Gautam Buddha International Peace Award | Nepal Buddhist Federation | Nepal Buddhist Federation

I learned to gain my happiness reducing my desires.
Mere learning is of no avail without actual practice. The learned man who does not practice is like a colorful flower without scent.
Do not cultivate any non virtuous action - cultivate only perfect virtuous action. Subdue your own mind: this is the teaching of Lord Buddha.
Science without religion is blind. Religion without science is lame.
Letting go of desire is gaining the real happiness and satisfaction in our daily life.
Why be unhappy about something. If it can be remedied, And what is the use of being unhappy about something, If it cannot be remedied.
My religious is Love and Compassion. H.H. 14th DHL
I have learned to seek my happiness by limiting my desires, rather than attempting to satisfy them.
Mere learning is of no avail without actual practice. The learned man who does not practice, is like a colorful flower without scent.
Do not cultivate any non virtuous action, cultivate only perfect virtuous action. Subdue your own mind: this is the teaching of Lord Buddha.
