attitude moving moving-away
Moving towards better rather than moving away from bad is an attitude of embracing life rather than rejecting it.
kindness compassion practice
My message is always the same: to cultivate and practice love, kindness, compassion and tolerance.
meaningful brother thinking
Each one of us is responsible for the whole of humankind. We need to think of each other really as brothers and sisters and to be concerned for each other’s welfare. Rather than working solely to acquire wealth, we need to do something meaningful, something directed seriously towards the welfare of humanity as a whole.
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.
buddhist buddhism trying
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.
heart one-day wish
My hope and wish is that one day, formal education will pay attention to what I call 'education of the heart'.
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.
