I am colourless, odourless and quite inert. Some people say I’m monatomic. I’m a low density tweeter…

@RufusHound Ask those women where they met those men that misbehaved. Bet they were under the influence. If you go fishing in a shark pool then you should expect to catch sharks. Take some responsibility for putting yourself in the position FFS.

For most of us, our mother is our first teacher. In my own case, it was my mother who first revealed to me the power of compassion. Since they are especially skilled in nurturing compassion and human values, we need women to take the lead in creating a more compassionate society.

As we teach children to observe physical hygiene for its health benefits, we need to teach them to cultivate emotional hygiene — to tackle destructive emotions and find peace of mind.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Friendship depends on trust and trust depends on having a strong sense of concern for the welfare of others. Be honest, truthful and warm-hearted. Make compassion the basis of your determination. Think of what the future can be, not what happened in the past.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

If you focus narrowly on the problem as you see it, you might well lose hope, but if you look at it from a wider perspective, it's easier to be more positive. When I decided to leave Tibet, we set out not knowing if we would live to see the following day, but I never gave up hope

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Compassion is the basis of our survival, not just a religious matter. Our very life depends on the affection of others, so it's in our interest to take their concerns into account. We must think more about inner values and cultivate compassion in our own lives.

@jimalkhalili He does look perplexed.

II offer my condolences to those who have lost loved ones as a result of the recent glacial burst in the Chamoli district of Uttarakhand, India, and pray for them. I also pray for the safety and well being of those who are still missing. https://t.co/LEhK06IYLN

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

We must try to incorporate understanding of the workings of our emotions and the ways to tackle them into our education system. If we are kind and compassionate, we’ll be honest. That leads to trust, stability and friendship.

A doctor will testify that drugs in your system can affect behaviour.

I feel I am just another human being, a part of the world in which I live. Therefore, I’m never lonely. I think of whoever I meet as being the same as me. We don’t need to be introduced. If they have two eyes, one nose and a mouth, I think of other people as being human like me.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Warm-heartedness and compassion are conducive to our physical and mental well-being — anger, hatred and fear are not. This is why some scientists today talk about warm-heartedness ensuring a 'healthy mind and a healthy body'.

Conservatives just tweeted

“Keir Starmer wants to scrap universal credit, withdrawing vital support from millions of people”

They include an edited version of a @Keir_Starmer interview

It’s already been watched 25,000 times. Let’s send this full version to a million👇

Peace is not brought about through conflict, but through compassion — creating peace of mind within ourselves. We all need compassion and women can take a lead role in bringing this about. My own first teacher of kindness and compassion was my mother.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

I regard a compassionate, warm, kindhearted person as healthy. If you maintain a feeling of compassion, loving kindness, something automatically opens your inner door, through which you can communicate much more easily with other people — you'll find that they are just like you.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Wherever I go, I try to cultivate a sense of the oneness of humanity. I see everyone I meet as being essentially the same. And people respond positively to this. Animals too. Fear leads to isolation, so it's helpful to be open to others.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

We must find secular ways to cultivate warm-heartedness — to educate ourselves about inner values. The source of a happy life is within us. Troublemakers in many parts of the world are often well educated, so it’s not just education we need. We must pay attention to inner values.
