The more we think of others, the happier we are. The more we think of ourselves, the more suffering we feel.
Dalai LamaNot only is your own happiness and welfare related to others, but the more you help them, the happier you will be.
Dalai LamaA mind committed to compassion is like an overflowing reservoir - a constant source of energy, determination, and kindness.
Dalai LamaGood human qualities-honesty, sincerity, a good heart-cannot be bought with money, nor can they be produced my machines, but only by the mind itself. We can call this the inner light, or God's blessing, or human qualitity. This is the essence of mankind.
Dalai LamaThere are many different kinds of power. True power comes from serving and helping others. Such behavior makes people respect you. They are willing to listen to your views and advice, and they support you. The energy of many people is thus channeled through one person. This kind of power is positive and authentic.
