Love Is The Absence Of Judgment.

Firstly, As A Buddhist Monk, I Hold That Violence Is Not Good. Secondly, I Am A Firm Believer In The Gandian Ethic Of Passive Resistance. And Thirdly, In Reality, Violence Is Not Our Strength.

I Do Not Judge The Universe.

I Usually Say The Aim Of Life Is To Be Happy. Our Existence Is Based On Hope. Our Life Is Rooted In The Opportunity To Be Happy, Not Necessarily Wealthy, But Happy Within Our Own Minds. If We Only Indulge In Sensory Pleasure, We'll Be Little Different From Animals. In Fact, We Have This Marvellous Brain And Intelligence; We Must Learn To Use It.

The Creation Of A More Peaceful And Happier Society Has To Begin From The Level Of The Individual, And From There It Can Expand To One's Family, To One's Neighborhood, To One's Community And So On.

On Love, Not Harming Others, And Respecting All Beings. Even Animals Have These Elements In Their Behavioral Patterns. We Should Start By Observing How Animals Act. They Are Honest And Appreciate It When We Are Honest With Them. If You Present Something Nice To An Animal In One Hand While Hiding A Rope In The Other, The Creature Will Know Your Intention. Yet Animals Have No Religion, No Constitution. Basic Nature Has Endowed Them With The Faculty Of Discernment. It Is The Same For Humans.
