As long as I am alive, I am fully committed to amity between Tibetans and Chinese. Otherwise there's no use.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

I always tell people that rel...

I always tell people that religious institutions and political institutions should be separate. So while I'm telling people this, I myself continue with them combined. Hypocrisy!

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

My main concern is meeting with public because my main commitment, main interest is promotion of human value, human affection, compassion and religious harmony.

Some scientists believe climate change is the cause of unprecedented melting of the North Pole, and that effects these very uncertain weather patterns. I think we should listen to those scientists and experts.

I think the self-burning itself on practice of non-violence. These people, you see, they easily use bomb explosive, more casualty people. But they didn't do that. Only sacrifice their own life. So this also is part of practice of non-violence.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

It is difficult to violently suppress people in the long run, as the example of the Soviet Union and the Eastern European countries has shown.

The Dalai Lama is just a temporal leader of Tibet.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

I am sometimes sad when I hear the personal stories of Tibetan refugees who have been tortured or beaten. Some irritation, some anger comes. But it never lasts long. I always try to think at a deeper level, to find ways to console.

Wherever I go meeting the public... spreading a message of human values, spreading a message of harmony, is the most important thing.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

If some people have the belief or view that the Dalai Lama has some miracle power, that's totally nonsense. I am just one human being.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

Never give up. No matter what...

Never give up. No matter what is happening, no matter what is going on around you, never give up.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

Moving towards better rather ...

Moving towards better rather than moving away from bad is an attitude of embracing life rather than rejecting it.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

Anger cannot be overcome by anger. If someone is angry with you, and you show anger in return, the result is a disaster. On the other hand, if you control your anger and show its opposite - love, compassion, tolerance and patience - not only will you remain peaceful, but the other person's anger will also diminish.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

Just one small positive thought in the morning can change your whole day.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

We can reject everything else...

We can reject everything else: religion, ideology, all received wisdom. But we cannot escape the necessity of love and compassion. This, then, is my true religion, my simple faith. In this sense, there is no need for temple or church, for mosque or synagogue, no need for complicated philosophy, doctrine, or dogma. Our own heart, our own mind, is the temple. The doctrine is compassion. Love for others and respect for their rights and dignity, no matter who or what they are: ultimately these are all we need.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

Whether one is rich or poor, ...

Whether one is rich or poor, educated or illiterate, religious or nonbelieving, man or woman, black, white, or brown, we are all the same. Physically, emotionally, and mentally, we are all equal. We all share basic needs for food, shelter, safety, and love. We all aspire to happiness and we all shun suffering. Each of us has hopes, worries, fears, and dreams. Each of us wants the best for our family and loved ones. We all experience pain when we suffer loss and joy when we achieve what we seek. On this fundamental level, religion, ethnicity, culture, and language make no difference.

As you breathe in, cherish yourself. As you breathe out, cherish all Beings.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

Love is the absence of judgment.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

Every day, think as you wake ...

Every day, think as you wake up, today I am fortunate to be alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others; to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings. I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

I have found that the greates...

I have found that the greatest degree of inner tranquility comes from the development of love and compassion. The more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. Cultivating a close, warmhearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It is the ultimate source of success in life.
