+We work hard to bring happiness and peace into our lives, but there is no way
+to achieve real peace through material goods alone. Perhaps we can accomplish
+a little artificial joy and happiness, but these don’t last long. Truly
+substantial and lasting happiness and peace can be established only by
+exercising our inner mind with the precious Dharma teachings. This is the
+purpose of our meditation practice, and this is what Jigten Sumgön taught.
+Mental afflictions and neuroses can be pacified only through the Dharma.
+Dharma is the ultimate remedy for confusion.
