With realization of one's own potential and self-confidence in one's ability, one can build a better world.

Rulers come and go. It's the people who are the real rulers of the country.

We can reject everything else: religion, ideology, all received wisdom. But we cannot escape the necessity of love and compassion. This, then, is my true religion, my simple faith. In this sense, there is no need for temple or church, for mosque or synagogue, no need for complicated philosophy, doctrine, or dogma. Our own heart, our own mind, is the temple. The doctrine is compassion. Love for others and respect for their rights and dignity, no matter who or what they are: ultimately these are all we need.

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

My main concern is meeting with public because my main commitment, main interest is promotion of human value, human affection, compassion and religious harmony.
