Dalai Lama Quotes and Sayings



All major religious traditions carry basically the same message, that is love, compassion and forgiveness the important thing is they should be part of our daily lives.
~Dalai Lama Quotes
 --------------
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
~Dalai Lama Quotes
 -------------
I myself feel, and also tell other Buddhists that the question of Nirvana will come later.
There is not much hurry.
If in day to day life you lead a good life, honesty, with love, with compassion, with less selfishness, then automatically it will lead to Nirvana.
~Dalai Lama Quotes
 -------------
If the love within your mind is lost and you see other beings as enemies, then no matter how much knowledge or education or material comfort you have, only suffering and confusion will ensue.
~Dalai Lama Quotes
 -------------
We humans have existed in our present form for about a hundred thousand years. I believe that if during this time the human mind had been primarily controlled by anger and hatred, our overall population would have decreased. But today, despite all our wars, we find that the human population is greater than ever. This clearly indicates to me that love and compassion predominate in the world. And this is why unpleasant events are "news"; compassionate activities are so much a part of daily life that they are taken for granted and , therefore, largely ignored.
~Dalai Lama Quotes
 -------------
Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
~Dalai Lama Quotes
 ------------
“The whole purpose of religion is to facilitate love and compassion, patience, tolerance, humility, and forgiveness.”
― Dalai Lama XIV
 -------------
“Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.”
― Dalai Lama XIV
 ---------------
“When we meet real tragedy in life, we can react in two ways--either by losing hope and falling into self-destructive habits, or by using the challenge to find our inner strength.”
― Dalai Lama XIV
 ------------
“Remember that sometimes not getting what you want is a wonderful stroke of luck.”
― Dalai Lama XIV
 --------------
The creatures that inhabit this earth--be they human beings or animals--are here to contribute, each in its own particular way, to the beauty and prosperity of the world.”
― Dalai Lama XIV
 ------------
“Irrespective of whether we are believers or agnostics, whether we believe in God or karma, moral ethics is a code which everyone is able to pursue.”
― Dalai Lama XIV, Path to Tranquility
 -----------
If you don’t love yourself, you cannot love others. You will not be able to love others. If you have no compassion for yourself then you are not able of developing compassion for others.
~Dalai Lama Quotes
 -------------
Human potential is the same for all. Your feeling, “I am of no value”, is wrong. Absolutely wrong. You are deceiving yourself. We all have the power of thought – so what are you lacking? If you have willpower, then you can change anything. It is usually said that you are your own master.
~Dalai Lama Quotes
 ------------
We must recognize that the suffering of one person or one nation is the suffering of humanity. That the happiness of one person or nation is the happiness of humanity.
~Dalai Lama Quotes
 -----------
Through violence, you may ‘solve’ one problem, but you sow the seeds for another.
~Dalai Lama Quotes
 -------------
As people alive today, we must consider future generations: a clean environment is a human right like any other. It is therefore part of our responsibility toward others to ensure that the world we pass on is as healthy, if not healthier, than we found it.
~Dalai Lama Quotes
 -----------
To conquer oneself is a greater victory than to conquer thousands in a battle.
~Dalai Lama Quotes
 ------------
“Compassion is the radicalism of our time.”
― Dalai Lama XIV
 -----------
“It is under the greatest adversity that there exists the greatest potential for doing good, both for oneself and others.”
― Dalai Lama XIV
 ------------
“The way to change others' minds is with affection, and not anger.”
― Dalai Lama XIV
-------------

We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves.
~Dalai Lama Quotes
---------------
Where ignorance is our master, there is no possibility of real peace.
