Thank you so much, Bhante! Your writings are very helpful.
Gain and loss, status and disgrace,
censure and praise, pleasure and pain:
these conditions among human beings are inconstant,
impermanent, subject to change.

Knowing this, the wise person, mindful,
ponders these changing conditions.
Desirable things don’t charm the mind,
undesirable ones bring no resistance.

His welcoming and rebelling are scattered,
gone to their end,
do not exist.

Thank you, Bhante!
“No lists of things to be done. The day providential to itself. The hour. There is no later. This is later. All things of grace and beauty such that one holds them to one's heart have a common provenance in pain. Their birth in grief and ashes.”
- Cormac McCarthy, The Road

Learn this from the waters:
in mountain clefts and chasms,
loud gush the streamlets,
but great rivers flow silently.

He who knows only his own side of the case knows little of that. His reasons may be good, and no one may have been able to refute them.
But if he is equally unable to refute the reasons on the opposite side, if he does not so much as know what they are, he has no ground for preferring either opinion …
...
He must be able to hear them from persons who actually believe them … he must know them in their most plausible and persuasive form.

The last few were just added, which just about completes the set. The War On Error PDF has now been added.

I have added a section to "Ethical Dilemmas" and made some minor changes to "The Heart of Buddhism."

Edited to update information.

Just a note, you have one titled "An Explanation to Rebirth" but it should be "An Explanation of Rebirth."

Again, thank you so much for these writings. Sadhu!

And in case that link is not working either, you can find An Alternative Mirror on my SofterViews domain.
Just a very minor detail, in your list on this site has a slight typo: the link is "An Explanation to Rebirth" instead of "An Explanation OF Rebirth."
