faith in humanity

The essence of the faith in Buddhism, and right view as well, is an an unwavering faith in humanity -- in its loyalty and freedom.

Walk in peace

What is past, -- let that seem best. Before thee let there be nothing.
And if thou wilt not grasp what lies between, thou shalt walk in peace.

-- Dhammapada Commentary, 80

The benefit of teachers with faults

We shouldn't be intolerant to advise from imperfect people, because often imperfect people are more interested in others' faults than perfect people. So they might be more likely to mention our faults than perfect people.

Growth

There is only one thing that gets only worse throughout our life, and that is our own physical health. Everything else can either get better or worse. The value of our human being then lies in developing those things that can be developed, when our ever declining physical health still provides us with time remaining. The most important of those things to be developed is of course our own strength of character, of which stillness of mind is its essence.

Language

If a language is not appropriate to use for the Dhamma, then the usage of that language must be changed, not the choice of it.

Chance

"We have the chance to attain the Buddha (within), to see the Buddha everyday. In one single day we have the chance to attain many times. Every time we remember the Buddha, we have the chance to see the Buddha. Every single time."
Lp Dhammajayo, 12 July B.E. 2546

Technology

When using technology, make sure you tell it what to do. Don't let technology tell you what to do.
