When we want a cup of tea our main wish is to drink tea, but to fulfill this wish we naturally develop the secondary wish to find a cup. In a similar way, the main wish of those who have great compassion is to protect all living beings from their suffering, but to fulfill this wish they know they must first attain Buddhahood themselves and so they naturally develop the secondary wish to attain enlightenment.

Practicing Dharma is the supreme method for improving the quality of our human life.

I have not met one living being that has not been the mother of all the rest.

Faith is like pure eyes that enable us to see a pure and perfect world beyond the suffering world of samsara.

There is no greater method for experiencing peace of mind and happiness than to understand and meditate on Emptiness.

We are all interconnected in a web of kindness from which it is impossible to separate ourself.

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