Quote

The question of world peace, the question of family peace, the question of peace between wife and husband, or peace between parents and children, everything is dependent on that feeling of love and warmheartedness.

Image
Certain beliefs must accompany every action: One should act without selfishness, cultivate compassion for all living things, and develop respect for others.
Dalai Lama
Image
A sense of concern for others gives our lives meaning it is the root of all human happiness
Dalai Lama
Image
Our visit to this planet is short, so we should use our time meaningfully, which we can do by helping others wherever possible. And if we cannot help others, at least we should try not to create pain and suffering for them.
Dalai Lama
Image
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. What makes us the same is that we all want to lead happy lives and gather friends around us. And friendship is based on trust, honesty and openness.
Dalai Lama
Image
I believe compassion to be one of the few things we can practice that will bring immediate and long-term happiness to our lives. I'm not talking about the short-term gratification of pleasures like sex, drugs or gambling (though I'm not knocking them), but something that will bring true and lasting happiness. The kind that sticks.
Dalai Lama

Many people think that patience is a sign of weakness. I think this is a mistake. It is anger that is a sign of weakness, whereas patience is a sign of strength

Not only is your own happiness and welfare related to others, but the more you help them, the happier you will be.
Dalai Lama

We can't blame the entire Muslim society because of the mischievous acts of a few individuals. Therefore, at the general public level we must cultivate the notion of not just one religion, one truth, but pluralism and many truths. We can change the atmosphere, and we can modify certain ways of thinking.
Dalai Lama

Without technology humanity has no future, but we have to be careful that we don’t become so mechanised that we lose our human feelings.
Dalai Lama
Image
The world will be saved by the western woman.
Dalai Lama
Image
On those days when I can spend a few hours getting some understanding, I feel fulfilled. I feel as if I have made good use of my time.
Dalai Lama
Image
We are all, by nature, clearly oriented toward the basic human values of love and compassion. We all prefer the love of others to their hatred. We all prefer others’ generosity to meanness. And who is there among us who does not prefer tolerance, respect and forgiveness of our failings to bigotry, disrespect, and resentment?
Dalai Lama

The only way to fail is to quit.
Dalai Lama
Image
It seems that for some people the idea of compassion entails a complete disregard for or even a sacrifice of their own interests. This is not the case. In fact, you first of all have to have a wish to be happy yourself - if you don't love yourself like that, how can you love others?
Dalai Lama
Image
In Buddhism, ignorance as the root cause of suffering refers to a fundamental misperception of the true nature of the self and all phenomena.
Dalai Lama
Image
Anger, jealousy, impatience, and hatred are the real troublemakers, with them problems cannot be solved.
Dalai Lama
Image
When selflessness is seen in objects, the seed of cyclic existence is destroyed.
Dalai Lama
Image
Spirituality actually must be above politics. Or some other sort of business.
Dalai Lama
Image
We need to teach people that the environment has a direct bearing on our own benefit.
