Without inner peace, outer peace is impossible.

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

When we understand clearly that inner peace is the real source of happiness, and how, through spiritual practice, we can experience progressively deeper levels of inner peace, we will develop tremendous enthusiasm to practice

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

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.

We need modern ideas, but we also need ancient wisdom. If we deny ancient wisdom we are making a big mistake.

We need to keep a constant watch over our mind and learn to distinguish between the beneficial and harmful thoughts that are arising moment by moment. Those who are able to do this are truly wise.
