We Can Make This A More Peaceful

The Best Way Of Fulfilling Your Own Interest Is To Take Care Of Others.

When We Think Carefully, We See That The Brief Elation We Experience When Appeasing Sensual Impulses May Not Be Very Different From What The Drug Addict Feels When Indulging His Or Her Habit. Temporary Relief Is Soon Followed By A Craving For More. And In Just The Same Way That Taking Drugs In The End Only Causes Trouble, So, Too, Does Much Of What We Undertake To Fulfill Our Immediate Sensory Desires.

Even When A Person Has All Of Life's Comforts - Good Food, Good Shelter, A Companion - He Or She Can Still Become Unhappy When Encountering A Tragic Situation.

I Always Emphasize That It Is Much Safer And Better To Keep One's Own Religious Faith. The Other Major Religions Are Thousands Of Years Old And Have Long Traditions.
