , high and low , like music , to speak someone. Sometimes we do this when we are happy. Yes, those tones can bring happiness to the other. I tried to test out this technique on my mom and a few other people. It works ..
