Touch your heart or let your heart be touched and you will discover how much warmth and gentleness is there, how much space. This feeling turns into a longing to be fully human. It turns into a longing to be there for friends in trouble and to be of real help for our planet.

As society grows more intelligent there seems to be less happiness and more trouble, because intelligence is not the same as wisdom. You can find happiness by being modest, simple and truthful. By this way of living, you will discover your original pure nature and the innate wisdom of the universe.
If we remain at the mercy of moods, of hope and of fear aroused by the outer world, we lose out inner consistency of character. Then our experiences are merely effects produced by the outside world, not experiences evoked by our own true nature.
