If you want to be happy, practice compassion. quote:I believe a proper use of our time is to serve others if we can or at least refrain from harming them. That is the basis of my philosophy. quote:At one level, all major religious traditions have the same aim – to transform the individual into a positive being. quote:All the major religious traditions carry the message of love, compassion and forgiveness. quote:A calm mind helps our human intelligence to assess the situation realistically. quote:The efforts we make sincerely to transform ourselves spiritually are what make us genuine practitioners. quote:All individuals are equal in that every one of us instinctively seeks happiness and avoids suffering. quote: Only the inner protection of patience can keep us from experiencing the turmoil of negative thoughts and emotions. quote:We must cultivate a universal responsibility toward each other and extend it to the planet that we have to share. quote:The most important benefit of patience consists in the way it acts as a powerful antidote to the affliction of anger. quote:We can’t overcome anger and hatred by simply suppressing them.
