“We have a basic instinct for compassion, but we need to develop it. Concern for others is related to human rights and everyone needs to be assured of their human rights because everyone wants and has a right to be happy.”

Way to Create a happier world!
In my experience, what we need is a calm mind and warm-heartedness provides a basis for that. That’s how we make ourselves happy as individuals in families, local communities and nations. If we can train those who are young today in these qualities we’ll create a happier world.

Looking for Tibet
“At the age of 16 I took responsibility for Tibet at a difficult time and in so doing I lost my freedom. At the age of 24, I lost my country and became a refugee. I have met all kinds of difficulties, but as the Tibetan says, ‘Wherever you are happy, you can call home, and whoever is kind to you is like your parents.’ I lost my country, but I’ve been happy and at home in the world at large. Living a meaningful life is not about acquiring money and other facilities; it’s about dedicating your life to helping others as much as you can.”
His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama
As His Holiness sits silently without a slight sign of his usual smile,
My heart pains in great depth.
As His Holiness gazed towards the homeland hills, as far as his eyesight can reach, My heart pains in great depth.
As His Holiness prays for the well-being of his people, who he couldn’t reach out to,
My heart pains in great depth.

Covid cases in Lhasa
The nerve-wracking news of covid cases detected in my city (Lhasa) has left me and many of my kind in panic. May my prayers from the land of lord Buddha reaches there and shield them from this deadly disease. People’s Liberation Army has taken enough lives of my countrymen and I dare not witness death and destruction anymore.
