The Purpose Of Life Is To Increase

If Someone Remains In A Peaceful And Tranquil State Of Mind, External Surroundings Can Cause Them Only A Limited Disturbance.

Once You Develop Confidence In Your Own Ability, You'll Be Able To Make A Real Contribution To Creating A Better World. Self-confidence Is Very Important. Not In The Sense Of Blind Pride, But As A Realistic Awareness Of What You Can Do. As Human Beings We Can Transform Ourselves By Our Good Qualities And Reducing Our Faults. Our Intelligence Enables Us To Judge What Is Good From What Is Harmful.

Compassion Is A Mental Quality That Can Bring Us True Lasting Inner Peace And Inner Strength.

There Is A Saying In Tibetan That "at The Door Of The Miserable Rich Man Sleeps The Contented Beggar". The Point Of This Saying Is Not That Poverty Is A Virtue, But That Happiness Does Not Come With Wealth, But From Setting Limits To One's Desires, And Living Within Those Limits With Satisfaction.

It Is My Dream That The Entire Tibetan Plateau Should Become A Free Refuge Where Humanity And Nature Can Live In Peace And In Harmonious Balance. It Would Be A Place Where People From All Over The World Could Come To Seek The True Meaning Of Peace Within Themselves, Away From The Tensions And Pressures Of Much Of The Rest Of The World
