Now Is The Time When Your Action

Many Tibetans Sacrifice Their Lives.

It Is My Fundamental Conviction That Compassion - The Natural Capacity Of The Human Heart To Feel Concern For And Connection With Another Human Being - Constitutes A Basic Aspect Of Our Nature Shared By All Human Beings, As Well As Being The Foundation Of Our Happiness. All Ethical Teachings, Whether Religious Or Nonreligious, Aim To Nurture This Innate And Precious Quality, To Develop It And To Perfect It.

I Don't Think Human Affection And Compassion Are Just Religious Concerns; They're Indispensable Factors In Our Day-to-day Lives.

We Can't Be Useful To Ourselves Unless We're Useful To Others .... Anyone Concerned Only By His Own Well-being Will Suffer Eventually. Anyone Concerned With The Well-being Of Others Takes Care Of Himself Without Even Thinking About It. Even If We Decide To Remain Selfish. Let Us Be Intelligently Selfish - Let Us Help Others.

If We Develop Concern For Other People's Welfare, Share Other People's Suffering, And Help Them, Ultimately We Will Benefit. If We Think Only Of Ourselves And Forget About Others, Ultimately We Will Lose. The More We Care For The Happiness Of Others, The Greater Our Own Sense Of Well-being Becomes.
