    A source of trouble is our unruly minds. We can counter that by developing a warm heart. We need to effect an inner transformation, to understand that love and affection are a real source of joy.

        It’s our attitude which determines things as hurdles or not. Those who confront these challenges gracefully enjoy life’s journey to maximum.

        One can reach that ecstasy, those lotus flowers in your inner being can bloom to highest potential only when mind becomes calm & pure in all respects. Such a smile can arise from a peaceful state of mind. And peace of mind comes under the shadow of compassion & warm-heartednesspic.twitter.com/5qPYvonWMG

        Treat every person as an individual, not their race and remember small acts of kindness make everyone's day brighter.

        Hard it is to train the mind, which goes where it likes and does what it wants. An unruly mind suffers and causes suffering whatever it does. But a well-trained mind brings health and happiness. Buddhapic.twitter.com/2s2agfMiBq

        Meditating is one avenue available to us that will allow us to achieve this goal. Prayer is another. Combine the two, and you have a powerful tool.

        "A source of trouble is our unruly minds" would be a good thing to remind ourselves of every day. I heard Vince Vaughn talk about fear once. "So much of fear is the woods we've constructed around us, and not the path that takes us to our destination."

        I guess it *might* be the first time the Dalai Lama and Vince Vaughn are mentioned in one tweet 😀 but still, wisdom is wisdom, whatever the source.

        We need to move beyond aggression and confrontation. They get us nowhere; and this is a time of crisis.
