I consider myself to be just one among 7 billion human beings. If I were to think of myself as different from others, or as something special, it would create a barrier between us.

Similarly, the Buddhist is willing to sacrifice immediate comfort so that he or she can achieve lasting happiness.
Dalai Lama
Whether we like it or not, we have all been born into this world as part of one great human family.

We all desire happiness and do not want suffering.
Dalai Lama

Dalai Lama

I hold the view that death is rather like changing one's clothes when they are torn and old. It is not an end in itself. Yet death is unpredictable-you do not know when and howT it will take place.
Dalai Lama
So our future is in our own hands. What greater free will do we need?
