The Dalai Lama is one of the best known living ambassadors for peace in the 21st century world we live in. He is famous for his quotes and views on many topics that touch the lives as lived in this modern era, and his signature jovial smile also highlights his inner peace that radiates contentment.
Here are a couple of quotes by the Dalai Lama on the importance of kindness in the world we live today.
Our visit to this planet is short, so we should use our time meaningfully, which we can do by helping others wherever possible. And if we cannot help others, at least we should try not to create pain and suffering for them.
It is important to reflect on the kindness of others. Every aspect of our present well-being is due to others’ hard work. The buildings we live and work in, the roads we travel, the clothes we wear, and the food we eat, are all provided by others. None of them would exist but for the kindness of so many people unknown to us.
