Those who don't have a life filled with luxury may have a home filled with compassion, based on their choice to be content and to practice self-discipline. Even when we have physical hardships, we can be very happy.

It is not enough to be compassionate, we must act.

Human satisfaction must ultimately come from within oneself.

Different religions meet the needs of different people

I always emphasize that it is much safer and better to keep one's own religious faith. The other major religions are thousands of years old and have long traditions.

We have global communication and yet confrontation is more common than dialogue.
