More quotes by Dalai Lama
In our own case, we don't consider the loss of a monastery or a monument the end of our entire way of life. If one monastery is destroyed, sometimes it happens.
Dalai Lama
All beings come from a mother's womb. We should have a clear realization of the oneness of all humanity.
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
No matter what part of the world we come from, we are all basically the same human beings. We all seek happiness and try to avoid suffering. We have the same basic human needs and concerns. All of us human beings want freedom and the right to determine our own destiny as individuals and as peoples. That is human nature.
Dalai Lama
If you want change, create the causes.
Dalai Lama
When we meet real tragedy in life, we can react in two ways - either by losing hope and falling into self-destructive habits, or by using the challenge to find our inner strength.
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
The proper use of our intelligence and knowledge is to effect changes from within to develop a good heart.
Dalai Lama
If one's life is simple, contentment has to come. Simplicity is extremely important for happiness. Having few desires, feeling satisfied with what you have, is very vital: satisfaction with just enough food, clothing, and shelter to protect yourself from the elements.
Dalai Lama
As you breathe in, cherish yourself. As you breathe out, cherish all Beings.
Dalai Lama
Even when a person has all of life's comforts - good food, good shelter, a companion - he or she can still become unhappy when encountering a tragic situation.
Dalai Lama
It seems to me that self confidence and the ability to stand one's ground are essential if we want to succeed in life. I am not talking of stupid self-assurance but of an awareness of our inner potential, a certainty that we can always correct our behavior, improve ourselves, enrich ourselves, and that things are never hopeless
Dalai Lama
The essence of any religion is good heart. Sometimes I call love and compassion a universal religion. This is my religion.
Dalai Lama
The point of life is happiness.
Dalai Lama
Peace in the world depends on peace in the hearts of individuals this depends on each of us practising ethics by disciplining our negative thoughts and emotions, and developing basic spiritual qualities.
Dalai Lama
A new way of thinking has become the necessary condition for responsible living and acting. If we maintain obsolete values and beliefs, a fragmented consciousness and self-centered spirit, we will continue to hold onto outdated goals and behaviors.
Dalai Lama
Anger, pride and competence are our real enemies.
Dalai Lama
If we make consistent effort, based on proper education, we can change the world.
Dalai Lama
When seen from outer space, our beautiful blue planet has no national boundaries.
Dalai Lama
We had a rule in Tibet that anyone proposing a new invention had to guarentee that it was beneficial, or at least harmless, for seven generations of humans before it could be adopted.
