Create happiness right now
"It is our basic right to be a happy person, happy family, and eventually a happy world. That should be our goal."
-- Dalai Lama
" ... we can no longer afford to throw away even one ‘unimportant’ day by not noticing the wonder of it all. We have to be willing to discover and then appreciate the authentic moments of happiness available to all of us every day."
-- Sarah Ban Breathnach
Do you engage in violence?
"There are three kinds of violence: one, through our deeds; two, through our words; and three, through our thoughts. ... The root of all violence is in the world of thoughts, and that is why training the mind is so important."
-- Eknath Easwaran
"The ancestor of every destructive action, every destructive decision, is a negative thought."
-- Eknath Easwaran
"We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far."
-- Swami Vivekananda
