Whenever there is a challenge, there is also an opportunity to face it, to demonstrate and develop our will and determination.

We have a natural creative ability and it is very important to realize this.

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

Where there is a mind, there are feelings such as pain, pleasure, and joy. No sentient being wants pain: all wants happiness instead.

I'd rather be kind than right. You can always be kind.

I want to say, without hesitation, the purpose of our life is happiness.

There should be a balance between material and spiritual progress, a balance achieved through the principles based on love and compassion.
