With Buddha's Help



I am running with 30 computer/tablets, library shelves and books plus a playground in my sight. In Yangon with the city2surf only 3 weeks away I am having fun being motivated to train. Thanks to all who have sponsored our team to date. We have clicked up over $1,400 – thank you all. I can see those library shelves filling up and the great World Wide Wed yes that wonderful www. coming into this communities life. Oh what a Wonderful Wide World to explore it will be. Please donate now on the city2surf logo or click here. 
 The humidity knocks my socks so it is indoor training for me. 
I couldn't verify this but Shewdagon Pagoda, Yangon, Myanmar, must have the most number of Budda statues in the world.


Buddha's presence overpowers you at the spectacular Shwedagon Pagoda.
This is definitely a site for the bucket list.
EchoStars should do a meditation trip - they all look so serene.
Buddha after Buddha after Buddha. The impact of this site has to be experienced.
Through the British, war, upheaval, persecution and poverty, serenity seems to reign supreme. 

Buddha still sits with the British gone and the message is still quietly the same. To sit and be peaceful and loving of self and others. So simple. No life complications. Just find your own inner peace and all else follows. Non violence, non confrontational; just a place under the Banyan tree to sit quietly and contemplate the Divine reality of creation – of you God made man. I think Jesus might have been a Buddhist also.

Please remember to donate to our city2surf team. We have a target of $10,000 for our ever Beautiful BrightStars.
