Because (Second) life can be intense and at times stressful, it’s good to find places where you can relax and enjoy some time alone, or with friends, and simply….be.

I am not the philosophical type, nor am I known for my spirituality, but somewhere deep down in Cait is a girl that needs to get back in balance every now and then.

Anyways! This morning I was in need for inner peace and found the Buddha Center, with hot springs and spa. How lovely to practice some yoga on a mat in the mist, wearing the towel that is provided at the entrance. Suitable music on the background and soon I felt all Zen, actually feeling myself unwind.

Don’t ask me why, but the following came to my mind, while spending time here. And yes I am aware its Confucian and not Buddha, but in the end its all about Karma:

Tzu-kung asked, “Is there one word which may serve as a rule of practice for all one’s life?”
Confucius answered, “Is not reciprocity such a word? What you do not want done to yourself, do not do to others.”‘

The Buddha center also has temples and places to meditate, Tai-Chi, a Deer Park and a modest shop.
