Since we became Buddhist, we have lived in peace with them. We did not invade them. We did not want them to invade us. We have never declared war on China.
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

There is often a big disparity between the way in which we perceive things and the way things really are.
Dalai Lama
I believe that the time has come for women to take more active roles in all domains of human society, in an age in which education and the capacities of the mind, not physical strength, define leadership. This could help create a more equitable and compassionate society.
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
It helps remove whatever fears or insecurities we may have and gives us the strength to cope with any obstacles we encounter. It is the principal source of success in life. Since we are not solely material creatures, it is a mistake to place all our hopes for happiness on external development alone. The key is to develop inner peace.
Dalai Lama
Refraining from harm, not out of fear, but out of concern for others, their well-being and out of respect is non-violence.
Dalai Lama
Education is the way to achieve far-reaching results, it is the proper way to promote compassion and tolerance in society.
Dalai Lama
Our world and our lives have become increasingly interdependent, so when our neighbour is harmed, it affects us too. Therefore we have to abandon outdated notions of 'them' and 'us' and think of our world much more in terms of a great 'US', a greater human family.
Dalai Lama
How can we eliminate the deepest source of all unsatisfactory experience? Only by cultivating certain qualities within our mindstream.
