Warm Heart
“If you have a warm heart and you care for others you’ll be happy and the community in which you live will be happier too.”
His Holiness the great 14th Dalai Lama
We all have a sense of Community
“Wherever I go, I always feel the people I meet are the same as human beings like me. Scientists have also observed that we human beings are social animals. We have a sense of community. Right from birth we have the same feelings of closeness to those around us.”
His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama
Train Happy Individuals
“The aim of education should be to train happy individuals who make up a peaceful society. It requires warm-heartedness and taking a broad-minded, holistic and far-sighted approach that enables people to cope, whatever happens. It entails focussing on the good of the community.”
His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama
Happy Community
“I pray each day that every human being, indeed every sentient being, should be happy. So, if you come across individuals facing problems, help them. Share their problems and try to bring them peace of mind. Wherever you live, try to create a happy community.”
His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama
Community is crucial
“Helping others brings deep satisfaction. No matter how powerful we may seem to be, our survival depends on the community. Clearly the community is crucial to individual happiness, so if we make others happy, we too derive benefit.”
His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama
