A sense of universal responsibility has the power to negate adverse traits such as selfishness, deceiving others, abuse, and so on. There will be no need to be afraid. Life becomes meaningful, and households, communities, and nations, large and small, become happier.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

In order to develop our mind, we must look at a deeper level. Everyone seeks happiness, joyfulness, but from outside—from money, from power, from big car, from big house. Most people never pay much attention to the ultimate source of a happy life, which is inside, not outside.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Everyone wants to live in a peaceful world, but it’s necessary to understand that what destroys peace is anger and hatred. This is why the long term goal is to create inner peace within individuals, so contributing to a more compassionate humanity.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

As soon as I wake up, I think about altruism. I reflect on the verse that says, "So long as space remains, I will remain in order to serve sentient beings." This gives me inner strength and determination, so there’s no longer any danger of destructive emotions arising.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Education today needs to include principles such as compassion and non-violence. What’s more, since we are missing something if we are physically fit, but full of anger and anxiety, we need to learn about emotional hygiene, tackling destructive emotions to find peace of mind.

Once upon a time, people were denied the right to vote because of the color of their skin and gender.

Today, children are being denied access to a quality education because of their zip code and family income.

@DalaiLama Buddha ~ Dhammapada
Like beautiful flowers ~
that have colour but no scent
are the eloquent but empty
sayings of one who does not
act according to their words.
Like beautiful flowers ~
full of colour and fragrance
are the fruitful sayings of one
who acts according to their words.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Peace of mind and physical well-being are closely related. Some years ago, a scientist at Emory University told me that continuous anger, fear and suspicion tend to eat into our immune system. Besides, peace of mind and warm-heartedness bring us confidence.
