My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.
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.
We can never obtain peace in the outer world
until we make peace with ourselves.
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
If you have no compassion for yourself then you are not
able to develop compassion for others.
If you want others to be happy, practice compassion.
If you want to be happy, practice compassion.
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.
- H.H. the Dalai Lama
