If Others Are Happy, We Will Be

For Those Who May Not Find Happiness To Exercise Religious Faith, It's Okay To Remain A Radical Atheist; It's Absolutely An Individual Right, But The Important Thing Is With A Compassionate Heart - Then No Problem.

Americans Are Interested Because They Are Open-minded. They Have An Education System That Teaches Them To Find Out For Themselves Why Things Are The Way They Are.

Home Is Where You Feel At Home And Are Treated Well.

Hatred, Jealousy And Excessive Attachment Cause Suffering And Agitation. I Feel Compassion Can Help Us Overcome These Disturbances And Let Us Return To A Calm State Of Mind. Compassion Is Not Just Being Kind To Your Friend. That Involves Attachment Because It Is Based On Expectation. Compassion Is When You Do Something Good Without Any Expectations - Based On Realizing That "the Other Person Is Also Just Like Me".
