Real power has to do with one's ability to influence the hearts and minds of others.

Anger, hatred, fear, is very bad for our health

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.

So long as space remains, So long sentient beings' suffering remain, I will remain, In order to help, in order to serve... I am nothing but a servant to provide to others. So if you provide some happiness, some comfort to others, then your life becomes meaningful. If your life creates problems or suffering to others, then there's no meaning to your existence.

Altruism is the best source of happiness. There is no doubt about that.

Most of our troubles are due to our passionate desire for and attachment to things that we misapprehend as enduring entities.

My faith helps me overcome such negative emotions and find my equilibrium.
