When one experiences truth, the madness of finding fault with others disappears.

The Buddha never taught a sectarian religion; he taught Dhamma - the way to liberation - which is universal.

I am against conversion (to Buddhism). In my speech at UN, the first thing I said was that I am for conversion, but not from one organised religion to another, but from misery to happiness, from bondage to liberation.

Peace and negativity cannot coexist just as light and darkness cannot coexist.

Real wisdom is recognizing and accepting that every experience is impermanent. With this insight you will not be overwhelmed by ups and downs. And when you are able to maintain an inner balance, you can choose to act in ways that will create happiness for you and for others. Living each moment happily with an equanimous mind, you will surely progress toward the ultimate goal of liberation from all suffering.

When one experiences truth, the madness of finding fault with others disappears.

Removing old conditionings from the mind and training the mind to be more equaimous with every experience is the first step toward enabling one to experience true happiness.
