More From Dalai Lama

Only Through The Development Of Mutual Respect, And In A Spirit Of Truth, Can Friendship Come About. By These Means It Is Possible To Move Human Minds, But Never By Force.

Human Beings Are Of Such Nature That They Should Have Not Only Material Facilities But Spiritual Sustenance As Well. Without Spiritual Sustenance, It Is Difficult To Get And Maintain Peace Of Mind.

Helping Others Is Not Limited To Providing Food, Shelter, And So Forth, But Includes Relieving The Basic Causes Of Suffering And Providing The Basic Causes Of Happiness.

Hatred, Jealousy And Excessive Attachment Cause Suffering And Agitation. I Feel Compassion Can Help Us Overcome These Disturbances And Let Us Return To A Calm State Of Mind. Compassion Is Not Just Being Kind To Your Friend. That Involves Attachment Because It Is Based On Expectation. Compassion Is When You Do Something Good Without Any Expectations - Based On Realizing That "the Other Person Is Also Just Like Me".

My Religion Is Kindness.
