Aphorisms

By Supreme Master Ching Hai

For those around us, we should try our best to make them happy and feel contented; this is the most important.

Suffering is not created by circumstances; poverty does not make us feel pained. It is because we do not know that we are God that we are affected.

Only when the mind is relaxed, we can think freely.

When we serve the multitude, God also serves us. Such is the law on which the universe functions.

Anytime we are required to work, let us coordinate the work. Then, we will feel ourselves progressing in our spiritual life, and we will be more humble and tolerant. The more we work and contribute, the faster we will progress. There is no need for anyone to praise us, we know it ourselves.

Don't be so frustrated, just live every moment with all your heart. Whatever you have to do, do it with total devotion. Have faith in God and the grand plan of the entire universe.

If we serve with total devotion, we are forever in contentment, and feeling fulfilled. We won't think of demanding anything, as we feel we have everything in abundance. faith in God and the grand plan of the entire universe.
