Love for Tibet

"Never give up"

No matter what is going on
Never give up
Develop the heart
Too much energy in your country
Is spent developing the mind
Instead of the heart
Be compassionate
Not just to your friends
But to everyone
Be compassionate
Work for peace
In your heart and in the world
Work for peace
And I say again
Never give up
No matter what is going on around you
Never give up.

- Poem by the Dalai Lama -

The true meaning of life

We are visitors on this planet,
We are here for ninety
Or hundred years
At the very most.
During that period,
We must try to do something good,
Something useful,
With our lives.
If you contribute to other people’s happiness,
You will find the true goal,
The true meaning of life.

- 14th Dalai Lama

Comment by Eva Libre on December 31, 2019 at 1:59am: Is a Happy Journey:

~Watching the doors
Of Thoughts
Speech
And Actions
Is a happy journey
But when we no longer
Have to watch these three doors
Thoughts, Speech and Actions
This is the natural bliss
That all the teachings are
Describing~

Comment by Eva Libre on July 10, 2019 at 12:33am: Buddhism quite clearly insists that there is no difference between others and ourselves but what does that really mean? We must discover the equality of value between others and ourselves to gain peace and reduce stress. Because our need for happiness has always been greater than others happiness, self-cherishing is a problem. Our own pressing need for happiness perhaps has even caused us to do things that hurt others. By placing ourselves on the pedestal of self importance, everyone else seem to be “down there”, ready targets to be manipulated. These distinctions are not only a natural outcome of self-cherishing, but this attitude is even encouraged in some societies more than others, making those cultures more dangerous.

In Tibet, dramatic displays of self-cherishing such as seeing one’s self as superior, was considered to be a social embarrassment. After saying that, I remember that Tibetan nobles did not treat peasants very well, and so, using others, not being nice, and feeling superior was not absent in Tibetan lay society. However, from a dharmic point of view, that was considered to be very bad form! Perhaps Buddhism continues to be badly needed in Tibet!

Comment by Nada Jung on July 8, 2019 at 4:02pm: I hope that you understand what the word ‘spiritual’ really means. It means to search for – to investigate – the true nature of the mind. There’s nothing spiritual outside. My rosary isn’t spiritual; my robes aren’t spiritual. Spiritual means the mind and spiritual people are those who seek its nature.
