More quotes by Dalai Lama
Ultimately, the reason why love and compassion bring the greatest happiness is simply that our nature cherishes them above all else. The need for love lies at the very foundation of human existence.
Dalai Lama
It is important to understand that counterproducti ve actions of body, speech and mind do not arise of their own accord, but spring up in dependence on our motivation. Faulty states of mind give rise to faulty actions. To control negative physical and verbal actions, we need to tame our minds.
Dalai Lama
Do something that scares you every day. You have nothing to lose but fear itself.
Dalai Lama
The need for love lies at the very foundation of human existence.

Dalai Lama
I feel that a genuine, affectionate smile is very important in our day-to-day lives. How one creates that smile largely depends on one's own attitude. It is illogical to expect smiles from others if one does not smile oneself. Therefore, one can see that many things depend on one's own behaviour.
Dalai Lama
Whether you believe in God or not does not matter much, whether you believe in Buddha or not does not matter so much as a Buddhist, whether you believe in reincarnation or not does not matter so much. You must lead a good life.
Dalai Lama
The most important thing is transforming our minds, for a new way of thinking, a new outlook: we should strive to develop a new inner world.

Dalai Lama
In some cases is keeping your mouth shut the best answer.
Dalai Lama
Good human qualities-honesty, sincerity, a good heart-cannot be bought with money, nor can they be produced my machines, but only by the mind itself. We can call this the inner light, or God's blessing, or human qualitity. This is the essence of mankind.
Dalai Lama
World economies are always so tenuous and we are subject to so many losses in life, but a compassionate attitude is something we can always carry with us.
Dalai Lama
Looking at the pattern of our existence from birth to death, we can see the way in which we are fundamentally nurtured by other's affection.
