More quotes by Dalai Lama
I believe deeply that we must find, all of us together, a new spirituality.
Dalai Lama
Our greatest duty and our main responsibility is to help others. But please, if you can't help them, would you please not hurt them.
Dalai Lama
I find that because of modern technological evolution and our global economy, and as a result of the great increase in population, our world has greatly changed: it has become much smaller. However, our perceptions have not evolved at the same pace we continue to cling to old national demarcations and the old feelings of 'us' and 'them'.
Dalai Lama
In some cases, lack of full knowledge or holistic view, that is also part of the problem. But mainly lack of moral principle. So long you have this genuine sort of concern, well being of other. That's the foundation of moral principle.
Dalai Lama
Old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An old day passes, a new day arrives. The important thing is to make it meaningful: a meaningful friend - or a meaningful day.
Dalai Lama
Since periods of great change, such as the present one, come so rarely in human history, it is up to each of us to make the best use of our time to help create a happier world.
Dalai Lama
A truly peaceful mind is very sensitive, very aware.
Dalai Lama
Internal peace is an essential first step to achieving peace in the world. How do you cultivate it? It's very simple. In the first place by realizing clearly that all mankind is one, that human beings in every country are members of one and the same family.
Dalai Lama
If you have a particular faith or religion, that is good. But you can survive without it.
Dalai Lama
The Dalai Lama should not be partisan either, should remain above.
Dalai Lama
If we wish to ensure everyone’s peace and happiness we need to cultivate a healthy respect for the diversity of our peoples and cultures, founded on an understanding of this fundamental sameness of all human beings
Dalai Lama
I feel that the essence of spiritual practice is your attitude toward others. When you have a pure, sincere motivation, then you have right attitude toward others based on kindness, compassion, love and respect.
Dalai Lama
Even without a religion, we can become a good human being.
Dalai Lama
If there are sound reasons or bases for the points you demand, then there is no need for violence. On the other hand, when there is no sound reason that concessions should be made to you but mainly your own desire, then reason cannot work and you have to rely on force. Thus using force is not a sign of strength but rather a sign of weakness.
Dalai Lama
World peace begins with inner peace.
Dalai Lama
China has to go along with world trends. That's democracy, liberty, individual freedom. China sooner or later has to go that way. It cannot go backward.
Dalai Lama
Whatever the intellectual quality of the education given our children, it is vital that it include elements of love and compassion, for nothing guarantees that knowledge alone will be truly useful to human beings.
Dalai Lama
I believe that constant effort, tireless effort, pursuing clear goals with sincere effort is the only way
Dalai Lama
I feel like my life is something purposeful. Many people have told me that after they listen to my talk, some point which I made, they got certain ideas and their whole life is changed. They are happier.
Dalai Lama
It is important to pray for peace. . . But you must also take actions to make that happen. Every single day.
Dalai Lama
