“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.”

Inter-religious Harmony
“Inter-religious harmony is essential, because each of our religious traditions gives its followers a sense of how to lead a meaningful life. The important thing is to make religion relevant to our daily life rather than simply maintaining old traditions.”
His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama
Love
“Developing compassion you feel much happier within—more calm, more peaceful—and other people respond to that. Through anger, real peace, friendship, and trust are impossible, but through love we can develop understanding, unity, friendship, and harmony — this is valuable.”
His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama
Time
“Time’s always moving on. Nothing can stop it. The question is whether we use our time well or not. We can’t do anything about the past, but what happens in the future depends on what we do now. We can create a happier future by remembering that in being human we are all the same.”
His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama
Happy Mothers Day!
“”I often think of my mother as my first teacher of compassion. She was simple, uneducated, just a village farmer, but so kind-hearted – her kindness was unconditional. It is the love with which she nurtured me that is the core of the compassion I can find in myself & feel for others”. #MothersDay

Live a happy Life
“As human beings, all 7 billion of us are born the same way and die the same way. Physically, mentally and emotionally we are the same. We all want to live a happy life and avoid problems, but in a materialistic culture we overlook the importance of love and affection.”
His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama
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.”
