A little Buddha time for my restless son

Shanghai. Feb 2013

Sometimes my restless son would do something crazy in our house. After chiding him, I would normally want him to reflect on what he did. So I would ask him to go and sit down in front of The Buddha in our hall for twenty minutes. This process normally calms him down and thereafter that I would call him to join us for dinner or some other family activity. Adults of all Faiths find peace in front of their Gods. It worked for my son too.
