When we are motivated by compassion and wisdom, the results of our actions benefit everyone, not just our individual selves.
Dalai LamaWhen we speak of a calm state of mind or peace of mind, we shouldn't confuse that with an insensitive state of apathy. Having a calm or peaceful state of mind doesn't mean being spaced out or completely empty. Peace of mind or a calm state of mind is rooted in affection and compassion and is sensitive and responsive to others.
Dalai LamaI always believed in love, compassion and a sense of universal respect. Every human being has that potential.
Dalai Lama
