Quote

I myself feel, and also tell other Buddhists that the question of Nirvana will come later. There is not much hurry. If in day to day life you lead a good life, honesty, with love, with compassion, with less selfishness, then automatically it will lead to Nirvana.

Without your own effort it is impossible for blessings to come.

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

Too much of a self-centered attitude creates mistrust and suspicion in others, which can in turn lead to fear. But if you have more of an open mind, and you cultivate a sense of concern for others' well-being, then, no matter what others' attitudes are, you can keep your inner peace.
Dalai Lama
Image
Peace isn't the mere absence of violence peace must come from inner peace. And inner peace comes from taking others’ interests into account.
Dalai Lama
Image
What unites all beings is their desire for happiness.
Dalai Lama

Dalai Lama
Image
Anger is the real destroyer of our good human qualities an enemy with a weapon cannot destroy these qualities, but anger can. Anger is our real enemy.
Dalai Lama
Image
If we ourselves remain angry and then sing world peace, it has little meaning. First, our individual self must learn peace. This we can practice. Then we can teach the rest of the world.
Dalai Lama
Image
Love and compassion ... are the ultimate source of human happiness, and the need for them lies at the very core of our being.
