Kindness Is The Key To Peace And

We Human Beings Are Social Beings. We Come Into The World As The Result Of Others’ Actions. We Survive Here In Dependence On Others. Whether We Like It Or Not, There Is Hardly A Moment Of Our Lives When We Do Not Benefit From Others’ Activities. For This Reason, It Is Hardly Surprising That Most Of Our Happiness Arises In The Context Of Our Relationships With Others.

I Think When Tragic Things Happen It Is On Surface. It Is Like The Ocean. One The Surface A Waves And Sometimes The Wave Is Very Serious And Strong. But It Comes And Goes, Comes And Goes, And Underneath, The Ocean Always Remains Calm. Tibetans Have A Saying: "if Bad News Comes To You Listen Here" (points To The Right Ear) "and Let It Our Here" (points To The Left Ear).

The Real Test Of Compassion Is Not What We Say In Abstract Discussions But How We Conduct Ourselves In Daily Life.

Without Mutual Tolerance Emerging As The Foundation, Terrible Situations Like Those Of Tibet And Sri Lanka, Bosnia And Rwanda, Can Never Be Effectively Improved.

As Free Human Beings We Can Use Our Unique Intelligence To Try To Understand Ourselves And Our World. But If We Are Prevented From Using Our Creative Potential, We Are Deprived Of One Of The Basic Characteristics Of A Human Being.
