More quotes by 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
People should not rush to change religions. There is real value in finding the spiritual resources you need in your home religion. Even secular humanism has great spiritual resources it is almost like a religion to me.
Dalai Lama
Try to improve. Don't expect too much, but don't feel discouraged either keep up your enthusiasm you will make progress.

Looking at the pattern of our existence from birth to death, we can see the way in which we are fundamentally nurtured by other's affection.
Dalai Lama
It is important to reflect on the kindness of others. Every aspect of our present well-being is due to others' hard work. The buildings we live and work in, the roads we travel, the clothes we wear, and the food we eat, are all provided by others. None of them would exist but for the kindness of so many people unknown to us.
Dalai Lama
Affection is important because it counters anger, hatred and suspicion that can prevent our minds from functioning clearly.

I request you to try to be warm-hearted. I ask this of you because these mental attitudes actually bring us happiness.
Dalai Lama
Nonviolence is the only way. Even if you achieve your goal by violent means there are always side effects, and these can be worse than the problem. Violence is against human nature.
Dalai Lama
Because of the great differences in our ways of thinking, it is inevitable that we have different religions and faiths. Each has its own beauty. And it is much better that we live together on the basis of mutual respect and mutual admiration.
Dalai Lama
If our tears do not lead us to act then we have lost the reason of our humanity, which is compassion.
Dalai Lama
Go at least once a year to a place you've never been before.
Dalai Lama
When you are warm-hearted, there is no room for anger, jealousy or insecurity.
Dalai Lama
Love and compassion ... are the ultimate source of human happiness, and the need for them lies at the very core of our being.
Dalai Lama
If your life becomes only a medium of production, then many of the good human values and characteristics will be lost.
Dalai Lama
It is important to understand that counterproducti ve actions of body, speech and mind do not arise of their own accord, but spring up in dependence on our motivation. Faulty states of mind give rise to faulty actions. To control negative physical and verbal actions, we need to tame our minds.
