We are beset by problems and if we look for their source, we find they arise because of our selfishness, because we tend to pursue our own interests at the expense of others. Our various religious traditions exist to help us reduce these problems. They all teach ways to overcome suffering through cultivating love and compassion, tolerance, patience and contentment.
Dalai LamaA lot of problems we are facing, essentially, man made problem. Own creation. Not due to lack of intelligence.
Dalai LamaThose who have little interest in spirituality shouldnโt think that human inner values donโt apply to you. The inner peace of an alert and calm mind are the source of real happiness and good health. Our human intelligence tells us which of our emotions are positive and helpful and which are damaging and to be restrained or avoided.
Dalai LamaFollow the three R's: - Respect for self. - Respect for others. - Responsibility for all your actions.
