More quotes by Dalai Lama
Because the twentieth century was a century of violence, let us make the twenty-first a century of dialogue.
Dalai Lama
To defy the authority of empirical evidence is to disqualify oneself as someone worthy of critical engagement in a dialogue.
Dalai Lama
Share your knowledge. It is a way to achieve immortality.
Dalai Lama
The ultimate authority must always rest with the individual's own reason and critical analysis.
Dalai Lama
I have never been any place where I was not first invited. And upon invitation, if I feel that there is potential for making some contribution to humanity, I will comply in spite of being tired.
Dalai Lama
There is a saying in Tibetan, 'Tragedy should be utilized as a source of strength.' No matter what sort of difficulties, how painful experience is, if we lose our hope, that's our real disaster.
Dalai Lama
If science proves facts that conflict with Buddhist understanding, Buddhism must change accordingly. We should always adopt a view that accords with the facts.
Dalai Lama
Your friend, your enemy, your neutral all are equal. Genuine compassion is unbiased.
Dalai Lama
A balanced and skillful approach to life, taking care to avoid extremes, becomes a very important factor in conducting one's everyday existence.
Dalai Lama
Everything is interconnected. My interest is linked to everyone else's. Our survival and future are linked. Therefore the destruction of your so-called enemy is actually the destruction of your self.
Dalai Lama
If there is no solution to the problem then don't waste time worrying about it. If there is a solution to the problem then don't waste time worrying about it.
Dalai Lama
When we are motivated by compassion and wisdom, the results of our actions benefit everyone, not just our individual selves or some immediate convenience. When we are able to recognize and forgive ignorant actions of the past, we gain strength to constructively solve the problems of the present.
Dalai Lama
If we don't understand phenomena, we are more likely to do things to harm ourselves and others.
Dalai Lama
I believe deeply that we must find a new spirituality... in such a way that all people of good will could adhere to it... We ought to promote this concept with the help of scientists... It could lead us to what we are looking for.
Dalai Lama
I consider myself as a free spokesman for the people.
Dalai Lama
Spirit is a land of high white peaks and glittering jewel-like lakes and flowers. Life is sparse and sounds travel great distances.
Dalai Lama
Anger is the ultimate destroyer of your own peace of mind
Dalai Lama
Anything that contradicts experience and logic should be abandoned.
Dalai Lama
We need to find secular ways to cultivate warm-heartedness. We need secular ways to educate ourselves about inner values. The source of a happy life is within us. Trouble makers in many parts of the world are often quite well educated, so it is not just education that we need. We need to pay attention to inner values.
Dalai Lama
You must not hate those who do wrong or harmful things but with compassion, you must do what you can to stop them — for they are harming themselves, as well as those who suffer from their actions.
Dalai Lama
