Tomorrow Will Take Care of Itself

Interviewer:
"You've said in one of your most popular books Living Buddha Living Christ. What do you see the similarities between Buddha and Christ?"

Peace Activist:
"Jesus Christ is a Buddha of the West. And his teachings are also about understanding and compassion. In the Gospel there is also the teaching of living happily in the present moment."

Interviewer:
"Yes."

Peace Activist:
"In the Gospel according to Matthew, he said that... 'Don't worry about tomorrow. Tomorrow will take care of itself.' It's very clear. And 'Give us the bread of today'. "

"We care about today. We live today. And if we know how to handle the present moment, we don't have to worry much about the future. If the present moment has peace and joy and happiness, and then the future will have also. "
