In Our Concern For Others, We Worry

Spend Some Time Alone Every Day.

The Real Test Of Compassion Is Not What We Say In Abstract Discussions But How We Conduct Ourselves In Daily Life.

In Some Respects I Have Been The Most Unlucky Because I Have Spent More Time Living As A Refugee Outside My Country Than I Have Spent In Tibet. On The Other Hand, It Has Been Very Rewarding For Me To Live In A Democracy And To Learn About The World In A Way That We Tibetans Had Never Known Before.

Don't Let A Little Dispute Injure A Great Relationship.

We Need A Sense Of The Oneness Of The 7 Billion Human Beings Alive Today. When I Meet People, I Don't Think About Being Different From Them, About Being Tibetan, Buddhist Or Even The Dalai Lama. I Only Think About Being A Human Being. We All Share The Potential For Positive And Negative Emotions, Yet One Of Our Special Qualities Is Our Human Mind, Our Intelligence. If We Use It Well We'll Be Successful And Happy.
