Janna Quotes: thoughtful quotes for reflection and daily practice.

What we are anxious about are those who violently defend their beliefs. What we need is objective knowledge . What we are concerned about are those who exaggerate their beliefs. What we need is love and kindness amongst people. What we fear are those who hate each other because of their different beliefs. What we need is justice. What we are afraid of are those who ignore justice and only care about their beliefs...

Every time we come into a new environment, we should practice finding out the smallest and the biggest things there, so that we can be aware of everything around us, without missing anything.

The rich usually find somewhere "worth living" to buy houses, because of beautiful scenes, nice weather, comfortable and modern utilities. However, the places worth living in are places where people can show each other their respect and kindness. A place worth living in is not a place where people compete with each other to get rich. It must be a place where the rich and the poor live together in a respectful and helpful way.

We’re scared of sadness. We’re scared of suffering. We love joyfulness. We look for happiness. However, we don’t know what happiness is, so we get lost. Sometimes, we go to the end of our way and we face misery. If we go the right way, we will find true happiness in the end. Hopefully, all people will go the right way to have true love and true happiness.

It’s not that easy to love others. People don’t love others by nature, except when they love us first, like parents and family. Normal people love others passively. Only wise and ethical people will “train” themselves to love all beings and all things. We need to tell ourselves, force ourselves, command ourselves to love all. Day by day, love will appear in our hearts gradually. And then miracles will appear to our lives.

If we’re moral, if we’re grateful to our leaders for protecting the country, then we should always be careful and observant. We should always foresee dangers and risks, so as to prevent them early. Our carefulness will keep the people around us safe and sound.

When we’re blessed because we’ve contributed a lot to life, then happiness, good fortune, and money will come to us naturally and respectfully. On the other hand, we may cook up many schemes to gain for ourselves, and be successful at first, but sooner or later, things still return to the starting point. Be cautious when getting benefits, be enthusiastic when contributing to life. That’s the true wisdom.

Life has so many kinds of entertainments. There are sinful entertainments, and there are noble ones. However, we should be realistic and not play too much. Xuân Diệu, a poet, once said: "Bread and butter don't play with artists."

If we know our good wishes for people are the keys to open the doors to many good things in the future, why don't we try to build that cheerful habit? It really costs nothing.
