- Our negative actions create our own suffering in the future
- Two causes of suffering -- past negative actions and current negative emotions
- Solution to suffering: Develop positive states of mind
- Patience
- Dalai Lama's reason for not dropping bombs on China
- It is our human right to be happy
- Every sentient being has the innate potential for joy, bliss, fulfillment, perfection
- Why we hate ourselves
- Buddha Nature
- Buddha -- Sanskrit meaning "fully awake"
- Four Noble Truths
- Positive states of mind are what define us and are who we really are
