Ideas make people wonder; emotions make people suffer.
When one is skillful in letting go, both ideas and emotions will make you happy and peaceful.
The knowledgeable are so proud; the wise are so humble.
Pride makes people fear; humbleness makes people friendly.
Fear makes hate; friendliness makes love. So be the wise.
Actually, I want to help suffering people who are even rich but lonely, bored, tense, stressful and depressed and so forth. And I have already felt this way and I have already met those who get suffered from such psychological problems. I’m hopeful that the book I’m going to publish will help people in some way. I’m happy to contribute my heart to humanity and to serve the world the best I can.
I thank all, from my chief abbot to the listeners and foreign students and my special thanks to the donors from South Korea and from California, United States. Without those generous donors, this book would not such soon be published.
I wish you would get spiritual benefit from this book. May all the beings be happy and peaceful forever.
