weekly dharma quote 7




There is nothing more worthy than the virtue of selflessness.

Selflessness unites people.

It is a healing herb that unifies strangers and brings families together.

It is the love for others thatis higher than self-love;

It is our only hope.

weekly dharma quote 6




There is nothing more dreadful
than the habit of doubt.

Doubt separates people.

It is a poison that disintergrates
friendships and break up
pleasant relations.

It is a thorn that irritates
and hurts;

It is a sword that kills.
