My very dear Agnetha,I am sorry about the other day. I meant to come down to speak to you, but I got distracted. Thank you very much for coming, I am very happy to have met with you again.

It’s fantastic that she was able to do that. It’s true that the attitude of using your own suffering to take on the pain of others definitely helps you to bear pain and make it less.

My most dear, most kind, most precious wish-fulfilling Mark,Thank you for your email. I checked regarding your question:

My dear Munsel,I want to explain the meaning of Munsel, it is to eliminate the darkness of ignorance, not just yours but every sentient beings’.HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA.You shouldn’t think of only your darkness and ignorance.

My very dear William,How are you? I hope you got my cards from your daughter. I am sending you these books. Please enjoy reading them. Maybe you can read them before going to bed. You could also read the books in your dreams.

My suggestion is that you can’t expect to make them happy. This is very difficult to do, and you might lose the chance to do other meaningful things and benefit other sentient beings.
