Quote

Generally speaking, if a human being never shows anger, then I think something's wrong. He's not right in the brain.

Image
Humanity happy, I get benefit. Humanity in state of trouble, or violence, I cannot escape from that.
Dalai Lama
Image
Even more important than the warmth and affection we receive, is the warmth and affection we give. It is by giving warmth and affection, by having a genuine sense of concern for others, in other words through compassion, that we gain the conditions for genuine happiness. More important than being loved, therefore, is to love.
Dalai Lama
Image
Today, more than ever before, life must be characterized by a sense of Universal responsibility, not only nation to nation and human to human, but also human to other forms of life.

Now is the time when your action is practice.

I think governments can't do much.
Dalai Lama
Image
Humans are not machines-we are something more. We have feeling and experience. Material comforts are not sufficient to satisfy us. We need something deeper-human affection.
Dalai Lama
Image
In the present circumstances, no one can afford to assume that someone else will solve their problems. Every individual has a responsibility to help guide our global family in the right direction. Good wishes are not sufficient we must become actively engaged.
Dalai Lama
Image
Compassion is something we can count on. Even if we face economic problems and our fortunes decline, we can still share our compassion with our fellow human beings. National and global economies are subject to many ups and downs, but through them all we can retain a compassionate attitude that will carry us through.
Dalai Lama
Image
Now you are on the Buddhist way. Keep up your meditation, as there is no instant illumination. The mind moves slowly into this. Do not become attached to your method. When, in the course of your meditation, your consciousness will have expanded and been transformed, you will then recognize that all the ways are valid ways.
Dalai Lama
Image
When something needs to be done in the world to rectify the wrongs, if one is really concerned with benefiting others, one needs to be engaged, involved. This is action out of compassion.
Dalai Lama
Image
True compassion is not just an emotional response, but a firm commitment founded on reason. Therefore, a truly compassionate attitude toward others does not change, even if they behave negatively. Through universal altruism, you develop a feeling of responsibility for others: the wish to help them actively overcome their problems.
Dalai Lama
Image
Universal responsibility is the key to human survival. It is the best foundation for world peace.
Dalai Lama
Image
The source of peace is within us so also the source of war. And the real enemy is within us, and not outside. The source of war is not the existence of nuclear weapons or other arms. It is the minds of human beings who decide to push the button and to use those arms out of hatred, anger or greed.
Dalai Lama
Image
I do not see any reason why animals should be slaughtered to serve as human diet when there are so many substitutes. After all, man can live without meat.
Dalai Lama
Image
I really do not want to carry some kind of party function.
Dalai Lama
Image
Whether one believes in a religion or not, and whether one believes in rebirth or not, there isn't anyone who doesn't appreciate kindness and compassion.
Dalai Lama
Image
Chairman Mao once said that political power comes from the barrel of a gun. He was only partly right: power that comes from the barrel of a gun can be effective only for a short time. In the end, peoples love for truth, justice, freedom, and democracy will triumph. No matter what governments do, the human spirit will always prevail.

I often tease young people about their concern for how they look more important is inner beauty - compassion, affection and respect.

Today is the right day to love, believe, do, and mostly, live.
Dalai Lama

Not only can I not recall my experiences in my previous lives, sometimes I can't even remember what I did yesterday.
