Sir you helped me through the worst of problems. I am a Muslim but living in Singapore, I encountered some horrible problems and felt suicidal. I went to a monk who said, Buddhism is a concept not a religion, I am not here to indoctrinate but rather love and help you as your Muslim self. The monk really helped me. I believe without the monk I may of not been here today. You are an amazing human being Dalai Lama and I hope utmost peace to be delivered to you. You brought me so much inner comfort.

The Lama is not anything, either, my friend. Even a identification like that is limiting. To call someone this or that is an attempt for us as humans to use our senses as scalpels to dissect the world into categories. There are no such things but concepts made by us. Therefore, you are only these things if you value social wealth. If you do not value social wealth, you cannot understand what is inside these categories. Do you see now that the Lama does not identify as a Buddhist in a personal sense, but from a perspective that it is comfortable for the perceive to add him to a category. Therefore he lets himself be categorized by others but not by the self. If you asked him, he would probably shrug and smile. He touches this in this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f7t1nqeUxLLKe4U.html Use this method for yourself and you will see the meaningless you find in not being anything to be the most valuable thing you have. Live well, my friend. With love.

Why did 257 people vote 'thumbs down'? There is NOTHING this incredible human being says that should ever make someone disagree with. His compassion, humble approach to life, and superb words of wisdom are food for the mind and soul. You don't have to be buddhist to appreciate what he says. He never preaches religion or telling someone they are doing anything wrong... unless you violate the laws of karma.

The value of such peaceful listening to the mind surpasses all other values, so it is considered a priceless pearl. Nothing in life can compare to the value of inner peace, because no matter how rich you are, how high your fame, how powerful you are, you will still suffer as usual if you don't realize it. That pearl of peace and serenity in yourself.

Thank you, Your Holiness, for sharing such profound wisdom about inner peace, inner values, and mental states. Your words serve as a beacon of light, guiding us towards greater understanding and compassion in a world that often feels chaotic. Your teachings remind us of the power and resilience within our own minds and hearts. Inner peace, as you've wonderfully put it, is not a destination but a journey of nurturing our values and fostering a harmonious mental state. I am deeply grateful for these insightful teachings that offer us practical tools for cultivating peace and mindfulness in our daily lives. Your timeless wisdom continually inspires us to be better individuals, and for that, we are eternally grateful. #HHDalaiLama #InnerPeace #MentalWellbeing

You know one thing I always found fascinating about buddhism and other major religions with millions of followers is how much they all have in common or how much they seem to pull away from each other. Christianity is all about loving one another. Now many people might disagree but that's perfectly fine as not everyone has experienced christianity the same way but at its core the main thing that the bible teaches us is to love one another and have compassion for your fellow man. Islam is all about devotion. As someone who grew up in church I could tell you who came to church because it was an obligation and who came because they loved jesus and want to spend time with God that day. And I honestly did not see as much devotion in Christian's as I do in muslims at least that's what it felt and looked like to me. Buddhism is all about mind and spirit, detaching oneself from this world and its problems and focusing on ones inner thoughts and really digging deep so to speak and really contemplating who you are. We can learn a great deal from trump followers of each of these religions but I just wished to point out an observation that I've made on these religions.

Venting frustration/sadness/anger in front of others instead of dealing with the issue. Two friends of my mother comes to mind. Always so uncertain even now in their 40's. Either calling or showing up just to talk for 2 hours about stuff they could deal with. It's not even something serious most of the time, some unpleasant remark or action at work etc. If the suffering is due to my own mistakes, then i will keep it to myself and try my best to deal with it. Nobody can carry us past the finishing line. I feel sorry for my mother who has to listen to this. It's seldom a visit without "bad news" being brought up
