Ethics: The indispensable interface between my desire to be happy and yours.

Since we became Buddhist, we have lived in peace with them. We did not invade them. We did not want them to invade us. We have never declared war on China.

Peace… starts within each one of us. When we have inner peace, we can be at peace with those around us.

There is only one important point you must keep in your mind and let it be your guide. No matter what people call you, you are just who you are. Keep to this truth. You must ask yourself how is it you want to live your life. We live and we die, this is the truth that we can only face alone. No one can help us, not even the Buddha. So consider carefully, what prevents you from living the way you want to live your life?

If we make consistent effort, based on proper education, we can change the world.

Reality is devoid of any intrinsic identity that can be captured by any one single proposition - that is what Buddha meant by "voidness."

Artists have the responsibility to serve humanity give people hope.
