Humanity does not need more suffering to make it understand but what is needed is that you should be aware of your own actions, that you should awaken to your own ignorance and sorrow and so bring about in yourself compassion and tolerance. You should not be concerned with punishments and rewards but with the eradication in yourself of those causes that manifest themselves in violence and in hate, in antagonism and ill will.
人类不需要更多的苦难来醒悟，需要的是你觉知自己的行为，需要你清醒地意识到自己的愚昧和悲伤，进而在自己内心唤起慈悲和宽容。你关心的不应当是奖惩，而是根除你自己身上那些表现为暴力、仇恨、敌对和恶意的根源。
In murdering the murderer you become like him; you become the criminal. A wrong is not righted through wrong means; only through right means can a right end be accomplished. If you would have peace you must employ peaceful means, and mass murder, war, can only lead to further murder, further suffering.
去杀害凶手，你就会变得跟凶手一样，你也变成了罪犯。错误不可能通过错误的手段得到纠正，只有通过正确的方式才能实现正确的结果。如果你想要拥有和平，就必须使用和平的方式，而大规模的屠杀、战争，只能导致更多的杀戮、更多的苦难。
There can be no love through bloodshed; an army is not an instrument of peace. Only good will and compassion can bring peace to the world, not might and cunning nor mere legislation.
流血无法带来爱，军队也不是和平的工具。只有善意和慈悲才能为世界带来和平，而不是强权和诡计，也不是单纯的立法。
You are responsible for the misery and disaster that exist, you who in your daily life are cruel, oppressive, greedy, ambitious. Suffering will continue till you eradicate in yourself those causes that breed passion, greed and ruthlessness. Have peace and compassion in your heart and you will find the right answer to your questions.
你对现存的不幸和灾难负有责任，你在你的日常生活中就是残忍、暴虐、贪婪、野心勃勃的。除非根除你自己身上那些导致狂热、贪婪和无情的肇因，否则苦难还将继续。让你的心中充满和平与慈悲，你就会为你的问题找到正确的答案。
