• We should forgive and forget the faults of others. Anger is the enemy of every spiritual aspirant. Anger causes loss of power through every pore of our body. In circumstances when the mind is tempted to get angry, we should control ourselves and resolve firmly, 'No.' We can go to a secluded spot and chant our mantra. The mind will become quiet by itself.

• Since 1981, after our nations severed diplomatic relations, we've worked through a international tribunal to resolve various claims between our countries.

With the nuclear deal done, prisoners released, the time was right to resolve this dispute as well.
