One of the basic points is kindness. With kindness, with love and compassion, with his feeling that is the essence of brotherhood, sisterhood, one will have inner peace. This compassionate feeling is the basis of inner peace.

It is our enemies who provide us with the challenge we need to develop the qualities of tolerance, patience and compassion.

An affectionate disposition not only makes the mind more peaceful and calm, but it affects our body in a positive way too.

It is not only our right as members of the global human family to protest when our brothers and sisters are being treated brutally, but it is also our duty to do whatever we can to hep them.

I'd rather be kind than right. You can always be kind.

Instead of harboring fear and suspicion we need to think of other people not as ‘them’ but ‘us’.

In Buddhism, both learning and practice are extremely important, and they must go hand in hand. Without knowledge, just to rely on faith, faith, and more faith is good but not sufficient. So the intellectual part must definitely be present. At the same time, strictly intellectual development without faith and practice, is also of no use. It is necessary to combine knowledge born from study with sincere practice in our daily lives. These two must go together.
