As we come to recognize the oneness of humanity, our motivation to find peace will grow stronger. Sisters and brothers must share each other’s suffering. Mutual respect, trust, and concern for one another’s welfare is our best hope for lasting world peace. #PeaceDayChallenge

When you have a peaceful and tamed mind, life is more pleasant for your friends, spouse, parents, children, and acquaintances; your home is quiet, and all who live there enjoy an excellent sense of relaxation. Upon entering your house, others feel a sense of happiness.

To all those reaching out wishing my father a Happy Birthday today, thank you. If you'd like to do something to remember him, go out and do something kind for someone, and then, for yourself!

We have to make an effort to extend our natural compassion, not just through prayer or coining nice words, but by putting our intelligence to good use. That’s how we’ll become happy ourselves, living in a happy family, a happy community and a happier world.

In our consciousness, there are many negative seeds and also many positive seeds. The practice is to avoid watering the negative seeds, and to identify and water the positive seeds every day. - Thich Nhat Hanh #consciousness #negative #positive #life #practice #not_a_BRaT
