"A lot of problems we are facing,..." - Quote by Dalai Lama

“All good qualities must be sown and cultivated. We can’t expect to change overnight from an ordinary person into one with high realizations.”

“When the only bond between close friends is attachment, then even a minor issue may cause one's projections to change. As soon as our projections change, the attachment disappears, because that attachment was based solely on projection and expectation. It is possible to have compassion without attachment, and similarly, to have anger without hatred.”

“Basically, from the viewpoint of real human value we are all the same.”

“Your biggest problem, is that you think the current problem you're facing is your problem”

“We don't have to feel negative about weeds. They're a part of life. We need to see them, acknowledge them, focus on the solution, and immediately do whatever it takes to eliminate their influence from our lives.”

“Problems are not my problem. It's not what happens to me but what happens in me that matters.”

“Compassion is an act of tolerance where kindness and forgiveness reign. When we make the compassionate choice, we enhance the dignity of each individual, which is the very essence of loving them.”

“Compared with men, it is probable that brutes neither attend to abstract characters, nor have associations by similarity. Their thoughts probably pass from one concrete object to its habitual concrete successor far more uniformly than is the case with us. In other words, their associations of ideas are almost exclusively by contiguity. So far, however, as any brute might think by abstract characters instead of by association of con cretes, he would have to be admitted to be a reasoner in the true human sense. How far this may take place is quite uncertain.”

“When untouchability is rooted out, these distinctions will vanish and no one will consider himself superior to any other.”
