common-sense people support
We all have the potential to show others love and affection, but as we progress in our materialistic world, these values tend to remain dormant. We can develop them on the basis of common sense, common experience and scientific findings. The response to the recent tragedy in the Philippines is an example of how such values are awakened; people helped simply because others are suffering and in need of support.
common-experience fields modern
My main hope is eventually, in modern education field, introduce education about warm-heartedness, not based on religion, but based on common experience and a common sort of sense, and then scientific finding.
common-sense way humans
There must be a way of promoting human values without involving religion, based on common sense, experience and recent scientific findings.
communication common confrontation
We have global communication and yet confrontation is more common than dialogue.
common-sense together today
Today different ethnic groups and different nations come together due to common sense.
lying heart common-humanity
Always embrace the common humanity that lies at the heart of us all.
anxiety facts wealthy
In fact, being wealthy often brings even more anxiety.
I am confident that the next century will be better than this one.
tolerance important virtue
Tolerance is an important virtue of bodhisattvas .
people chinese violence
I only escaped from Tibet because I feared my people would resort to desperate violence if the Chinese took me as their prisoner.
spiritual people fields
Spiritually, yes, now many people knows Tibetans in spiritual field are very, very advanced but in material field is very, very backward.
buddhist order enemy
If the situation was such that there was only one learned lama or genuine practitioner alive, a person whose death would cause the whole of Tibet to lose all hope of keeping its Buddhist way of life, then it is conceivable that in order to protect that one person it might be justified for one or 10 enemies to be eliminated if there was no other way.
thinking competition female
I think, that in the twenty-second century, there will be more female reincarnations at female institutions. Then there'll be competition between male lama institutions and female lama institutions. It'll be a positive sort of competition.
buddhism thinking males
I think when religions such as Hinduism and Buddhism - as well as Christianity and Judaism - were founded, at that time societies were generally male-dominated. So, therefore this social notion also influenced religion.
