I believe all suffering is caused by ignorance.

In my mind of course natural disaster like tsunami, and these things, also I think indirectly may relate to human behavior. But then major sort of problems actually they're due to a lack of moral principle.

I truly believe that compassion provides the basis of human survival.

There should be a spirit of dialogue. Whenever we see any disagreements, we must think how to solve them on the basis of recognition of oneness of the entire humanity. This is the modern reality.

If you lose your temper, your sound sleep will go, and you will have to use a tranquilizer or sleeping pills? Then gradually, more white hair, wrinkles.

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

Whether or not we follow any particular spiritual tradition, the benefits of love and kindness are obvious to anyone.
