Whether you believe in God or...

Whether you believe in God or not does not matter so much, whether you believe in Buddha or not does not matter so much; as a Buddhist, whether you believe in reincarnation or not does not matter so much. You must lead a good life. And a good life does not mean just good food, good clothes, good shelter. These are not sufficient. A good motivation is what is needed: compassion, without dogmatism, without complicated philosophy; just understanding that others are human brothers and sisters and respecting their rights and human dignity.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

Foolish, selfish people are a...

Foolish, selfish people are always thinking of themselves and the result is always negative. Wise persons think of others, helping them as much as they can, and the result is happiness. Love and compassion are beneficial both for you and others. Through your kindness to others, your mind and heart will open to peace.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

We are all here on this plane...

We are all here on this planet, as it were, as tourists. None of us can live here forever. The longest we might live is a hundred years. So while we are here we should try to have a good heart and to make something positive and useful of our lives. Whether we live just a few years or a whole century, it would be truly regrettable and sad if we were to spend that time aggravating the problems that afflict other people, animals, and the environment. The most important things is to be a good human being.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

If you have peace of mind, wh...

If you have peace of mind, when you meet with problems and difficulties they won’t disturb your inner peace. You’ll be able to employ your human intelligence more effectively. But, if your mental state is disturbed, full of emotion, it is very difficult to cope with problems, because the mind that is full of emotion is biased, unable to see reality. So whatever you do will be unrealistic and naturally fail.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

When you talk you are only re...

When you talk you are only repeating something you already know. But, if you listen you may learn something new.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

Give the ones you love wings ...

Give the ones you love wings to fly, roots to come back and reasons to stay.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

The planet does not need more...

The planet does not need more successful people. The planet desperately needs more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers, and lovers of all kinds.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

When you think everything is ...

When you think everything is someone else's fault, you will suffer a lot. When you realize that everything springs only from yourself, you will learn both peace and joy.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

If you don't love yourself, y...

If you don't love yourself, you cannot love others. You will not be able to love others. If you have no compassion for yourself then you are not able of developing compassion for others.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

Anger, hatred and jealousy ne...

Anger, hatred and jealousy never solve problems, only affection, concern and respect can do that.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

Generally speaking, if a human...

Generally speaking, if a human being never shows anger, then I think something's wrong. He's not right in the brain.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

The best way to resolve any problem in the human world is for all sides to sit down and talk.

The Chinese government wants me to say that for many centuries Tibet has been part of China. Even if I make that statement, many people would just laugh. And my statement will not change past history. History is history.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

Chinese people themselves, they really want change.

Computers make me totally blank out.

I have always had this view about the modern education system: we pay attention to brain development, but the development of warmheartedness we take for granted.

My faith helps me overcome such negative emotions and find my equilibrium.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

Even when a person has all of life's comforts - good food, good shelter, a companion - he or she can still become unhappy when encountering a tragic situation.

Dalai Lama 1416 quotes

China has to go along with world trends. That's democracy, liberty, individual freedom. China sooner or later has to go that way. It cannot go backward.
