Everything you do has some effect, some impact.

Foolish, selfish people are always thinking of themselves and the result is always negative. Wise persons think of others, helping them as much as they can, and the result is happiness. Love and compassion are beneficial both for you and others. Through your kindness to others, your mind and heart will open to peace.

A Compassionate state of mind brings inner peace, and therefore a healthier body.

Looking at various means of developing compassion, I think empathy is an important factor: the ability to appreciate others' suffering.

A mind that is characterized by unrest will not be tranquil even in the presence of great calm.

I appreciate any organization or individual people who sincerely make an effort to promote harmony between humanity, and particularly harmony between the various religions. I consider it very sacred work and very important work

A balanced and skillful approach to life, taking care to avoid extremes, becomes a very important factor in conducting one's everyday existence.
