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.

There is an idiot born every second.
I definitely must have done some good deeds in my past lives that in this life, i am born as a Tibetan, growing up around where he lives, circumambulating his home and to be able to understand clearly when he speaks in Tibetan language. #blessed

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: kzread.info/dash/bejne/e4l5zaacj6_Me7Q.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.

We are all the same in essence it's just choices good or bad positive or negative light or dark one situation can be veiwed for many angles most people are concerned with the body but the mind is most important may you be an example for good much love to you
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.

wow such a great teacher for me. He and the religion of Buddhism has change my life in such a positive way, remember everyone it is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe that lures him to his evil ways. Take care everyone(:
He's the ultimate grand father to the entire planet... Tashi Delek Dalai Lama LA
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.
this guy always cracks me up, he is so happy and calm! it makes me smile. I love it be Britain leader! We need more people like you! :)

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
The Dalai Lama is truly wise and selfless. When you hear him speak you realise how few people actually speak purely and without self interest. Nearly every word that comes out most people’s mouths is to benefit them.
He brings joy to my soul
He's so wise☺. Thanks for uploading and sharing this with people all around the world. People who search for some guidance will find this really helpful 😁(just like me). I'm grateful that internet exists, else I did be soooo narrow minded trust me😂.
as ive stated in another talk given by his holiness dalai lama, how many other "holy' leaders have you seen freely share their belifes and concerns on how we can live in harmony with and others and all things what a fine example of what a teacher should be. he teaches in the style of the buddha and jesus what a blessing we have in this enlightened soul thank you sir for practicing what you teach how refreshing you are to us all.
The laughter is so neat, and he SO get's it!! My HERO!
Thanks you so much for being you, my so precious Dalai Lama, you're really a jewel in the Lotus 💎 Love you so, take care of you cause the World needs you 🙏
So great speech, merci beaucoup H.H. Dalai Lama 🙏🏾🌺🌈❤️ y remember your book in French, ' au loin la liberté ' beautiful book tank you very much , nous prions aussi pour toute la communauté tibétaine ainsi que pour tous les peuples, 🙏🏾🌈❤️🕊
I love you Dali Lama!
Thank you from my heart your Holiness Dalai Lama for your wisdom 🍃💖🍃 I totally agree with you.. My wishes are that you will be able to Return to Tibet soon 💕🍃🌍🍃💕✌😊💕
Compassion, spirit of forgiveness and a realistic attitude. That's what brought him inner peace. Great formulation.
I love what you do Your Holiness. A job teaching Humanity to be happy is a huge undertaking. You do a wonderful job for those who listen though. I want to thank you from the depths of my being, and Conciousness all the way to center of the Universe. Kindness for ever!
Compassion forgiveness and a realistic outlook....... I'm feeling better already hearing these great words of wisdom. :)
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.
I had the great honour listening to you speak in Calgary Alberta Canada. I would love to hear you again. Very inspiring and loving. :)

Verehrter Meister ! Danke für Ihre Friedensgedanken, welche wichtig sind. Ich will auch eine weltweite Abrüstung. Dafür setze ich meine künstlerischen Fähigkeiten ein und meinen Lebensmut. Sie sind mir ein LEUCHTENDES VORBILD geworden und darum bedanke ich noch einmal. Ich schreibe es in Deutscher Sprache, weil das meine Heimatsprache ist. THANK YOU . Knox G.Stallbauer am 26.12.2017
Your Holiness! You are Outstanding! You are a sole inspiration in my life! May you live very long and healthy life! Kyabsu Chhe!

I wanted to hear more at the end! The advice was cut! Cause His words give me peace.
So KZread has apparently decided that I watch the Dalai Lama now. No complaints, no complaints whatsoever!
great video, thanks.
Thank-you for your time and consideration. These are important lessons. I say a Clive Barker quote. People are like books. The cover of books vary, but humans like books are Read when opened
To the long life n flourishing activities of his holiness Dalai Lama 🙏🙏🙏

We are all made of this planet. Each and every one of us, Our spirit is the Universe itself. We are all the same. I am you and you are me. We are like waves up on the sea. We rise up take form and have motion Though we are all still the ocean. Kindness for ever!
Awesome, He really altered my understanding of happiness, we even created our own short summary on the book, the art of happiness.
such a wise kind man
He has such a beautiful soul xx
Thank you
I feel like his body language and face along with the words make me able to understand him easily
Great video, information and knowledge as awlays ;)
you are absolutely right!!! thank you for your gift to humanity.
Thankyou your Holiness long Healthy life Tashi Delek
its all about having a good heart
His hollyness show us way to good life.
He knows why Japanese has changed. They used to be happy with family, friends even at work. They were more thoughtful, caring , understanding and wise. No depression.
18:54 the only thing which brings the inner peace is my own inner value, compassion and spiritual forgiveness and also realistic attitude. These things bring inner comfort.
I like your video!
Long Live our beloved Guru 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
the dalai lama and the totality of existence.
Grounded to humanity,masking professionalism of pure truth.
Great words
There are captions for those saying that they cannot understand what he is saying... I can understand what he is saying just fine.
I
i love u his holiness
Thank u
I think that the dalai lama is a role model to us all
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
I’m an atheist but I love his way of life
Long time practitioner...still learning...no question life is better this way.
Hes a wonderful man
are the close captions written or detected by algorithm? google's speech recognition algorithm is tremendous if they weren't written by somebody.
Wonderful soul.
I'm deeply honored and to have the very blessing to be alive with this Wise and Humble person whom I learned so much from.
Long live H The 14 th Dalai Lama. 99% Tibetans pray him with totally trust and love him fully respect .
Om Tara Tuttare Ture Soha🙏🙏🙏
Love!!!
I love this guy! 🙏🏽
He is so adorable 😁🙏🏽🕊
Well done well done well done!!!
I tried to share this but the link wouldn't play in the other app. It kinda goes against the message to block that, don't you think?
Yes
does anyone know and Buddhist groups in South Carolina or the east coast?
I feel like I’d go through your material too quickly to help it keep me alive, tho I don’t know the future
หนูให้พรจ้าสาธุ
The Dalai Lama is our last hope in a world ruled by money. He is a soft person but his speech is very powerful. The truth is always very powerful. He also reaches the people he is on the same level. As an older person he has a lot of live experience.
Senhores eu respeito e proteja toda imagem sua e de todo o seu povo as que são os trabalhadores que pagamos só vou trabalharmas eu não vou parar enquanto não vi a cabeça daquela pouco tá na rua na mão isso é a honra da minha eu não sou
A lot of people seem to think that the moment a self-help guru or spiritual healer gets famous, that's the moment they've "sold-out". I personally am just glad that their teachings reach more and more people tbh :)
Please put subtitles on.
everyone has the ability to be enlightened, I hope people will wake up to this truth. You dont need to dress like a monk and act like the Zen masters.You need a great discipline and consciousness development. You should start with meditation habits 20 mins a day.
