Sunday, March 09, 2014. The Burma Study Center is Busy! Today, Sunday March 9, 2014 is Global Day of Prayer for Burma. Yesterday, I picked up a beautiful 24 page booklet which was prepared largely by the Free Burma Rangers. I don’t normally mention publications I find at the Burma Study Center, but this one is exceptional. It contains much information, presented in factual yet hopeful light. Your electronic copy is waiting for you at. Although the posting is too late for most, I’ll include it:. Including...

Jerry Nelson's Journal: I married the same woman twice!
http://jerrynelsonjournal.blogspot.com/2013/07/i-married-same-woman-twice.html
Wednesday, July 10, 2013. I married the same woman twice! I’ve heard of people marrying the same person twice but that usually entails a divorce in the middle. I’ve done it with no divorce in the middle. Some may argue that it’s just one marriage accomplished in two different stages, by my explanation is more fun. I just realized that though I posted pictures on face book, I never wrote a blog article. Let’s back up a bit. Photo is not good, the food and fellowship was! Finally today, the 10. I married t...

Jerry Nelson's Journal: Loi Krathong and Yi Peng festivals are now
http://jerrynelsonjournal.blogspot.com/2013/11/loi-krathong-and-yi-peng-festivals-are.html
Sunday, November 17, 2013. Loi Krathong and Yi Peng festivals are now. Loi Krathong was amazing! This is the annual Thai festival where people make or buy krathong and float them in the river. It symbolizes letting go of the past and welcoming the future. Today I may get to the river and get some photo's of Krathong on the water. Young Girl (her father behind her) selling Krathong 50 baht, fair price. Thailand Display at Tae Pae Gate. Singapore Display at Tae Pae Gate. Asean Display at Tae Pae Gate.

Sunday, February 10, 2013. A Totally Different Culture. How deep are we looking? Do we see what is important? No discussion of Thailand would be possible without mentioning Buddhism. When I try and make sense out of what’s available to read and observe what is actually practiced, the subject of Buddhism becomes over whelming. For today, let’s just say that there are five precepts which constitute the minimum moral obligation of a practicing lay Buddhist. They are:. 3 abstaining from sexual misconduct.
