Our purpose in life is to be happy. From the very core of our being, we simply desire contentment.

I request you to try to be warm-hearted. I ask this of you because these mental attitudes actually bring us happiness.

We are visitors on this planet. We are here for one hundred years at the very most. During that period we must try to do something good, something useful, with our lives. if you contribute to other people's happiness, you will find the true meaning of life.

I feel that the essence of spiritual practice is your attitude toward others. When you have a pure, sincere motivation, then you have right attitude toward others based on kindness, compassion, love and respect.

I think there's every reason this 21st century will be much happier.

We must generate courage equal to the size of the difficulties we face.

Gratitude is something you show in relation to others.
