It is felt that a disciplined mind leads to happiness and an undisciplined mind leads to suffering, and in fact it is said that bringing about discipline within one's mind is the essence of the Buddha's teaching.

We can benefit others through our actions by being warm and generous toward them, by being charitable, and by helping those in need.

Compassion, forgiveness, these are the real, ultimate sources of power for peace and success in life

I believe deeply that we must find a new spirituality... in such a way that all people of good will could adhere to it... We ought to promote this concept with the help of scientists... It could lead us to what we are looking for.

My hope and wish is that one day, formal education will pay attention to what I call 'education of the heart'.

To a large extent, whether you suffer depends on how you respond to a given situation.

Mutual respect is the foundation of genuine harmony.
