More quotes by Dalai Lama
If you contribute to other peoples happiness, you will find the true meaning of life. The key point is to have a genuine sense of universal responsibility
Dalai Lama
Love and compassion are the pillars of world peace.
Dalai Lama
The source of peace is within us so also the source of war. And the real enemy is within us, and not outside. The source of war is not the existence of nuclear weapons or other arms. It is the minds of human beings who decide to push the button and to use those arms out of hatred, anger or greed.
Dalai Lama
Every man has the basis of good. Not only human beings, you can find it among animals and insects, for instance, when we treat a dog or horse lovingly.
Dalai Lama
World peace begins with inner peace.
Dalai Lama
My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.

Just as we take for granted the need to acquire proficiency in the basic academic subjects, I am hopeful that a time will come when we can take it for granted that children will learn, as part of the curriculum, the indispensability of inner values: love, compassion, justice, and forgiveness.
Dalai Lama
The fact that there is always a positive side to life is the one thing that gives me a lot of happiness.
Dalai Lama
Without technology humanity has no future, but we have to be careful that we don’t become so mechanised that we lose our human feelings.

Peace can only last where human rights are respected, where the people are fed, and where individuals and nations are free. True peace with oneself and with the world around us can only be achieved through the development of mental peace.
Dalai Lama
The purpose of life is to be happy.
Dalai Lama
China can keep her troops on the external frontiers of Tibet, and Tibetans will pledge to accept the appropriate form of union with China.
Dalai Lama
The 20th century was the century of war and blood. The 21st century is the century of dialogue.
Dalai Lama
To me there is no difference whether president, beggar, or king.
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
Treat each person as you would an old friend.
Dalai Lama
I have found that the greatest degree of inner tranquility comes from the development of love and compassion. The more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. Cultivating a close, warmhearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It is the ultimate source of success in life.
