The essence of any religion is good heart. Sometimes I call love and compassion a universal religion. This is my religion.
Dalai LamaWe have a largely materialistic lifestyle characterized by a materialistic culture. However, this only provides us with temporary, sensory satisfaction, whereas long-term satisfaction is based not on the senses but on the mind. Thatโs where real tranquility is to be found. And peace of mind turns out to be a significant factor in our physical health too.
Dalai LamaThrough meditative techniques, one can free the mind of delusions and attain what we call enlightenment.
Dalai LamaA wider of more altruistic attitude is very relevant in today's world. If we look at the situation from various angles, such as the complexity and inter-connectedness of the nature of modern existence, then we will gradually notice a change in our outlook, so that when we say 'others' and when we think of others, we will no longer dismiss them as something that is irrelevant to us. We will no longer feel indifferent.
