| Subconscious anger, if it has a parallel in Buddhist writings, would have more to do with what is called mental unhappiness or dissatisfaction, in the sense that they are regarded as the sources of anger and hostility. We can see it in terms of a lack of awareness, as well as an active misconstruing of reality. |

| Quote of the moment |
| Natural environment sustains the life of all beings universally. Trees are referred to in accounts of the principal events of Buddha's life. His mother leaned against a tree for support as she gave birth to him. He attained enlightenment seated beneath a tree, and finally passed away as trees stood witness overhead. |

| Quote of the moment |
| A society in which everyone works is not necessarily a free society and may indeed be a slave society; on the other hand, a society in which there is widespread economic insecurity can turn freedom into a barren and vapid right for the millions of people. |
| ~ Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962), U.S. author, speaker, and First Lady. As quoted in Eleanor: The Years Alone, ch. 3, by Joseph P. Lash (1972). Said in 1948, responding to the representative from the Soviet Union who criticized the existence of unemployment in the United States. ~ |

| Quote of the moment |
| To develop genuine devotion, you must know the meaning of teachings. The main emphasis in Buddhism is to transform the mind, and transformation depends on meditation. In order to meditate correctly you must have knowledge, and communities, too, must be uplifted through knowledge. |
| ~ The Path to Tranquility, January 23, 14th Dalai Lama ~ |
