If we can refrain from harming others in our actions & words, we can start to give serious attention to actively doing good.

The essence of Buddhism is if you can, help others. If not, then at least refrain from hurting others.

The essence of compassion is a desire to alleviate the suffering of others and to promote their well-being

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

I could justify violence only in this extreme case, to save the last living knowledge of Buddhism itself.

I think the problem is these basic sort of human values from our - from the beginning, from birth, are not sort of properly nurtured. So then our mind, our brain, through education and also difference of experiences, that eventually, these basic values or what are called dominant, not have the catching up our intelligence, experience growth, that also should grow. Then our life become more human.

My own share making contribution [to the the well-being of humanity]. So I never feel I am something special.
