kindness heart feelings
My religion is kindness. A good mind, a good heart, warm feelings these are the most important things.
attitude concern-for-others inner-peace
By developing a sense of concern for others' well-being, then no matter what others' attitudes are, you can keep inner peace.
punishment judgement sin
Sin contains its own judgement and punishment.
truth nice animal
On love, not harming others, and respecting all beings. Even animals have these elements in their behavioral patterns. We should start by observing how animals act. They are honest and appreciate it when we are honest with them. If you present something nice to an animal in one hand while hiding a rope in the other, the creature will know your intention. Yet animals have no religion, no constitution. Basic nature has endowed them with the faculty of discernment. It is the same for humans.
friends order keys
The mind is key. If anything should be considered a god, so to speak, it is the mind, not money. A healthy positive mind is the utmost priority. But if we were to reverse the order of these priorities, what would happen? I find it hard to imagine how a person with great wealth, bad health, no friends, and no peace of mind could feel even slightly happy.
economic social theory
As far as social-economic theory is concerned, I am still a Marxist
space world boundaries
If we looked down at the world from space, we would not see any demarcations of national boundaries. We would simply see one small planet, just one.

Don't try to use what you learn from Buddhism to be a Buddhist; use it to be a better whatever-you-al ready-are.
meaningful compassion lasting-happiness
Compassion is one of the principal things that make our lives meaningful. It is the source of all lasting happiness and joy.
humanity world compassionate
We can only transform humanity and create a happier more compassionate world through education.
kindness selfish winning
The simple recognition that everyone else wants to be happy and not to suffer, just as I do, serves as a constant reminder against selfishness and partiality. It reminds us there is little to be gained from being kind and generous while hoping to win something in return. Actions motivated by a desire to earn a good name for ourselves are still selfish, even if they appear to be acts of kindness.
compassion concern-for-others tolerance
If indeed the qualities such as love, patience, tolerance, and forgiveness are what happiness consists in, and if it is also true that compassion, defined as concern for others, is both the source and the fruit of these qualities, then the more we are compassionate, the more we provide for our own happiness.
creative important realizing
We have a natural creative ability and it is very important to realize this.
compassion genuine-concern rights
I would like to explain the meaning of compassion, which is often misunderstood. Genuine compassion is based not on our own projections and expectations, but rather on the rights of the other: irrespective of whether another person is a close friend
