Wisdom And Inner Peace Must Be Created By Yourself.

Remember That Sometimes Not Getting What You Want Is A Wonderful Stroke Of Luck.

Misunderstanding May Arise By Confusing The Buddhist And Scientific Definitions Of Death. Within The Scientific System You Spoke Quite Validly Of The Death Of The Brain And The Death Of Heart. Different Parts Of The Body Can Die Separately. However, In The Buddhist System, The Word Death Is Not Used In That Way. You'd Never Speak Of The Death Of A Particular Part Of The Body, But Rather Of The Death Of An Entire Person. When People Say That A Certain Person Died, We Don't Ask, "well, Which Part Died?"

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.

Values Are Related To Our Emotions, Just As We Practice Physical Hygiene To Preserve Our Physical Health, We Need To Observe Emotional Hygiene To Preserve A Healthy Mind And Attitudes.
