“Our enemy is not other people. Our enemy is hatred, violence,discrimination & fear.”
Thich Nhat Hanh
“Whether you believe in god or not does not matter so much, whether you believe in buddha or not does not matter so much; as a Buddhist , whether you believe in reincarnation or not does not matter so much. You must lead a good life. And a good life does not mean good food, good clothes, good shelter. These are not sufficient. A good motivation is what is needed; compassion, without dogmatism, without complicated philosophy; just understanding that others are human brothers & sisters & respecting their rights & human dignity.”
