Dalai Lama XIV

If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.

The creatures that inhabit this earth--be they human beings or animals--are here to contribute, each in its own particular way, to the beauty and prosperity of the world.

Peace does not mean an absence of conflicts; differences will always be there. Peace means solving these differences through peaceful means; through dialogue, education, knowledge; and through humane ways.

Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.

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

If a problem is fixable, if a situation is such that you can do something about it, then there is no need to worry. If it's not fixable, then there is no help in worrying. There is no benefit in worrying whatsoever.

Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other.

A disciplined mind leads to happiness, and an undisciplined mind leads to suffering.

Only the development of compassion and understanding for others can bring us the tranquility and happiness we all seek.

There is a saying in Tibetan, 'Tragedy should be utilized as a source of strength.'No matter what sort of difficulties, how painful experience is, if we lose our hope, that's our real disaster.

The more you are motivated by Love, The more Fearless & Free your action will be.

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.

We can live without religion and meditation, but we cannot survive without human affection.

Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them, humanity cannot survive.

Share your knowledge. It is a way to achieve immortality.

This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.
