Through training there is knowledge. You can produce compassion, love, forgiveness. you can change yourself.
Dalai LamaFeelings of anger, bitterness, and hate are negative. If I kept those inside me, they would spoil my body and my health. The are of no use.
Dalai LamaIf we adopt a self-centered approach to life, by which we attempt to use others for our own self interest, we might be able to gain temporary benefits, but in the long run we will not succeed in achieving even our personal happiness, and hope for the next life is out of the question.
Dalai LamaTo defy the authority of empirical evidence is to disqualify oneself as someone worthy of critical engagement in a dialogue.
