  Subject:(Info) Did u know... Nadya Hutagalung is a Buddhist? :)
  
  Hey all,

just wanna share with you guys nih.

Beberapa hari yang lalu gue baca di koran sini, Singapore Strait Times, ada 
article ringan yang lumayan menarik perhatian gue, It's about Nadya Hutagalung 
and her life now. Here are some of the lines in the article: "..Nadya 
Hutagalung is now happy and at peace, thanks to Buddhism and her husband, 
former national swimmer Desmond Koh.."

Article nya cukup panjang. I tried to find it on the net but unfortunately 
couldn't. Ada di website Strait Times nya tapi musti subscribe. hehe.

Anyway, di article itu diceritain gimana masa lalunya dia tuh horrible banget.
Starting career as a model at the age of only 14, dia jadi ter-exposed sama 
drugs and lifstyle model yang gila2an bebas. Terus dua ex (boyfriend and 
husband) nya abusive dan sering physically abused her. Basically her life was 
all miserable and created a bad impact on her psychological self gitu deh..

Diceritain bahwa dia sekarang dah nemuin that 'Peace of mind' dari belajar 
Buddhism. ciee.. hehe. 
here's the passage:
".. This change can also be attributed partly to Buddhism, which she started 
practising two years ago. It has given her a sense of calm and made her a 
better mother, friend and wife, she says. The slight limp which she is nursing 
today is the result of a two-hour session of prostration during her weekly 
Buddhism classes.."

The rest of the article talks about her past, career, etc.
Menariknya dia juga punya business Jewelery 
yang dikasih nama Osel (means 'clear light' in Tibetan. Inget lama Osel?)

Anyway, I just thought that was an interesting news and not many people know.
Yang di indo kan taunya Dewi n marcell aja yang aktif sebagai Buddhists.
Setau gue masih banyak juga western actors&actress yg Buddhists, kayak Jet Lee 
(ehemm ;b), Richard Gere (basi news. hehe), Steven Seagal, Keanu Reeves, Mark 
Wahlberg, Orlando Bloom, Jennifer Lopez (Hot! hehe.), Uma Thurman (secara 
bokapnya, Robert Thurman penulis dan sejarahwan Tibetan Buddhist gitu lho) and 
of course, my favourite rap group Beastie Boys! 
(Beastie Boys actually wrote a rap song with Dharma teaching in it, you guys 
should check it out, it's called Boddhisattva' s Vow. The music is combination 
of Hip Hop and Tibetan music instrument. And the lyrics is so good).

Well, some of you may say, "So what kalo banyak orang ngetop yg Buddhist?"
Ya ga kenapa2 juga sih. hehe. But I think it should make us realise that 
Buddhism is beautiful, that it attracts so many people and that we also hear so 
many times how their life change to become much better after learning and 
practicing Buddhism.
Seperti yang kita denger dari cerita Dewi Dee dan Nadya di atas.

The fact is, we often take things for granted. Apa yang dari dulu udah kita 
punya seringkali ngga kita sadari dan hargai. Sebagai Buddhist dari lahir, kita 
kadeng ngga merasa punya sesuatu yang berharga, jadi ngga dipelajari lebih jauh 
dan dipraktekkan. Beda dengan orang2 yang baru menemukan Buddhism setelah 
mereka bener2 mencari. They feel like they have found beautiful jewel and they 
really appreciate it.

So, kalo mereka2 yang baru menemukan Buddhism aja bisa bangga dan become happy 
by practicing it, kenapa kita ga bisa? ;)

Well, are you proud to be a Buddhist? I am. :D
