Lotus Sutra

London, 27 Feb 2017 [21.31]

I am currently reading the Lotus Sutra or Saddharma Puṇḍarīka Sūtra.
Much thank you to people who have wholeheartedly passed through this sutra, and finally translated it into English which make me now be able to read it.
I have read around 2/3 of them, can't wait to finish it! The meaning is deep and not easy to understand, but also really rejoicing when we feel the true essense.
It inspires me a lot, enlighten me with joy and knowledge. I think whoever looking for life absolute meaning and highest happiness should really really read this sutra :)

Here is the download link. It's free!!

May we all become Buddha. Nammyohorengekyo.

List of movies that can make you reconsider your reality

I fancy watching mind-twisting movies. Many of them have changed the way I see this world. If you are a complicated mind like myself, perhaps you'll enjoy them as much as I do. So here is my favorite list so far:

  1. Inception (2010)
  2. Interstellar (2014)
  3. The Matrix (1999)
  4. V for Vendetta (2006)
  5. Vanilla Sky (2001)
  6. The Source Code (2011)
  7. Lucy (2014)
  8. Primer (2004)
  9. The Thirteenth Floor (1999)
  10. The Truman Show (1998)
  11. Mr Nobody (2009)
  12. Minority Report (2002)
  13. The Prestige (2006)
  14. Limitless (2011)
  15. Revolver (2005)
  16. Groundhog Day (1993)
  17. Edge of Tomorrow (2014)
  18. Shutter Island (2010)

I would update this list as time goes by. Perhaps I forgot some movies I've watched or I might just watch some more in the future.

mind temple of a PhD student

London, 1 February 2017 [13.27]
Guys Hospital

At the moment, I am sitting at my desk, trying to write down my upgrade report. There are so much information in my brain that I gathered from the reading plus some data I got from conducted experiments. All them, juggling mumbling around in random order upside down. I need to arrange them in a structured manner, reconnect all the relationships, synthesising into ideas and logical explanation.

That is me, fighting within my own mind. I can do it.
