Comments : You have obvioulsy put in a great deal of thought and
work into your webpages. Well done ! Totally comprehensive in every way.
You have certainly surfed far and wide and brought back some really useful
links . A page to be bookmarked for sure .
More Info : Maybe a forum of sorts ( a WWW version of a newsgroup ) on
your pages with a relevant weekly topic for discussion ? Contributors can
post their thought here and you could collect a whole series of
contributions ( server space permitting ). This may further the
2nd objective you have listed above ( in DharmaNet page )
( healthy exchange of ideas ).

Comments : Good, but sad to say your coordination of fonts are
badly chosen. You should use a more legible font. I'm using the most
up to date display card, yet I can't even read certain of the sentences.
Please for all sake, change it to suit everyone not just to make this
webpage an extraordinary one. You're here to share and not for personal
happiness. Sorry for being too straight forward. There are many links in
this section have much better and clearer design. Hope you could improve
on it or else....(?)

non-vegetarian ingredients. Please tell me where I can get some facts.
I wrote to Yeo Hiap Seng and they told me that Pepsi Cola does not contain
Onion or Garlic or animal derived ingredients.However a friend insist
that he got whiff that it does contain non- vegetarian ingredients. This is
rather discomforting. Your assistance in getting this cleared is much

Comments : A 22 year old guy currently experiencing stress and
diffculties upon life.Desire is the root of all worldly woes.Is harbouring
an ambition a form of desire? We can only truly experience life when we
venture,make mistakes, suffer..Let every minute lived be fruitful and
"educational"...Mediation is a way to reduce stress...

Comments : I like the buddhist music being played when the page is
opened (By the way, how do you download the music into the webpage ? Can you
share with me how you do it?). Honestly speaking, it attracted me to want to
read the other pages on your website.The background pictures and overall
layout is extremely good. The colour combination you have chosen is excellent.
Simple but yet brings out the TRANQUILITY AND SERENITY...

Comments : Sadhu Great work done! Though I was rather amused &
annoyed when the supposed links were all your creations! Anyway, your effort
is commendable. In fact, I have been looking for people who are concerned
not only for their own Buddhist societies but for Buddhism in general.
You creating a network for Buddhist societies in Singapore reflects your
unselfishness. Actually, I had a similiar inspiration some time ago. I
intended to build a network for Buddhist resources: volunteers, speakers,
talents, sponsors etc. However, I am webpage illiterate. Perhaps you could
consider this project. Sadhu !

Comments : Have believed that Buddhism is most suitable for me since young
but it was only in the recent years that I am more convinced of the religion.
This due in part to reading Buddhist views and interpretation on a variety
of topics and also because I have been diagnosed with a natural heart defect.
I think buddhism is a religion that slowly gets into one and over time I understood
why all the Zen masters are so cool when confronted. Its just hard to explain.
Too much of the buddha's statue on the wall paper! Remember it is a philosophy
and practice not worship!
