Unlike an external enemy, the inner enemy cannot regroup and launch a comeback once it has been destroyed from within.
Dalai LamaYou can develop the right attitude toward others if you have kindness, love and respect for them, and a clear realization of the oneness of all human beings.
Dalai LamaEach of us must learn to work not just for one self, one's own family or one's nation, but for the benefit of all humankind. Universal responsibility is the key to human survival. It is the best foundation for world peace.
Dalai LamaPatience as we wait to take action is a kind of compassionate mind. Impatience on the other hand can be a source of failure.
Dalai LamaHatred, jealousy and excessive attachment cause suffering and agitation. I feel compassion can help us overcome these disturbances and let us return to a calm state of mind. Compassion is not just being kind to your friend. That involves attachment because it is based on expectation. Compassion is when you do something good without any expectations - based on realizing that "the other person is also just like me".
