      Muslim or anyother, (Allah) spoke about the same thing just different language and time. Peace doesn't belong to anyone or thing it's within you.

    1) Self awareness. Ask your self "why do you need to do this? Is it helpful to you, is it helpful to others?".
    2) Self discipline. Know the priority and say no to less important things.
    3) Know that time is limited. Look at time as you look at money. Then you will use it seriously. Money can be earned. But time cannot.
    4) ask "is it really necessary". For example, scrolling social media vs talking to your kids
    5) know what matters to you. Whats the most impt thing to do today to achieve the larger purpose?

    After my husband passed away last March, I realized life is so short and fragile. Thus, I am now gradually learning to say no to things or persons that don't appreciate me and that stirs up negative feelings in me.

    Thanks a lot Sir for this Valuable session🙏🙏❤❤. I needed this very very much.
    7:51-8:30 The most important thing in your life is the learning process,that is what helps to achieve more success.Learn to DISCARD the unimportant,fancy things in life and Practice SELF-DISCIPLINE.
    9:57-10:41 - Respect time. It is more valuable than money. Money can be earned again but Lost time is never found again.
    Ask this magic question to yourself before doing anything :- "IS IT REALLY NECESSARY? Will it even help me ? " Channelize your valuable time in doing something valuable.
    Saying NO can be really hard but in order to achieve a happy and calmer life, a more disciplined life. we've to say NO to the unimportant things in life . PRACTICE these little tips and you will be happy in your life

These days a many people try to promote their religion among the others exept try to get the core values in it. I respect this monk for without promoting the religion and try to give message to whole world according to buddhas real teachings.
