You can't change life, but you can change your relationship to it. Not my problem or your problem, but our shared problem. Put beautiful qualities between you and the other: peace, kindness, respect. In between is where the action is in life. The filter of mistrust. What you see in the other, what you pay attention to, grows in them; wh ...

The Dhamma talk this evening is on the nature of suffering, the First Noble Truth in Buddhism.

His talk is on the same theme - how dana, generosity, can teach us the beauty and meaning of life, in giving not to get, but to express the energy of love, kindness and compassion.
