CURRENT MISSION

Find peace and quiet - be happy with simple things

PHILOSOPHY

This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.
(Dalai Lama)

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
(Dalai Lama)

All major religious traditions carry basically the same message, that is love, compassion and forgiveness the important thing is they should be part of our daily lives.
(Dalai Lama)

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.
(Dalai Lama)

My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.
(Dalai Lama)

Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive.
(Dalai Lama)

Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion now accepted was once eccentric.
(favorite philosopher and logician Bertrand Russell)

Of all forms of caution, caution in love is perhaps the most fatal to true happiness.
(Bertrand Russell)

The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent full of doubt.
(Bertrand Russell)

The beauty that addresses itself to the eyes is only the spell of the moment; the eye of the body is not always that of the soul.
La beauté de l’apparence est seulement un charme de l’instant ; l’apparence du corps n’est pas toujours le reflet de l’âme.
(George Sand, "Le Beau Laurence")
