- GesheKelsang: @c4chaos Happiness & Suffering r states of mind. The source of happiness is inner peace. If mind is peaceful, we shall be happy all the time

- GesheKelsang: Attainments depend upon the practice of Dharma, but because we are so attached to worldly activities we don't have a strong wish to practise

- GesheKelsang: All suffering, all fear, and all unfulfilled wishes are the result of negative karma, and all negative karma arises from self-cherishing.
