kindness community inner-peace
Peace starts within each one of us. When we have inner peace, we can be at peace with those around us. When our community is in a state of peace, it can share peace with neighboring communities, and so on. When we feel love and kindness towards others, it not only makes others feel loved and cared for, but it helps us also to develop inner happiness and peace.
peace believe mean
I believe all religions pursue the same goals, that of cultivating human goodness and bringing happiness to all human beings. Though the means may appear different, the ends are the same.
successful people doe
The planet does not need more successful people. The planet desperately needs more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers, and lovers of all kinds.
teaching essence discipline
It is felt that a disciplined mind leads to happiness and an undisciplined mind leads to suffering, and in fact it is said that bringing about discipline within one's mind is the essence of the Buddha's teaching.
self-confidence calm-mind inner-strength
Calm mind brings inner strength and self-confidence, so that's very important for good health.
community trying kind
Even if only a few individuals try to create mental peace and happiness within themselves, and act responsibly and kind-heartedly towards others, they will have a positive influence in their community.
heart firsts problem
Through money or power you cannot solve all problems. The problem in the human heart must be solved first.
thinking way ethics
I am increasingly convinced that the time has come to find a way of thinking about spirituality and ethics beyond religion altogether.

When you engage in fulfilling the needs of others, your own needs are fulfilled as a by-product.
heart use good-heart
The proper use of our intelligence and knowledge is to effect changes from within to develop a good heart.
mutual-respect contact greater
The more contact we have with one another and the more we come to understand each other's values, the greater will be our mutual respect.
yield inner-peace development
Material development alone does not yield genuine inner peace.
race humanity fundamentals
The many factors which divide us are actually much more superficial than those we share. Despite all of the things that differentiate us - race, language, religion, gender, wealth and so on - we are all equal concerning our fundamental humanity.
motivation concern-for-others genuine-concern
The quality of everything we do: our physical actions, our verbal actions, and even our mental actions, depends on our motivation. That's why it's important for us to examine our motivation in our day to day life. If we cultivate respect for others and our motivation is sincere, if we develop a genuine concern for others’ well-being, then all our actions will be positive.
