10 Samurai , in the movie, the peasants hired 10 skilled samurai to fend off the threat by the bandits.

I'll hire the same group of profession to fight the similar group of white collar. The only question is where to look for these 10 samurai in the modern world.

When there is will, there is always a way.

Another defensive & dividend play candidate.

I think there was error in the premium % displayed on the i3 portal. The warrant should be in discounted premium instead of 0% premium as displayed.

Taoism, if you removes all the immortals and deities that made known to you, you shall be able to see the meaning of the Oneness with Tao again.

There is need not to condemn Calvin Tan Eng. He has found his inner peace with Christianity, we shall wish him the best if it has made him a better person.

The story above is not about letting go of the past, as no harm was done in these actions. It is about letting down your self-righteousness, your adherence to dogma over compassion and what needs doing. The older monk did what needed doing without hanging on to any attraction he may have felt. Or worry about dogma. The younger monk was affected because of his own attraction, perhaps, and his youthful adherence to "rules".It is about letting things flow, not resisting them, and doing right action. No resistance, as in meditation.

A senior monk and a junior monk were traveling together. At one point, they came to a river with a strong current. As the monks were preparing to cross the river, they saw a very young and beautiful woman also attempting to cross. The young woman asked if they could help her cross to the other side.

The two monks glanced at one another because they had taken vows not to touch a woman.

Then, without a word, the older monk picked up the woman, carried her across the river, placed her gently on the other side, and carried on his 
journey.

The younger monk couldn’t believe what had just happened. After rejoining his companion, he was speechless, and an hour passed without a word between them.

Two more hours passed, then three, finally the younger monk could contain himself any longer, and blurted out “As monks, we are not permitted a woman, how could you then carry that woman on your shoulders?”

The older monk looked at him and replied, “Brother, I set her down on the other side of the river, why are you still carrying her?”

--

This simple Zen story has a beautiful message about living in the present moment. How often do we carry around past hurts, holding onto resentments when the only person we are really hurting is ourselves.

We all go through times in life when other people say things or behave in a way that is hurtful towards us. We can chose to ruminate over past actions or events, but it will ultimately weigh us down and sap our energy.

Instead we can choose to let go of what doesn’t serve us anymore and concentrate on the present moment. Until we can find a level of peace and happiness in the present circumstances of our lives, we will never be content, because ‘now’ is all we will ever have.

Gassho.

The Empty Boat by Chuang Tzu

He who rules men lives in confusion;
He who is ruled by men lives in sorrow.
Tao therefore desired
Neither to influence others
Nor to be influenced by them.
The way to get clear of confusion
And free of sorrow
Is to live with Tao
In the land of the great Void.

If a man is crossing a river
And an empty boat collides with his own skiff,
Even though he be a bad-tempered man
He will not become very angry.
But if he sees a man in the boat,
He will shout at him to steer clear.
If the shout is not heard, he will shout again,
And yet again, and begin cursing.
And all because there is somebody in the boat.
Yet if the boat were empty.
He would not be shouting, and not angry.

If you can empty your own boat
Crossing the river of the world,
No one will oppose you,
No one will seek to harm you.

The straight tree is the first to be cut down,
The spring of clear water is the first to be drained dry.
If you wish to improve your wisdom
And shame the ignorant,
To cultivate your character
And outshine others;
A light will shine around you
As if you had swallowed the sun and the moon:
You will not avoid calamity.

A wise man has said:
“He who is content with himself
Has done a worthless work.
Achievement is the beginning of failure.
Fame is beginning of disgrace.”

Who can free himself from achievement
And from fame, descend and be lost
Amid the masses of men?
He will flow like Tao, unseen,
He will go about like Life itself
With no name and no home.
Simple is he, without distinction.
To all appearances he is a fool.
His steps leave no trace. He has no power.
He achieves nothing, has no reputation.
Since he judges no one
No one judges him.
Such is the perfect man:
His boat is empty.

-Chuang Tzu

hahaha, I like you view EngineeringProfit. How old are you now ?

"Simple example........one understand and has knowledge of the whole volume of encyclopedia of the 21st century

........vs the other who has spent his childhood memorizing archaic scripts

Which one you think will have less stress and less chance of mental breakdown.......facing the current fast-changing world"

The above one contains hard truth. The religion was suppose to be simple but humans/mortal beings make it so complicated. It is always simple in the beginning until humans make it complicated to their exploitation.

the TNB bill, I think we should discuss this matter openly. Do you realize your TNB billing date is not consistent monthly? do public know what is the impact ?

The issue is like this, because the TNB tariff is based on the layer tariff, by delaying a day or 2 days when the used kWH is not advantages to TNB, they can bill the consumer at higher tariff if the bill if issue a day or 2 days later.

This is almost similar like your LHDN tax on salary range but the utility company reverse the optimization on the billing to their advantage .

Some one, please go goreng this thing at Parliament.

Majority Malaysian Chinese could not distinguish the Buddhism vs Taoism.

In fact, a lot of them are actually practicing Taoism but they declare themselves as the Buddhists.
