1. The kind of thoughts we nurture

    204 September 30, 2013

    Our life depends on the kind of thoughts we nurture. If our thoughts are peaceful, calm, meek, and kind, then that is what our life is like. If our attention is turned to the circumstances in which we live, we are drawn into a whirlpool of thoughts and can have neither peace nor tranquility. ~Elder Thaddeus of Vitovnica

  2. Not even for one minute

    23 September 30, 2013

    Don't think for one minute that you are any less worthy of love and peace and harmony just because of all the hate spewed by human devils. Because that is what those haters are, you know, devils! ~Scylar Tyberius

    26 September 2013 – I am pleased to introduce the report of the Secretary-General on the role and achievements of the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights in assisting the Government and People of Cambodia in the promotion and protection of human rights which is A/HRC/24/32 and covers the period between July 2012 and May of this year. During this period, OHCHR continued to work with the Government and the people of Cambodia in a number of key areas such as rule of law; prison reform; fundamental freedoms; land and housing rights. And we also expanded our work on the issue of business and human rights. Read the full report in English | Khmer. We hope that Cambodia will embark, as promised, on an ambitious programme to reform of some of its key institutions which are fundamental for the promotion and protection of human rights, including the judiciary and the National Assembly. OHCHR will continue to remain fully committed to supporting the Government and the people of Cambodia in this important endeavour. Read the statement in English.

  6. Eternal Wisdom

    96 September 26, 2013

    Those who attempt to conquer hatred by hatred are like warriors who take weapons to overcome others who bear arms. This does not end hatred, but gives it room to grow. But, ancient wisdom has advocated a different timeless strategy to overcome hatred. This eternal wisdom is to meet hatred with non-hatred. The method of trying to conquer hatred through hatred never succeeds in overcoming hatred. But, the method of overcoming hatred through non-hatred is eternally effective. That is why that method is described as eternal wisdom. ~Gautama Buddha

  7. Never ask anyone to respect You

    72 September 26, 2013

    Do not go around, asking people to show you respect. Respect does not work that way. Asking people to show you respect is like forcing them to do what they don't want to do. There are times, when you are coping with rude people who refuse to show respect to everyone in general, not just you. But there are times also, when people refuse to show you respect because they do not feel like you deserve it. Either circumstance, just move on and live with it, rather than forcing someone to go against his/her will. ~Jendhamuni

  8. Make Peace with Silence

    97 September 26, 2013

    Make peace with silence, and remind yourself that it is in this space that you'll come to remember your spirit. When you're able to transcend an aversion to silence, you'll also transcend many other miseries. And it is in this silence that the remembrance of God will be activated. ~Wayne W. Dyer

  9. When someone

    58 September 26, 2013

    When someone has been mean to you, why would you want to be good to them? You wouldn't want to. That's what makes it hard. You do it anyway. Being good is hard. Much harder than being bad. ~Jeanne DuPrau
