Family


"We build deep and loving family relationships by 
doing simple things together. We love our family 
with all our heart, soul, and mind. And as we do, 
our ordinary family is transformed into an 
extraordinary one."

inner values , basis of a happy life . . .

We all want to live a happy life and have a right to do so, whether through work or spiritual practice. I’m subject to destructive emotions like anger and jealousy the same as you, but we all have potential for good too. However, our existing education system is oriented towards material development; neglecting inner values. Consequently we lack a clear awareness of the inner values that are the basis of a happy life.

Between You and God

“People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered: 
Forgive them anyway. 

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives: 
Be kind anyway. 

If you are successful you will win some false friends and true enemies: Succeed anyway. 

If you are honest and frank people will try to cheat you:
 Be honest anyway.

What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight:
 Build anyway. 

If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous of you:
 Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, will often be forgotten by tomorrow:
 Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough:
 Give your best anyway. 

You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God. 
It was never between you and them anyway.”

Key to Happiness


The key to happiness is inner peace.

The greatest obstacles to inner peace are disturbing emotions
such as anger, attachment,
fear and suspicion,
while love and compassion and
a sense of universal responsibility
are the sources of peace and happiness.

We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves.
