The Real Test Of Compassion Is Not

The Highest Happiness Is When One Reaches The Stage Of Liberation, At Which There Is No More Suffering.

From A Buddhist Point Of View, The Actual Experience Of Death Is Very Important. Although How Or Where We Will Be Reborn Is Generally Dependent On Karmic Forces, Our State Of Mind At The Time Of Death Can Influence The Quality Of Our Next Rebirth. So At The Moment Of Death, In Spite Of The Great Variety Of Karmas We Have Accumulated, If We Make A Special Effort To Generate A Virtuous State Of Mind, We May Strengthen And Activate A Virtuous Karma, And So Bring About A Happy Rebirth.

One Must Be Compassionate To One's Self Before External Compassion.

Friends, Genuine Friends, Are Attracted By A Warm Heart, Not Money, Not Power. A Genuine Friend Considers You As Just Another Human Being, As A Brother Or Sister, And Shows Affection On That Level, Regardless Of Whether You Are Rich Or Poor, Or In A High Position; That Is A Genuine Friend.

The Most Important Thing Is To Have A Sense Of Responsibility, Commitment, And Concern For Each Of Our Fellow Human Beings.
