If You Wonder What You Were Doing

One Mongolian Leader Became A Very, Very Brutal Dictator And Eventually Became A Murderer. Previously, He Was A Monk, And Then He Became A Revolutionary. Under The Influence Of His New Ideology, He Actually Killed His Own Teacher. Pol Pot's Family Background Was Buddhist. Whether He Himself Was A Buddhist At A Young Age, I Don't Know. Even Chairman Mao's Family Background Was Buddhist. So One Day, If The Dalai Lama Becomes A Mass Murderer, He Will Become The Most Deadly Of Mass Murderers.

Treat Each Person As You Would An Old Friend.

In The Past, Destruction Of Your Neighbour Might Have Been Considered A Victory, But Today We Are All Interdependent. We Live In A Global Economy; We Face Problems Like Climate Change That Affect Us All. The 7 Billion Human Beings Alive Today Belong To One Human Family. In The Context That Others' Interests Are In Our Interest And Our Interest Is In Their Interest, The Use Of Force Is Self-destructive.

With Realization Of One's Own Potential And Self-confidence In One's Ability, One Can Build A Better World.

Kindness And A Good Heart Are The Foundation For Success In This Life, Progress On The Spiritual Path, And The Fulfillment Of Our Aspirations. Our Need For Them Is Not Limited To Any Specific Time, Place, Society, Or Culture.
