Maybe, Just Maybe, I Would

Criminals, People Who Commit Crimes, Usually Society Rejects These People. They Are Also Part Of Our Society. Give Them Some Form Of Punishment To Say They Were Wrong, But Show Them They Are Part Of Society And Can Change. Show Them Compassion.

If You Resort To Violent Methods Because The Other Side Has Destroyed Your Monastery, For Example, You Then Have Lost Not Only Your Monastery, But Also Your Special Buddhist Practices Of Detachment, Love, And Compassion.

By Developing A Sense Of Respect For Others And A Concern For Their Welfare, We Reduce Our Own Selfishness, Which Is The Source Of All Problems, And Enhance Our Sense Of Kindness, Which Is A Natural Source Of Goodness.

I Believe That The Very Purpose Of Life Is To Be Happy. From The Very Core Of Our Being, We Desire Contentment. In My Own Limited Experience I Have Found That The More We Care For The Happiness Of Others, The Greater Is Our Own Sense Of Well-being.

All I Can Do Is Engage With Complete Sincerity. Then Whatever Happens, There Is No Regret.
