“All the happiness there is in this world comes from thinking about others, and all the suffering comes from preoccupation with yourself.”

“All the suffering there is in this world arises from wishing our self to be happy. All the happiness there is in this world arises from wishing others to be happy.”

“What need is there to say more?The childish work for their own benefit,The Buddhas work for the benefit of others.Just look at the difference between them.If I do not exchange my happiness, for the suffering of others, I shall not attain the state of Buddhahood.And even in Samsara I shall have no real joy. The source of all misery in the world lies in thinking of oneself;The source of all happiness lies in thinking of others.”

“We who are like senseless children shrink from suffering, but love its causes. We hurt ourselves; our pain is self-inflicted! Why should others be the object of our anger?”

“With perfect and unyielding faith,With steadfastness, respect, and courtesy,With modesty and conscientiousness,Work calmly for the happiness of others.”

“We hate suffering, but love it’s causes.”

“All that may be wished for, will by nature fade to nothing.”
