Smile

“Wherever I go I consider whoever I meet to be another human being like me. We all want to live a happy life. We all respond to smiles, so wherever I go, I smile. Even when we don’t share a language, we can communicate our friendship by smiling.”

His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama

Learn to live together!

“There are no natural boundaries between
human beings on this earth, we are one family.
At a time of increasing natural disasters,
climate change and global warming affect all
of us. We must learn to live together, to work
together, and to share what we have together.”

His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama

Calm mind

“Compassion enhances our self-confidence because a calm mind allows our marvellous human intelligence to bloom. When we’re angry, our thinking is distorted and we don’t see the different aspects of reality. A calm mind enables us to take a broader, more realistic view.”

His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama

Oneness of humanity

“I believe that if we make an effort to develop
peace of mind within ourselves and cultivate
a proper appreciation of the oneness of
humanity, we can create a happier, more
peaceful world. What we need is common
sense-the positive use of intelligence-and
warm-heartedness.”

His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama
