我們所有人彼此之間可能沒有血緣關係。然而，因為我們有相似的因，因為我們有相似的願力和願望，我們就連結在一起。我們因修持所以連結，我們因願力所以連結。因此，我們彼此都是屬於一個家庭。

噶瑪巴

All of us may not be related to each other by blood. Nevertheless, because we have a similar cause, because we all have similar aspirations and wishes, we are bound by that. We are bound by what we practice, we are bound by what we aspire to. So therefore, we are all another family for each other.

簡單來自於內心。每當我們陷入混亂、迷失時，各種困難的思緒和情況都會出現。當我們冷靜下來，無論我們是不是佛教徒，最終我們都能夠找到可以在生活中運用得到簡單合理的中間之道。佛法實際就是把所有事情簡單化，以便我們可以將它運用於日常生活中。

噶瑪巴

The source of simplicity comes from the heart. Whenever we are in turmoil, confusion, all kinds of difficult thoughts and circumstances arise. When we calm ourselves down, whether we are Buddhist or not, in the end we can find a middle ground where we can say that applying the simple things in our lives makes sense. In Buddhism, everything is really about making things simple, so that we can apply them in our everyday life.
