ADVICE BY LAMA ZOPA RINPOCHE
"If we take care of others, work for their happiness, we are
automatically taking care of ourselves. Trying to make others happy is
the best way of loving ourselves. Similarly, if we harm others, we harm
ourselves. Harming others does not bring us peace and happiness, only
misery and grief, now and in the future. Bringing happiness to others
is the best way of bringing happiness to ourselves, it follows
naturally. It happens by the way. Things we do that bring happiness to
others have a beneficial effect on our minds."

MAY ALL BEINGS BE HAPPY!
