“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.”

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

“Yet some happiness must and would arise, from the very conviction, that he did suffer.”

“The happiness which comes from long practice, which leads to the end of suffering, which at first is like poison, but at last like nectar - this kind of happiness arises from the serenity of one's own mind.”

“Happiness: an agreeable sensation arising from contemplating the misery of another.”

“All phenomena are embraced within a single self-knowing awareness.Even though they arise as the totality of samsara and nirvana,the phenomena of the world of appearances and possibilities—limitless, boundless—arise from basic space.Therefore, they are subsumed within basic space from which the first arise.”
