COMPASSION

Affirmation of life is the spiritual act by which man ceases to live thoughtlessly and begins to devote himself to his life
with reverence in order to give it true value.

In order to learn how to live a good life, first of all you must teach yourself to think good thoughts.

People don’t think it's base to eat animals because false teachers have convinced them God created animals for their exploitation. This is a lie.

In all of life’s important questions we’re always alone and the true story of our life can only very rarely be understood by others.

There never has been, and cannot be, a good life without self-control.

Only the person who convinces himself first that he can’t restrain himself finds it impossible to do so.

If a person believes his strength is in his physical rather than his spiritual life, he’s like a bird that walks from place to place.

Only in suffering do we begin to live a spiritual life.

True faith does not need great temples, golden ornaments, or organ music. True faith comes into your heart out of silence and solitude.

Peace is the highest material good of human society.

When you’re suffering, don’t look for comfort in temples or books, look for it within yourself. Only the God who lives within you can help.

People need to seek ways to enrich their souls, but they put all their effort into thinking of how they can call more things theirs.

If you do not sell your soul to the devil, you will not make money.   - Russian Proverb

People need to seek ways to enrich their souls, but they put all their effort into thinking of how they can call more things theirs.

Compassion for all living things is the most trustworthy and reliable method for attaining virtue.

Compassion for all living things is the most trustworthy and reliable method for attaining virtue.

Nothing will beautify your life and the life of others like establishing kindness as a habit.
