Learn the rules to know how to break them.

Be prepared to change your goals, but never change their values.
(Open your arms to change, but not letting go of your values.)

About many phenomena is not to say that they are good or bad inherently; they are better or worse than they are tall or short, beautiful or ugly only in comparison with something, but not in its own nature. Their assessment of the relative.

When you experience envy or revenge to the enemy, do not focus on his faults and think about what it represents in reality. Most people have good and bad quality are mixed, and it is difficult to find such a person, which would be bad for all.

Look at your troubles more widely. If someone in something accuses you, answer him not abuse: imagine that this charge weakens the bonds of your self-love, and hence, increases your ability to care for others. Turn trouble into a force conducive to your spiritual development. This method is very difficult to apply but, if successful, will bring many benefits.

Under any circumstances you should not lose hope. A sense of despair - that is the true cause of the failures. Remember: you can overcome any difficulty. Be calm even in the difficult and confusing situation: it will have little impact on you, if your mind is calm. On the contrary, if the mind allows you to be angry, you will lose peace, even if the world will be serene and cozy.

Advances in science and technology have given humanity many benefits, but must pay for everything.

Fortunately you can come in two ways. The first way is external. Acquiring better housing, better clothes, more pleasant friends, we can, in varying degrees, to find happiness and satisfaction. The second path is the path of spiritual development, and it allows you to achieve inner happiness. However, these two approaches are not equivalent. External without internal happiness can not last long. If life draws you in black paint, if your heart something is lacking, you won't be happy, no matter how luxury itself or surrounded. But if you have reached inner peace, you can find happiness even in the most severe conditions.

Man with a huge reserve of patience and tolerance goes through life with a special share of calm and tranquility. Such a person is not only happy and emotionally balanced, but he, moreover, stronger health and are less prone to diseases. He has a strong will, a good appetite, and it is easier to sleep, because his conscience was clean.

Whatever happens - never give up! Expand your heart. Too much energy in your country is spent developing the mind, not the heart. Expand your heart, be compassionate not just to your friends but to everyone. Be compassionate, work for peace in your heart and in the world. Work for peace and I say again never give up.
No matter what happens around you, no matter what happened to you, never give up!

People were created to be loved and things were created to use. The world is in chaos, because the opposite is true.

People - social creatures. We are born by other people. We survive with the help of others. Whether we like it or not, our lives will hardly be able to find moments when we are not dependent on others. It is therefore not surprising that human happiness is the result of our relationships with others.

If the problem can be solved - it is not necessary to worry about,
If the problem is not to worry is useless.

I believe that real religion is a Good Heart.
