I believe all suffering is caused by ignorance.

The more we feel concern for others and seek their well-being, the more friends we will have and the more welcome we will feel.

World economies are always so tenuous and we are subject to so many losses in life, but a compassionate attitude is something we can always carry with us.

Now is the time when your action is practice.

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

I really feel that some people neglect and overlook compassion because they associate it with religion. Of course, everyone is free to choose whether they pay religion any regard, but to neglect compassion is a mistake because it is the source of our own well-being.

Despite all philosophical differences, all major world religions have the same potential to create good human beings.
