The real enemy of happiness is the mind's fixations and delusions... If you have the right mind, you can overcome anything - you can be happy, no matter what.
Dalai Lama
Image
The key to human happiness lies within our own state of mind, and so too do the primary obstacles to that happiness.
Dalai Lama
Image
If there is a solution to a problem, there is no need to worry. And if there is no solution, there is no need to worry.
Dalai Lama
Image
When you talk you are only repeating something you already know. But, if you listen you may learn something new.
Dalai Lama
Image
Have no discrepancy between what you say, what you are and what you do.
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

Some people get the impression that Buddhism talks too much about suffering. In order to become prosperous, a person must initially work very hard, so he or she has to sacrifice a lot of leisure time. Similarly, the Buddhist is willing to sacrifice immediate comfort so that he or she can achieve lasting happiness.

Compassion is the wish to see others free from suffering.
Dalai Lama
Image
Wealth is not necessarily a bad thing when it has been earned in an honest manner and neither other individuals nor the environment suffered for it.
Dalai Lama
Image
We are working as hard as we can we are preparing ourselves as carefully as we can we fully intend to make our contribution to the world in the coming century.
Dalai Lama
Image
The source of peace is within us so also the source of war. And the real enemy is within us, and not outside. The source of war is not the existence of nuclear weapons or other arms. It is the minds of human beings who decide to push the button and to use those arms out of hatred, anger or greed.
Dalai Lama
Image
If one's life is simple, contentment has to come. Simplicity is extremely important for happiness. Having few desires, feeling satisfied with what you have, is very vital: satisfaction with just enough food, clothing, and shelter to protect yourself from the elements.
Dalai Lama
Image
True enlightenment is nothing but the nature of one's own self being fully realized.
Dalai Lama
Image
Meditation may also be thought of as a technique by which we diminish the force of old thought habits and develop new ones.
Dalai Lama
Image
The nature of our motivation determines the character of our work.
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
A mind wishing to benefit other people and other sentient beings is the very basis of peace and happiness.
