religious believe compassion
I believe that at every level of society the key to a happier world is the growth of compassion. We do not need to become religious, nor do we need to believe in an ideology. All that is necessary is for each of us to develop our good human qualities.
religious atheist heart
For those who may not find happiness to exercise religious faith, it's okay to remain a radical atheist; it's absolutely an individual right, but the important thing is with a compassionate heart - then no problem.
focus humanity gains
If you focus only on yourself and neglect others, you will lose; but you will gain if you value others as much as you cherish yourself.
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.
honesty believe i-believe
I believe that we are fundamentally the same and have the same basic potential.
honesty mind development
We need material development, but we need to understand that by itself it doesn't bring 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.
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.
peace passion world
Without inner peace it is impossible to have world peace.
earth environment share
We share the earth not only with our fellow human beings, but with all the other creatures.
environment natural natural-environment
The natural environment sustains the life of all beings universally.
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.
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.
kindness believe responsibility
As long as we observe love for others and respect for their rights and dignity in our daily lives, then whether we are learned or unlearned, whether we believe in the Buddha or God, follow some religion or none at all, as long as we have compassion for others and conduct ourselves with restraint out of a sense of responsibility, there is no doubt we will be happy.
