Bukit Centre. Gotta know him when I started dharma sharing at KBC,
and realised that he is a very talented person at heart. In fact,
there are many inmates like Barry who have accepted punishment, and
repented. I firmly believe that all beings have the heart of buddha
within them, but we are clouded by greed, anger and ignorance.
However, always repent and make sure we'll never do it again,
forgive ourselves and move on. That's something I've learnt from
the inmates who have made it to the society and became a better
person.

nice is this drawing , may the society embrace you as part of the
society as you turn over a new leaf.
the sad thing is society still have taboos or phobia employing
ex-convict ,it is largely personal factor at hand .But if everyone
just open their heart to understand humans do err ,there is
actually no lifetime condemnation for them
The yellow ribbon campaign was only met with limited success .We
hope more people can take a walk into prison and see the peaceful
nature of the convict who are in the Bodhi Path .
