“In order to achieve peace, tranquility and real friendship, we must minimize anger and cultivate kindness and a warm heart…
You may be rich, powerful, and well-educated, but without these healthy feelings of kindness and compassion there will be no peace within yourself, no peace within your family-even your children suffer. Kindness is essential to mental peace…The big question is whether or not we can practice kindness and peace. “
