Tenzin Gyatso, The 14th Dalai Lama
 People are too serious. All the time, too serious. |
| Personally I'm quite jovial with not much worry. I do my best, which is moderation, and failure doesn't matter. |
| Self-discipline is crucial to a simpler, more contented life. |
| Some consider me as a living Buddha. That's nonsense. That's silly. That's wrong. If they consider me a simple Buddhist monk, however, that's probably okay. |
| The deep root of failure in our lives is to think, 'Oh how useless and powerless I am.' It is essential to think strongly and forcefully, 'I can do it,' without boasting or fretting. |
| The essence of Buddhism is if you can, help others. If not, then at least refrain from hurting others. |
| The foundation of the Buddha's teachings lies in compassion, and the reason for practicing the teachings is to wipe out the persistence of ego, the number-one enemy of compassion. |
| The main difference between us, Buddhism and other philosophies, is that we do not accept the notion of a living god, but rather that we are responsible for our future happiness. |
| The time has come to think more wisely, hasn't it? |
| The true antidote to greed is contentment. If you have a strong sense of contentment, it doesn't matter whether you obtain the object of your desire or not. Either way, you are still content. |
| The way to overcome negative thoughts and destructive emotions is to develop opposing, positive emotions that are stronger and more powerful. |
| There can be no peace as long as there is grinding poverty, social injustice, inequality, oppression, environmental degradation, and as long as the weak and small continue to be trodden by the mighty and powerful. |
| There is a danger when I speak in English that you will get misunderstanding, because I use the wrong word. Sometimes I confuse the words pessimism and optimism. |
| There is an old Tibetan saying: wherever you feel at home, you are at home. If your surroundings are pleasant, you are at home. |
| Time is always moving. The important thing is to learn from the past and then look forward to the future. |
