We humans can destroy the earth, but we can also protect it. We must educate ourselves to understand how our life-style today has to change. We need to use natural resources differently. On World Environment Day we have to think seriously about the situation we find ourselves in.

@closethedoor@FritesEnMayoBE I’d like to nominate the trusty Honda Fit. Quarter of a million miles, surprisingly capable team car, was available in manual transmission, and the amount of stuff you could fit in that thing was 🤯🤯🤯. Sadly, it’s been killed off like most of the wagons…
His Holiness’ Message for the New Year - 2024
On the occasion of the New Year, I would like to thank everyone who has sent me good wishes, and I offer my greetings to you all, brothers and sisters across the world.
Despite the many challenges that we are facing today, I feel optimistic that with a growing appreciation of how interconnected we all are in the oneness of humanity, we can all work to lead more meaningful lives and create a better world.
As human beings we share a common wish to be happy and free from pain. We are social animals who depend on others to survive. Therefore, as I often say, we should work for the benefit of others. If we cannot help them, we should at least make sure we do no harm. I have found that helping others is the best way of ensuring happiness and calm for ourselves.
I also firmly believe that we can find peace in the world only when we find peace within. Every human being has the potential to cultivate inner peace, and by so doing to contribute to the peace of our global community.
We must try to cultivate compassion and inner peace, regardless of our nationality or religion, we can contribute to the well-being and happiness of all mankind. If the last century was the century of violence, it is our responsibility to make this century the century of dialogue.
Once again, I extend warm greetings to you all. I hope that you all enjoy an auspicious beginning to the new year, 2024.
With prayers and good wishes,
Dalai Lama
