Through money or power you cannot solve all problems. The problem in the human heart must be solved first.

If we have no inner peace, we deceive ourselves into thinking that comfort and prosperity will bring happiness.

I pray for all of us, oppressor and friend, that together we succeed in building a better world through human understanding and love, and that in doing so we may reduce the pain and suffering of all sentient beings.

Some feel that you lose your independence if you don't let your mind just wander where it wants to, if you try to control it. But that is not the case. If your mind is proceeding in the correct way, one already has the correct opinion. But if your mind is proceeding in an incorrect way, then it's necessary, definitely, to exercise control.

Forget the failures. Keep the lessons.

You are the people who are shaping a better world. One of the secrets of inner peace is the practice of compassion.

Once a year go somewhere you have never been before.
