Do what makes you happy,
be with someone who makes you smile,
laugh as much as you breathe
and love as long as you live.

Happiness is like a butterfly.
The more you chase it, the more it eludes you.
But if you turn your attention to other things,
It comes and sits softly on your shoulder.

Peace is not something you wish for,
it is something you make,
something you are, something you do,
and something you give away.

Our job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy…this love itself will render both ourselves and our neighbors worthy.

Like a beautiful flower,
full of colour, but without scent,
are the fine but fruitless words
of those who do not act accordingly.

This is the supreme lotus
and is considered to be
the true lotus of Buddha.
Pink Lotus Flower This is the supreme lotus and is considered to be the true lotus of Buddha.
Life seems easy for one who is shameless,
who is a crowing hero, a mischief-maker,
an insulting, impudent, and corrupt person.
But life seems difficult for one who is modest,
who always looks for what is pure,
who is detached, quiet, clear, and intelligent.

Do not speak anything harsh.
Those who are spoken to will answer you.
Angry talk is painful, and retaliation will touch you.
If you make yourself as still as a broken gong,
you have attained nirvana, for anger is not known to you.

With the certain knowledge that death will ultimately overtake us one day, we should decide, with the same calmness, courage and confidence, to discharge our duties and responsibilities towards our immediate dependents. We should not leave things for tomorrow when they can be done today. We should make good use of time and spend our lives usefully. Our duties to our wives, husbands and children deserves priority and should be performed in due time. We should execute our last will and testament, without waiting for the last moment, so that we may not cause undue distress, difficulties and problems to our families due to our neglect. Death may call at any time – it is no respecter of person or time. We should be able to face this ultimate event bravely with hope and confidence if we prepare for the next existence.
Venerable Dr. K. Sri Dhammananda
