It's best not to get too excited or too depressed by the ups and downs of life.

I feel that compassionate thought is the most precious thing there is. It is something that only we human beings can develop. And if we have a good heart, a warm heart, warm feelings, we will be happy and satisfied ourselves, and our friends will experience a friendly and peaceful atmosphere as well. This can be experienced community to community, country to country, continent to continent.

The best way of fulfilling your own interest is to take care of others.

Everyone wants to be happy; happiness is a right. And while on a secondary level differences exist of nationality, faith, family background, social status and so on, more important is that on a human level we are the same. None of us wants to face problems, and yet we create them by stressing our differences. If we see each other just as fellow human beings, there'll be no basis for fighting or conflict between us.

Share your knowledge. It is a way to achieve immortality.

Even a small act of compassion grants meaning and purpose to our lives.

Inner values like friendship, trust, honesty and compassion are much more reliable than money - they always bring happiness and strength.
