We have a responsibility to look after our planet. It is our only home.
Dalai Lama
Image
Every religion emphasizes human improvement, love, respect for others, sharing other people's suffering. On these lines every religion had more or less the same viewpoint and the same goal.
Dalai Lama
Image
For Tibetans, the real strength of our struggle is truth - not size, money, or expertise. China is much bigger, richer, more powerful militarily, and has much better skill in diplomacy. They outdo us in every field. But they have no justice. We have placed our whole faith in truth and in justice. We have nothing else, in principle and in practice.
Dalai Lama
Image
True friends share genuine closeness and remain friends irrespective of fluctuating fortunes.
Dalai Lama
Image
The goal is not to be better than the other man, but your previous self.
Dalai Lama
Image
Genuine harmony must come from the heart. It cannot come from the barrel of a gun.
Dalai Lama
Image
The very purpose of our life is happiness, which is sustained by hope. We have no guarantee about the future, but we exist in the hope of something better. Hope means keeping going, thinking, ‘I can do this.’ It brings inner strength, self-confidence , the ability to do what you do honestly, truthfully and transparently.
Dalai Lama

If you have fear of some pain or suffering, you should examine whether there is anything you can do about it. If you can, there is no need to worry about it if you cannot do anything, then there is also no need to worry.
Dalai Lama
Image
We live within the environment. So that directly relates with our survival, our life. So through that way, more concern of well being of humanity, then naturally concerned about environment.
Dalai Lama
Image
Consider that not only do negative thoughts and emotions destroy our experience of peace, they also undermine our health.
Dalai Lama
Image
Although individuals may be highly intelligent, they are sometimes dogged by skepticism and doubts. They are clever, but they tend to be hesitant and skeptical and are never really able to settle down. These people are the least receptive.
Dalai Lama
Image
If your heart has peace, nothing can disturb you.
Dalai Lama
Image
There are differences between us. But it doesn't make sense to emphasize that, because my future and yours is connected with everyone else's. So we have to take seriously our concern for all of humanity. When we focus on our individuality, humanity inevitably suffers. And once humanity suffers, each one of us will also suffer.
Dalai Lama
Image
I think when religions such as Hinduism and Buddhism - as well as Christianity and Judaism - were founded, at that time societies were generally male-dominated. So, therefore this social notion also influenced religion.
Dalai Lama
Image
May I examine my mind in all actions and as soon as a negative state occurs, since it endangers myself and others, may I firmly face and avert it.
Dalai Lama
Image
World peace must develop from inner peace.
Dalai Lama
Image
I call the light and high aspects of my being spirit and the dark and heavy aspects soul.
Dalai Lama
Image
Unlike an external enemy, the inner enemy cannot regroup and launch a comeback once it has been destroyed from within.
Dalai Lama
Image
I one individual human being. One of the seven billion human being. I believe each of us, our future depends on the rest of humanity.
Dalai Lama
Image
Even without a religion, we can become a good human being.
