More quotes by Dalai Lama
Although individuals may be highly intelligent, they are sometimes dogged by skepticism and doubts. They are clever, but they tend to be hesitant and skeptical and are never really able to settle down. These people are the least receptive.
Dalai Lama
But when it comes to democratic political parties, I prefer that monks and nuns not join them - in order to ensure proper democratic practice.
Dalai Lama
My faith helps me overcome such negative emotions and find my equilibrium.
Dalai Lama
Spend 5 minutes at the beginning of each day remembering we all want the same things (to be happy and be loved) and we are all connected to one another.
Dalai Lama
For those who may not find happiness to exercise religious faith, it's okay to remain a radical atheist it's absolutely an individual right, but the important thing is with a compassionate heart - then no problem.
Dalai Lama
PeaceĀ starts within each one of us. When we have inner peace, we can be at peace with those around us.
Dalai Lama
The antidote to hatred in the heart, the source of violence, is tolerance.
Dalai Lama
We have a responsibility to look after our planet. It is our only home.
Dalai Lama
One can be deceived by three types of laziness: of indolence, which is the wish to procrastinate the laziness of inferiority, which is doubting your capabilities and the laziness that is attachment to negative actions, or putting great effort into non-virtue.
Dalai Lama
If you are honest, truthful, and transparent, people trust you. If people trust you, you have no grounds for fear, suspicion or jealousy.
Dalai Lama
There are differences between us. But it doesn't make sense to emphasize that, because my future and yours is connected with everyone else's. So we have to take seriously our concern for all of humanity. When we focus on our individuality, humanity inevitably suffers. And once humanity suffers, each one of us will also suffer.
Dalai Lama
World peace begins with inner peace.
Dalai Lama
There is no way to escape death, it is just like trying to escape by four great mountains touching sky. There is no escape from these four mountains of birth, old age, sickness and death.
Dalai Lama
In some cases is keeping your mouth shut the best answer.
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
I believe that at every level of society the key to a happier world is the growth of compassion. We do not need to become religious, nor do we need to believe in an ideology. All that is necessary is for each of us to develop our good human qualities.
Dalai Lama
The whole purpose of religion is to facilitate love and compassion, patience, tolerance, humility, and forgiveness.
Dalai Lama
When we talk about global crisis, or a crisis of humanity, we cannot blame a few politicians, a few fanatics, or a few troublemakers. The whole of humanity has a responsibility because it is our business, human business. I call this a sense of universal responsibility. That is a crucial point.
Dalai Lama
Without love we could not survive. Human beings are social creatures, and a concern for each other is the very basis of our life together.
Dalai Lama
Know the rules well, so you can break them effectively.
