When we are having obstacles, we have the opportunity to turn them into wisdom. Wisdom always grows from obstacles, so do not be afraid of them. Great wisdom is gained if we face them courageously.

The fundamental principle of Buddhism is to truly believe in the cause and effect.

~Khenpo Sangpo Rinpoche~

The nature of greed arises from the fact that the needs are few but the wants are many. One is never content with what one has, always attempting to possess more and more. Therefore, we should learn to treasure what we have, and not try to obtain what we don’t have by force.

~ Khenpo Sangpo Rinpoche ~

Keep a pure heart, and you will have peace and quiet.

~ Khenpo Sangpo Rinpoche ~

Try not to cling to things or situations that we see in the present. The persons who you always want to get rid of now or hate the most may one day become the ones who bring you the greatest accomplishments. Whereas the ones you love and do not want to separated from may be the enemies of past lives. If we understand, and are deeply convinced of the law of causality, we will naturally know how to create positive karmic affinities with others, accepting the changing and impermanent nature of life, and thus stay at ease under all circumstances.

～Khenpo Sangpo Rinpoche ～

When someone harbors resentment, he or she is creating the causes of suffering, and is even unaware of the painful consequences of negative karma. Therefore, we should be compassionate to that person and not fall into the same trap of hatred.
