I believe that to meet the challenge of our times, human beings will have to develop a greater sense of universal responsibility. We must all learn to work not just for our own self, family, or nation but for the benefit of all humankind. Universal responsibility is the key to human survival. It is the best foundation for world peace, the equitable use of natural resources, and through concern for future generations, the proper care of the environment.
Dalai LamaIf you become more concerned for the welfare of others, you will experience a sense of calm, inner-strength, and self confidence.
Dalai LamaThe practice of patience guards us against losing our presence of mind. It enables us to remain undisturbed, even when the situation is really difficult. It gives us a certain amount of inner peace, which allows us some self-control, so that we can choose to respond to situations in an appropriate and compassionate manner, rather than being driven by our disturbing emotions.
Dalai LamaOur ancient experience confirms at every point that everything is linked together, everything is inseparable.
Dalai LamaOnce you have a genuine sense of concern for others, thereโs no room for cheating, bullying or exploitation.
Dalai Lama
