Tashi Delek!

To commemorate the visit to Britain by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.
Many Tashi Deleks* to his Holiness and all beings.


Quotes from the Dalai Lama's talks and teachings:


"If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion."


"Love and kindness are the very basis of society. If we lose these feelings,
society will face tremendous difficulties; the survival of humanity will be
endangered"


"Whether one believes in a religion or not, and whether one believes in rebirth or not, there isn't anyone who doesn't appreciate kindness and compassion."


"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."


" Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them.!


*Tashi Delek is an everyday Tibetan greeting. Literally Tashi means auspicious and delek means fine. So saying 'many tashi deleks' means auspicious greetings.
