The Practicing Of Loving Kindness Toward One's

To The Extent That Our Experience Of Suffering Reminds Us Of What Everyone Else Also Endures, It Serves As A Powerful Inspiration To Practice Compassion And Avoid Causing Others Pain. And To The Extent That Suffering Awakens Our Empathy And Causes Us To Connect With Others, It Serves As The Basis Of Compassion And Love.

The Need For Love Lies At The Very Foundation Of Human Existence.

The Root Of Happiness Is Altruism - The Wish To Be Of Service To Others.

Our Own Brain, Our Own Heart Is Our Temple; The Philosophy Is Kindness.

It Is My Fundamental Conviction That Compassion - The Natural Capacity Of The Human Heart To Feel Concern For And Connection With Another Human Being - Constitutes A Basic Aspect Of Our Nature Shared By All Human Beings, As Well As Being The Foundation Of Our Happiness. All Ethical Teachings, Whether Religious Or Nonreligious, Aim To Nurture This Innate And Precious Quality, To Develop It And To Perfect It.
