In our concern for others, we worry less about ourselves.

Education is the way to achieve far-reaching results, it is the proper way to promote compassion and tolerance in society.

A heart full of love and compassion is the main source of inner strength, willpower, happiness, and mental tranquility

Friends, genuine friends, are attracted by a warm heart, not money, not power. A genuine friend considers you as just another human being, as a brother or sister, and shows affection on that level, regardless of whether you are rich or poor, or in a high position; that is a genuine friend.

The ultimate source of my mental happiness is my peace of mind. Nothing can destroy this except my own anger.

The nature of the mind is such that if certain mental qualities are developed on a sound basis, they not only remain, but they also increase. In fact, once properly developed, the mind's good qualities eventually increase indefinitely. Therefore spiritual practice brings us long-term happiness and inner strength.

True spirituality is a mental attitude you can practice at any time.
