Me too!

The Dalai Lama always be like:"You can not buy inner peace at the super market, you can only create peace of mind within your mind"

And show compassion.

Same experience here. He is the most inspiring, beautiful person I know of.

I read the art of happiness and it is the best book I ever read, I'm 22 and hadn't read a book from cover to cover in around 10 years but I luckily bought this one and loved it. I signed up again to the library after a similar hiatus but the books I got were rubbish, I felt though I improved myself a lot during the Summer I have stagnated a bit, so that's why I'm on these videos :) I am trying to be nicer to everyone, always working on this, trying to respect myself a lot more, trying to be more happy and funny than ever before. And also I am working on myself for in relationships, I have good friends but don't really keep girls around for too long. I attract them by just being funny and witty them things go well but I feel I get too clingy and doubt myself then they lose interest. I am working on this I know it's a problem I want to be able to have a long term relationship not 2 months. Met a girl last night, something may or may not happen but I want to put myself in a happy....

Position where she would want to be with me rather than me being desperate trying to keep them interested. I did exactly what the Dalai Lama said you shouldn't do talking about I and myself there but sorry just needed to get it all out haha. He is amazing.

I hope you looked at the teachings of Jesus. The teachings are important, Jesus as well as the Buddha lived humbly, had compassion and love for every human being. Their teachings are what will save us. I hope your doing ok with your depression. You can and will beat it!!! I believe in you, and you should believe in yourself.. Good luck Brother!! Have a great night!!!

Christianity isn't about what you can get to fix you it's what you give to God and be ok with suffering to give...but... I was a buhddist for 10 years before I could come near Christianity with ANY understanding of it. I needed bihddism to stop my anxiety before I could be happy to give as a Christian. I understand maybe a tiny bit but don't be mad at Christianity it has a deep understanding that comes later. Resent nothing . It is holding onto something that will compromise your compassion for Christians

Need not to disappoint :) there are loads who love him too. And we are peaceful in our mind and silent. If there are love, there are hate. They co exist. We live in circle of Samsara anyway. Let's not be disappointed with hateful mind of others, lets cultivate kindness in ourself instead.

Unfortunately the communists see him as a terrorist for having radical ideas like human rights for Tibetans

I also feel the same when I do this

Not creating the circumstances to have debts would be a good place to start. Debt is a type of slavery some people say. All the best ! :D

You may think about how you got into debts

Willennium well said! It's so true

***** I know Buddhism has two aspects, the ethical and the contemplative, and so being a Buddhist the Dalai Lama would have to respect meditation. But at least in his more public talks he only emphasises the ethical, says very little about the contemplative, which is what opens up the ego and makes truly ethical action possible, rather than just obedience to super-egoic demands instilled in us by the likes of the Dalai Lama and other religious authorities.

Like 3 years late to this, but I'll still throw this out; I think it'd be very difficult to have similar impact on people by talking about mediation and stuff, as would that really be something with which you'd get a lot of people to attend in foreign universities, or even get a place to talk in a foreign university? In his Indian residence at Dharamsala, I think he focuses a lot more on teaching the spiritual and meditative side of Buddhism. But in this video, he's talking to a Western audience and he's aware of that. He's wanting to convey as much useful, positive change as possible in very little time. Would talking about the benefits of meditation be as useful in conveying this message of peace and altruism which is what he ultimately wishes to spread?

That's what he's saying! Happiness is within, do not seek it without!

+Filip Velkov Btw very kawaii picture you have :)

Filip Velkov :) Thank you

Filip Velkov Well, I didn't even finish the vid. But I all ready has the wisdom. LOL

+JackSuer He was also telling that you should forget "I" and "me" and be more compassionate towards other people and that is the way to find inner happiness.
