It is through our anger and hatred that we transform people into enemies.

Love is the real nuclear bomb that destroys all our enemies, because when we love all living beings, we have no enemies.

The cause of happiness and the solution to our problems do not lie in knowledge of material things. Happiness and suffering are states of mind, and so their main causes cannot be found outside the mind. If we want to be truly happy and free from suffering, we must learn how to control our mind.

This impure world that we presently experience exists only in relation to our impure mind.

We know that we are happy when our mind is peaceful, and unhappy when it is not. It is therefore clear that our happiness depends upon our having a peaceful mind and not on good external conditions. Even if our external conditions are poor, if we maintain a peaceful mind all the time we shall always be happy.

All the happiness there is in the world arises from wishing others to be happy.

Buddha's teachings are scientific methods to solve the problems of all living beings permanently.
