Buddha and the Robot - Time Lapse Amateur Cartoon



I like this one - a lot. It's a fine example of a gifted amateur letting his imagination and talents free rein and showcasing the finished product via You Tube. It reminds me of the sort of animations that used to feature in the BBC children's programme Vision On in the 1960s and would have taken a whole plethora of 60s film equipment to make it happen. Not now a small digital camera and imagination , a computer and an internet connection and you're cooking.

If you can, help others; if you cannot do that, at least do not harm them. Dalai Lama

  3. Dear brothers and sisters who love the Dharma
    Let me tell you the history about SANNAK SAMBODHI, TAMAN DESA JAYA, KEPONG, KUALA LUMPUR. Last time we were members of the temple but now we are very far apart because now the committee members are very proud of the activities or duties of the temple.
    On the other hand, the current president of the temple is YIP KUM FOOK and son YIP JIUN HANN. His son always said to the devotees: THIS TEMPLE IS MY FATHER'S TEMPLE. Or is it my father's property…we are silent because We know this temple very well where it came from...
    Now the members of the temple committees are their only group. Others cannot join as members and use Myanmar monks only for service and blessing. Only Myanmar monks are very smart (All monks from Myanmar have the rank of DR or PH. D), but the disciples(devotees) here are very confused because the disciples here have never heard of that name(titles).
    If we understand the teachings of Buddhism that creates BAD KARMA. will receive what has been done

    by the previous committee
    Samnak Sambodhi, Desa Jaya, Kepong, KL

  4. Umumkan kepada orang ramai,
    Pengerusi MCA GOMBAK (YIP KUM FOOK) yang tinggal di Taman Desa Jaya, Kuala Lumpur Kepong adalah pengkhianat agama Buddha.
    1) Dia menggunakan kekerasan dan kekerasan untuk cuba memukul sami Buddha di SAMNAK SAMBODHI BUDDHA TEMPLE, DESA JAYA, KEPONG, KUALA LUMPUR
    2) Dia menggunakan kuasanya untuk memanggil polis dan, cuba menangkap sami Buddha. Apa yang salah dengan rahib itu?
    3) Dia menggunakan kuasanya untuk makan wang Persatuan Buddha atau SAMNAK SAMBODHI BUDDHA TEMPLE
    4) Dia menggunakan kuasanya untuk menipu wang wanita dan memusnahkan keluarga orang lain
    5) Dia jahat dan pendusta

  5. Share with Buddhists in Malaysia and around the world.
    We would like to inform our Buddhist about Yip Kum Fook who is president of SAMNAK SAMBODHI BUDDHIST ASSOCIATION, Taman Desa Jaya, Kepong, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
    He is planning to turn the SAMNAK SAMBODHI into a Mahayana temple. but was not successful as some committees died without any illnesses, Yip Kum Fook rebelled against Buddhists all the time.
    Yip kum Fook is a stubborn, dirty-minded man who is always angry with his son (Yip Jiun Han). His son is now insane and unconscious. When we are at the SAMNAK SAMBODHI, the son always comes to talk with us about family. We know that this is a kind of karma, fluent.
    please research on internet or google about Yip Kum Fook to know more details and we are Buddhists need to protect our Buddha words. We know this SAMNAK SAMBODHI BUDDHIST TEMPLE we have seldom worked hardly before. PLEASE SHARE WITH EVERYONE.

  6. Dear brother and sister,

    I am Myanmar who working in Malaysia more than 10 years and I would like to explain about SAMNAK SAMBODHI BUDDHIST ASSOCIATION. Therefore, recently I stayed at SASANARAKKHA BUDDHIST SANCTUARY (SBS), Taiping, Perak. I am very close with Ven. U Nandiya Maha Thero.

    My monk Ven. U Nandiya is very good heart and compassion to everyone in the world, also I heard when he stayed at Kuala Lumpur Buddhist Temple, he lends donation money to President of Temple (DATUK YIP KUM FOOK, MCA Gombak) with amount RM20,000.00 only and he said that money belong to Myanmar society in Malaysia.

    On the other hand, my monk said, also many things happened when he stayed there because committees always disturbing, I am very sadly about that matter, why committees are very poor and crooks. Others Temple, people come to Temple to respected Buddha and Monks, also give red packet to monks. Why this Temple, monks must give money to committees, this is opposite.

    If anyone receive or read this message, please inform to DATUK YIP KUM FOOK (president of Temple) to return that amount to my monk as soon as possible.

    My monk contact place:

    Ven. U Nandiya
    SASANA DAJA BUDDHIST TEMPLE
    49 Bombay Street, Lidcombe NSW 2141.
    Tel: (02) 9649-8124

    With kindness

    Anyone visiting this Buddhist Temple must be careful with the committee members as they can suck your money and the president of the Temple is also more sucking monks’ money already, add and call the police to arrest Buddhist monks
