life-is human-life humans
The basic condition of human life is happiness.
labels determined one-thing
Furthermore, I shall explain the nature of dharmata: Such a nature as this cannot be determined to be any one thing. So however you label it, that is how it appears.
tolerance weakness should
Tolerance and patience should not be read as signs of weakness. They are signs of strength.
believe together spirituality
I believe deeply that we must find, all of us together, a new spirituality.
believe suffering world
I believe that the destructive nature of society that now threatens the existence of the entire human world has much to do with human intelligence. The way to overcome all human suffering-that also is through human intelligence.
kuwait oil tibet
Tibet is not like Kuwait. Kuwait has oil.
kindness love-is helping-others
Meet hostility and suspicion with kindness. Helping others out of love is always the best option.
self-esteem others-opinions identity
If we choose an external marker as the measure of our inner worth, whether it is the amount of money we make, or others' opinion of us, or the success of some project we're involved in, sooner or later we're bound to be battered by life's inevitable changes. After all, money comes and goes, and thus is an unstable source of self-esteem, an unreliable foundation upon which to build our identity.
real heart mind
Real power has to do with one's ability to influence the hearts and minds of others.
impact effects
Everything you do has some effect, some impact.
spiritual essence path
Overcoming negative tendencies and enhancing positive potential are the very essence of the spiritual path.
happiness thinking just-be-happy
The wiser course is to think of others when pursuing our own happiness.
luxury house care
Taking care of our planet is like taking care of our houses. Since we human beings come from Nature, there is no point in our going against nature, which is why I say the environment is not a matter of religion or ethics or morality. These are luxuries, since we can survive without them. But we will not survive if we continue to go against nature.
concern-for-others mind source-of-happiness
More compassionate mind, more sense of concern for other's well-being, is source of happiness.
