Non-violence means dialogue, using our language, the human language. Dialogue means compromise; respecting each otherโs rights; in the spirit of reconciliation there is a real solution to conflict and disagreement. There is no hundred percent winner, no hundred percent loserโnot that way but half-and-half. That is the practical way, the only way.
Dalai LamaSo long as we are under the control of disturbing emotions, real happiness is hard to find.
Dalai LamaWe need to learn how to want what we have NOT to have what we want in order to get steady and stable Happiness
Dalai LamaIt is a wonderful thing if one can use one's place of work as a place of spiritual practice as well.
Dalai LamaLearning is the first step in making positive changes within yourself. Other factors are conviction, determination, action & effort. Learning & education help develop conviction about the need to change & increase your commitment. Conviction then develops into determination. Next, strong determination leads to action: a sustained effort to implement the changes. This final factor of effort is critical.
