Love doesn't have any color. Other people may discriminate against us, but what is more important is whether we discriminate against them. If we don't do that, we are a happier person, and as a happier person, we are in a position to help. And anger, this is not a help.

Compassion is a verb.

To make your voice heard is difficult. Sometimes we have to burn ourselves in order to be heard. It is out of compassion that you do that. It is the act of love and not of despair.

If the people who hurt us have anger or desperation within them then they suffer. When you see that someone suffers, you might be motivated by a desire to help him not to suffer anymore.

Keeping your body healthy is an expression of gratitude to the whole cosmos — the trees, the clouds, everything.

You can only recognize your happiness against the background of suffering.

Until there is peace between religions, there can be no peace in the world.
