kindness thinking keys
The key to genuine happiness is in our hands. To think this way is to discover the essential values of kindness, brotherly love and altruism. The more clearly we see the benefits of these values, the more we will seek to reject anything that opposes them; in this way we will be able to bring about inner transformation.
strong powerful compassion
It is time to fill the world with strong and powerful deeds. It is common knowledge that no great captain in the world has ever destroyed all of his enemies and lived with a sense of satisfaction. If one enemy is killed, two more will appear. It is important we cultivate love and compassion to all the sentient beings which is the way to bring peace to all.
thinking compassion suffering
The more we think of others, the happier we are. The more we think of ourselves, the more suffering we feel.
environment natural natural-environment
The natural environment sustains the life of all beings universally.
earth environment share
We share the earth not only with our fellow human beings, but with all the other creatures.
powerful inner-peace mind
The most important benefit of patience consists in the way it acts as a powerful antidote to the affliction of anger - the greatest threat to our inner peace, and therefore our happiness. The mind, or spirit, is not physical, it cannot be touched or harmed directly. Only negative thoughts and emotions can harm it. Therefore, only the corresponding positive quality can protect it.
awareness thousand oneself
To be aware of a single shortcoming in oneself is more useful than to be aware of a thousand in someone else.
peace passion world
Without inner peace it is impossible to have world peace.
silence mind important
Mental happiness is more important than physical comfort. Physical comfort comes from the material. But material facilities cannot provide you with peace of mind.
running truth long
Try to remain truthful. The power of truth never declines. Force and violence may be effective in the short term, but in the long run it's truth that prevails.
attitude children honesty
There is nothing I can't live without. I learned this attitude when I was a child.
honesty mind development
We need material development, but we need to understand that by itself it doesn't bring peace of mind.
honesty believe i-believe
I believe that we are fundamentally the same and have the same basic potential.
honesty prayer thinking
It's unrealistic to think that the future of humanity can be achieved only on the basis of prayer; what we need is to take action.
