Dali Lama - Thoughts to Clarify Your Life

By: Aazdak Alisimo..

The Dali Lama is one of those rare beings whose message applies across all peoples and religions. If you are looking for a bit of focus in your life, considering the following inspiration thoughts from the Dali Lama is a good place to start.

Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck.

Not to identify oneself with something, or to associate things with the me, and to see that the idea that there is a me which is distinct from things is a delusion that is true wisdom.

A spoon cannot taste of the food it carries. Likewise, a foolish man cannot understand the wise mans wisdom even if he associates with a sage.

In our struggle for freedom, truth is the only weapon we possess.

First one must change. I first watch myself, check myself, then expect changes from others.

Learn the rules so you know how to break them properly.

There is a saying in Tibetan, Tragedy should be utilized as a source of strength. No matter what sort of difficulties, how painful experience is, if we lose our hope, that's our real disaster.

A great rock is not disturbed by the wind; the mind of a wise man is not disturbed by either honor or abuse.

To conquer oneself is a greater victory than to conquer thousands in a battle.

Many of the earths habitats, animals, plants, insects and even microorganisms that we know to be rare may not be known at all by future generations. We have the capability and the responsibility to act; we must do so before it is too late.

I believe in justice and truth, without which there would be no basis for human hope.

It is easy to point out the mistakes of others, while it is hard to admit ones own mistakes. A man broadcasts the sins of others without thinking, but he hides his own sins as a gambler hides his extra dice.

Peace and the survival of life on earth as we know it are threatened by human activities that lack a commitment to humanitarian values.

Pride leads to violence and evil. The truly good gaze upon everything with love and understanding.

Dont try to use what you learn from Buddhism to be a Buddhist; use it to be a better whateveryoualreadyare.
