“By etymology, the word Dharma refers to that which protects everyone, nourishes everyone, prevents decline and helps to achieve a state of high and prosperous existence. All living beings are protected through Dharma.”
“Actually, all of us are different and we each have a unique gift or special talent. However, if we do not want to follow Dharma and decide to use it only for ourselves, for our selfish purposes, the happiness we will achieve will be of short duration and lower quality.”
“Another characteristic of purity is the truth. Dharma is rooted in truth. Honesty, justice, simplicity and sincerity are only modifications or expressions of truth.
The person who is really endowed with truth and other features of purity will find it much easier to walk along the spiritual path and find lasting happiness.”
“We are not this body that was born at a certain point in the past and will die at a certain point in the future. Rather, we are spiritual entities that live forever, passing from one physical form to another.
That is why we must focus our attention on activities that nourish the spirit. True happiness cannot be achieved if one only tries to satisfy one’s body or the ego that is related to the body.”
