“I would like to advise you to cultivate honesty and sincerity. There might be some dishonesty inside us, but we have to determine to defeat it, so we will become more trustworthy and sincere people.

Results of those who are dishonest are very miserable because losing trust is losing everything. Friendship is based on honesty and sincerity. If you lie to your friends, your friendship won't last. In a family, if the husband lies to the wife or the other way around, the family connection will be broken.

Buddhism is the path of truthfulness. Buddhas taught exactly what they had cultivated and experienced. Buddhas had discovered the law of cause and effect and so they said that the law indeed existed.

Everything in life must be built on the basis of truth. You have to sow the seeds of honesty and sincerity, do not lie or harm people, then you will be loved, trusted and valued by other people. You should live honestly and sincerely. Truth is priceless and is the most powerful strength in this world. Nothing has as much power as the truth.”

Take advantage of praise and criticism in life

"...When people praise us, we should reflect on ourselves to avoid hubris, which could cause our failure. When people criticize us, we should also reflect on ourselves to draw lessons and gain experience from it. Then, we will strengthen our inner power and live more resiliently..." ー Thay Thich Truc Thai Minh

Row your boat to the shore of Nirvana

“Life is like the ocean. Each of us is on our own boat in this vast ocean of life and we need to steer it towards the destination we set. The goal of normal people is to achieve success, get wealth, and fulfill worldly desires, whereas the goal of monastics and Buddhists is to reach enlightenment and liberation”. — Thay Thich Truc Thai Minh
