More quotes by Dalai Lama
It is the enemy who can truly teach us to practice the virtues of compassion and tolerance.
Dalai Lama
Despite all philosophical differences, all major world religions have the same potential to create good human beings.
Dalai Lama
My earnest request is that you practice love and kindness whether you believe in a religion or not
Dalai Lama
Firstly, as a Buddhist monk, I hold that violence is not good. Secondly, I am a firm believer in the Gandian ethic of passive resistance. And thirdly, in reality, violence is not our strength.
Dalai Lama
Because the existing education system is oriented towards materialistic goals we need to pay special attention to inner values such as tolerance, forgiveness, love and compassion.
Dalai Lama
Peace can only last where human rights are respected, where the people are fed, and where individuals and nations are free. True peace with oneself and with the world around us can only be achieved through the development of mental peace.
Dalai Lama
It is not enough to belong to a religion. You also have to put it into practice. Religion is like medicine. You have to ingest it to combat the illness.
Dalai Lama
There must be a way of promoting human values without involving religion, based on common sense, experience and recent scientific findings.
Dalai Lama
A loving atmosphere in your home is the foundation for your life.
Dalai Lama
Some consider me as a living Buddha. That's nonsense. That's silly. That's wrong. If they consider me a simple Buddhist monk, however, that's probably okay.
Dalai Lama
In order to be happy we must first possess inner contentment and inner contentment doesn't come from having all we want but rather from wanting and appreciating being grateful for all we have.
Dalai Lama
I try to treat whoever I meet as an old friend [with dignity, with honor].
Dalai Lama
Furthermore, I shall explain the nature of dharmata: Such a nature as this cannot be determined to be any one thing. So however you label it, that is how it appears.
Dalai Lama
A zero itself is nothing, but without a zero you cannot count anything therefore, a zero is something, yet zero.
Dalai Lama
I always believed in love, compassion and a sense of universal respect. Every human being has that potential.
Dalai Lama
Each one of us is responsible for the whole of humankind. We need to think of each other really as brothers and sisters and to be concerned for each other’s welfare. Rather than working solely to acquire wealth, we need to do something meaningful, something directed seriously towards the welfare of humanity as a whole.
Dalai Lama
I have no trouble sleeping.
Dalai Lama
The ultimate way to solve human problems is with nonviolence.
Dalai Lama
In some places, there's the concept of one religion, one truth. In the Muslim world, there's the notion of Allah. The Western, multireligious modern society is some kind of a challenge to this. These, I feel, are the main causes [for terrorism], and, when combined with lots of anger and frustration, cause a huge amount of hate.
Dalai Lama
When a certain community is destroyed, in reality it destroys a part of all of us. So there should be a clear recognition that the entire humanity is just one family. Any conflict within humanity should be considered as a family conflict. We must find a solution within this atmosphere.
Dalai Lama
