If we find we cannot help others, the least we can do is to desist from harming them. It is necessary to help others, not only in our prayers, but in our daily lives. If you can, help others if you cannot do that, at least do not harm them. Without taming the mind there is no way to be happy. Happiness mainly comes from our own attitude, rather than from external factors. The more you nurture a feeling of loving kindness, the happier and calmer you will be. The ultimate source of happiness is our mental attitude. We must all live harmoniously with our neighbors.
What unites all beings is their desire for happiness. Whether we are rich or poor, educated or uneducated, whatever our nationality, color, social status, or ideology may be, the purpose of our lives is to be happy. From this, happiness in both the short term and the long term for both yourself and others will come. It is very important to generate a good attitude, a good heart, as much as possible. If you want to be happy, practice compassion. If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. That the happiness of one person or nation is the happiness of humanity. We must recognize that the suffering of one person or one nation is the suffering of humanity. ~ Dalai Lama Buy this Dalai Lama Quote Mug You have to start giving first and expect absolutely nothing. ~ Dalai Lama Return to Index of Dalai Lama Quotes ~ Dalai Lamaĭon’t let a little dispute injure a friendship. ~ Dalai LamaĪ good friend who points out mistakes and imperfections and rebukes evil is to be respected as if he reveals the secret of some hidden treasure.
