Dalai Lama XIV
“The very best is being able to ask yourself, ‘Why do I want to have a house that has seven rooms when there are only two or three of us? Why do I want to have it?’ And you can turn it on its head and look at how we are in such a mess with climate change because of our galloping consumption, which for the environment has been nothing less than disastrous. So you buy the small electric car instead, and you say, no I don’t need or want that big luxury car. So instead of it being your enemy, now it’s your ally.” Jinpa translated what the Archbishop had said”

“Every day is a new opportunity to begin again. Every day is your birthday.”
Dalai Lama XIV, The Book of Joy: Lasting Happiness in a Changing World

Dalai Lama XIV
“Contemplate that, as long as you are too focused on your self-importance and too caught up in thinking about how you are good or bad, you will experience suffering. Obsessing about getting what you want and avoiding what you don’t want does not result in happiness.”
Dalai Lama XIV, The Book of Joy: Lasting Happiness in a Changing World

Dalai Lama XIV
“New studies conducted by psychology researcher Joseph Forgas show that mild sadness can actually have a number of benefits that could reflect its value. In his experiments, people who were in a sad mood had better judgment and memory, and were more motivated, more sensitive to social norms, and more generous than the happier control group.”
Dalai Lama XIV, The Book of Joy: Lasting Happiness in a Changing World

Dalai Lama XIV
“He taught that when you experience some tragic situation, think about it. If there’s no way to overcome the tragedy, then there is no use worrying too much. So I practice that.”
