This is one of my favorite quotes. This is an example of something the Dalai Lama has called wise selfishness.
If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.
— His Holiness the 14th the Dalai Lama Tenzin Gyatso
I really like this quote. It reminds me on another, from an unknown source, that says “Be Kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle”. I would change the imagery to ‘carrying a heavy burden’.
Somehow i missed the point. Probably lost in translation 🙂 Anyway … nice blog to visit.
cheers, Perfervid!
