Instead of wondering WHY this is happening to you, consider why this is happening to YOU.
Dalai LamaI believe all suffering is caused by ignorance. People inflict pain on others in the selfish pursuit of their happiness or satisfaction. Yet true happiness comes from a sense of inner peace and contentment, which in turn must be achieved through the cultivation of altruism, of love and compassion and elimination of ignorance, selfishness and greed.
Dalai LamaBasically, therefore, we should approach others openly, recognizing each person as another human being just like ourselves. There is not much difference between us all.
Dalai LamaI appreciate any organization or individual people who sincerely make an effort to promote harmony between humanity, and particularly harmony between the various religions. I consider it very sacred work and very important work
