"My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness."
"Triết lý sống của tôi rất đơn giản. Triết lý về sự tử tế"
"It is very important to generate a good attitude, a good heart, as much as possible. From this, happiness in both the short term and the long term for both yourself and others will come."
"Điều khá quan trọng để nuôi dưỡng thái độ đúng, một trái tim yêu thương hết mức có thể. Nhờ vậy, hạnh phúc sẽ đến với chính bạn và người khác mọi lúc."
"The root of happiness is altruism — the wish to be of service to others."
"Ngọn nguồn của hạnh phúc là lòng vị tha - Ước muốn phục vụ tha nhân"
The mind is like a parachute. It works best when it’s open.
Tâm trí như chiếc dù. Nó làm việc tốt nhất khi nó được mở ra.
"I feel that the essence of spiritual practice is your attitude toward others. When you have a pure, sincere motivation, then you have right attitude toward others based on kindness, compassion, love and respect. Practice brings the clear realisation of the oneness of all human beings and the importance of others benefiting by your actions."
"Human happiness and human satisfaction must ultimately come from within oneself. It is wrong to expect some final satisfaction to come from money or from a computer."
"Hạnh phúc và thoải mái phải xuất phát từ bên trong, hoàn toàn không lệ thuộc vào tiền bạc hay công nghệ"
"If there is love, there is hope that one may have real families, real brotherhood, real equanimity, real peace. If the love within your mind is lost and you see other beings as enemies, then no matter how much knowledge or education or material comfort you have, only suffering and confusion will ensue"
"Khi có tình yêu, hy vọng thì sẽ có một gia đình hạnh phúc, tình bạn chân thành, bình an thực sự. Nếu tình yêu trong tâm trí mất thì bạn nhìn ai cũng là kẻ thù, lúc đó không quan trọng bạn có bao nhiêu kiến thức, được giáo dục tốt như thế nào, và có bao nhiêu của cải, sự đau khổ, thất bại sẽ đến"
"I call myself a feminist. Isn't that what you call someone who fights for women's rights?"
"Tôi xem chính tôi là người tôn trọng phụ nữ. Đó không phải là những gì bạn kêu gọi ai đó đấu tranh cho quyền phụ nữ?"
"Compassion and tolerance are not a sign of weakness, but a sign of strength."
"Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive."
"I believe all suffering is caused by ignorance. People inflict pain on others in the selfish pursuit of their happiness or satisfaction. Yet true happiness comes from a sense of inner peace and contentment, which in turn must be achieved through the cultivation of altruism, of love and compassion and elimination of ignorance, selfishness and greed."
"Everyday, think as you wake up, today I am fortunate to be alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it.”
"When I meet people in different parts of the world, I am always reminded that we are all basically alike: we are all human beings. Maybe we have different clothes, our skin is of a different colour, or we speak different languages. That is on the surface. But basically, we are the same human beings. That is what binds us to each other. That is what makes it possible for us to understand each other and to develop friendship and closeness."
"Because we all share this small planet earth, we have to learn to live in harmony and peace with each other and with nature. That is not just a dream, but a necessity."
"Happiness is not something ready-made. It comes from your own actions."
"Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck."
"If you don’t love yourself, you cannot love others. You will not be able to love others. If you have no compassion for yourself then you are not able of developing compassion for others."
