This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.
Physical comforts cannot subdue mental suffering, and if we look closely, we can see that those who have many possessions are not necessarily happy. In fact, being wealthy often brings even more anxiety.
Look at situations from all angles, and you will become more open.
The ultimate authority must always rest with the individual's own reason and critical analysis.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
All religions try to benefit people, with the same basic message of the need for love and compassion, for justice and honesty, for contentment.
