I believe that the basic nature of human beings is gentle and compassionate. It is therefore in our own interest to encourage that nature, to make it live within us, to leave room for it to develop. If on the contrary we use violence, it is as if we voluntarily obstruct the positive side of human nature and prevent its evolution.

Those who have little interest in spirituality shouldn’t think that human inner values don’t apply to you. The inner peace of an alert and calm mind are the source of real happiness and good health. Our human intelligence tells us which of our emotions are positive and helpful and which are damaging and to be restrained or avoided.
Dalai Lama

Of course, there are different truths on different levels. Things are true relative to other things long and short relate to each other, high and low, and so on. But is there any absolute truth? Something self-sufficient, independently true in itself? I don't think so.
Dalai Lama
Image
If indeed the qualities such as love, patience, tolerance, and forgiveness are what happiness consists in, and if it is also true that compassion, defined as concern for others, is both the source and the fruit of these qualities, then the more we are compassionate, the more we provide for our own happiness.
Dalai Lama

Consider that not only do negative thoughts and emotions destroy our experience of peace, they also undermine our health.

For those who may not find happiness to exercise religious faith, it's okay to remain a radical atheist it's absolutely an individual right, but the important thing is with a compassionate heart - then no problem.
