Logically, harmony must come from the heart... Harmony very much based on trust. As soon as use force, creates fear. Fear and trust cannot go together.

We are social animals. Others' suffering is ultimately your suffering; their happiness is ultimately your happiness.

It is not enough to be compassionate. You must act. There are two aspects to action. One is to overcome the distortions and afflictions of your own mind, that is, in terms of calming and eventually dispelling anger. This is action out of compassion. The other is more social, more public. When something needs to be done in the world to rectify the wrongs, if one is really concerned with benefitting others, one needs to be engaged, involved.

Friends, genuine friends, have much more to do with whether we have a warm heart, not money or power.

We need cooperation based on trust and self-confidence to create an open, compassionate, harmonious society.

The two most important things to remember in business are: to be aware of the consequential impact on ecology, and a caring relationship between employer and employee.

When we face problems or disagreements today, we have to arrive at solutions through dialogue. Dialogue is the only appropriate method. One-sided victory is no longer acceptable. We must work to resolve conflicts in a spirit of reconciliation and always keep in mind the interests of others.
