To imagine that good can be done by the means of evil is an illusion, a nightmare.

The more one is attached to self, the greater is the suffering.

A balanced mind is necessary to balance the mind of others.

What is happiness? For all that science has achieved in the field of materialism, are the peoples of the world happy? They may find sensual pleasures off and on, but in their hearts of hearts, they are not happy when they realise what has happened, and what may happen next. Why? This is because, while man has mastery over matter, he is still lacking in mastery over his mind.
