Sectarian feelings and criticism of other teachings or other sects is very bad, poisonous, and should be avoided.
Dalai Lama
Our love could change the orbit of the earth. So, if a meteor ever comes hurtling towards earth with the guarantee of destruction, top scientists may call on us to, well, you know, do it like crazy for the sake of humankind.
Dalai Lama
I think governments can't do much.
Dalai Lama
Not to identify oneself with something, or to associate things with the 'me,' and to see that the idea that there is a 'me,' which is distinct from things, is a delusion.
Dalai Lama
Friends, genuine friends, have much more to do with whether we have a warm heart, not money or power.

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
Different people describe me in a different ways. Some describe me as the living Buddha. Nonsense. Some describe me as 'God-king.' Nonsense. Some consider me as a demon or a wolf in Buddhist robes. That also, I think nonsense.
Dalai Lama
It is difficult to violently suppress people in the long run, as the example of the Soviet Union and the Eastern European countries has shown.
Dalai Lama
Differences in religious beliefs, politics, social status, and position are all secondary. When we look at someone with compassion, we are able to see beyond these secondary differences and connect to the primary essence that binds all humans together as one.
Dalai Lama
I consider others as just brothers and sisters. Nothing barrier.
Dalai Lama
pain is inevitable,suffering is optional... we have bigger houses,but smaller families. More conveniences,but less time. We have knowledge,but less judgements more experts,but more problems more medicines but less health.
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
The purpose of life is to increase the warm heart.
Dalai Lama
The jealousy that arises from another's achievement is overcome by developing an awareness of and admiration for one's own and other's achievement.
Dalai Lama
As human beings we all want to be happy and free from misery. We have learned that the key to happiness is inner peace. The greatest obstacles to inner peace are disturbing emotions such as anger and attachment, fear and suspicion, while love and compassion, a sense of universal responsibility are the sources of peace and happiness.
