I think the problem is these basic sort of human values from our - from the beginning, from birth, are not sort of properly nurtured. So then our mind, our brain, through education and also difference of experiences, that eventually, these basic values or what are called dominant, not have the catching up our intelligence, experience growth, that also should grow. Then our life become more human.

Dalai LamaIf we are demoralized, sad and only complain, weโll not solve our problems. If we only pray for a solution, weโll not solve our problems. We need to face them, to deal with them without violence, but with confidence - and never give up. If you adopt a non-violent approach, but are also hesitant within, youโll not succeed. You have to have confidence and keep up your efforts - in other words, never give up.
