Reading some of the comments below scare me. The teachings of the Dalai lama is about peace and love. Don't bring religion into this please .... All I see from religion is segregation and isolation . The anger coming from some people in this comment feed is uncalled for. Live your life with an open and caring heart and it's a simple formula for a beautiful life. The Dalai lama is a wonderful human being.
the so-called heavenly deity of compassion and wisdom once again shows his true nature. His passion and happiness are infectious and motivating. FREE TIBET.
he has a lot of knowledge and he has probably pondered on his message for a long time. How to reach out to the big mass, the mass that needs to understand in order to change something in the world. Charisma, message and truth- and how to improve your own life. That's what everybody seek.
I agree with the Dalia Lama that finding the Purpose of Life through compassion really does give your life meaning, purpose and happiness. It has work many time in my own life experiences. It has given me a truly Enlightened Purpose.
dear Dalai Lama, please enjoy your retirement after shouldering so many responsibilities with such grace, Thank you for everything, may your words continue to teach and inspire!
Life itself doesn't die, it has continued for 4 billion years. Perhaps there's something in that which explains why compassion (doing good for other living things) is satisfying.
Though Buddhism is a religion I find there are alot of teachings that are very true and are helpful. Like compassion you dont need to be religious to be compassionate all you have to be is compassionate.
our only purpose in life is that in which we gave ourselves a long time ago, that is our purpose. our task is to remember what that purpose was and for that we need enlightenment. to reach enlightenment we must be compassionate and calm and kind to all creatures and like tha dali said we will live life without regret and therfore fulfilling ur lifes purpose. act in this way and spread love to understand the deeper meaning behind ourselves.
The Dalai Lamas voice alone is calming, and although his English is very good I do not understand every word unfortunately. That's okay though, I will listen multiple times ❤️🙏
Thank you for this video. Another thought to ponder "Your Mission Blueprint forms the Structure of your life which is the WHAT, WHEN , WHERE , HOW, WHO aspect of your life of how you are going to take the evolving structure of your life"
But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, full of mercy & good fruit, unwavering & without hypocrisy. The fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by them who make peace. Happiness is fleeting. Joy is eternal and comes from knowing the true living God, Jesus Christ. In Him is the fulness of deity in bodily form.
I am free from labels and ideologies :) But I am witness to great knowledge from the simplests of fools, and the victim of transgressions by the imaculate. I seek all, but pursue none, see the zero, and the one, and love them both equally as my own mother, as myself. As I love you! Set yourself free lanoo, the universe is calling you.
Absolutely, and through method, wisdom, and compassion, and the rest...enumerated by Atisha and the rest, we can knock those training wheels off by and by!!! Excellent! Excellent!! Excellent!!!
It is not only necessary to have compassion for the friend it is also essential to have compassion for the foe. Empathy does not preclude the presence of a feeling of dislike or disagreement with another. Understanding anything completely is impossible, But having compassion in your work and life transcends all religions, allowing us to understand differences and embrace diversity.
Peter, thank you for putting this Video There is only one purpose in life which is to find Peace every moment. I am very focused to get this peace of mind for that I am using all means like videos, audios and even a mobile app called "BuDhamma" to practice noble 8 fold path Lets us implement our knowledge of scriptures into Practical day to day living Thanks and Peace to All...
so that will make your life miserable, the concept of Savior in Christianity has really big difference in what really the prophets had written, none of them was fulfilled. Christianity is more of a dualistic concept heavily influenced by Rome, Greek and pre-Islamic Persian empire, which is why rejected by the Jews. There is no Satan(fallen angel from spirit world) in Hebrew scriptures, All are in G-d's team. But I say, if people are seeking for enlightenment let them seek. They are putting an effort to make themselves a lot better and meaningful.
i do not seek answers, I simply seek :) often I find when someone claims to have answers they often simply have desires...be wary of the confident, even if they are simply confidently unconfident
This is so true, I'm practicing on compassion and I feel the changing in me take place. I used to hate Chinese government and Muslim, but now that is changing I don't hate them. Just simply because I don't like that hatred feeling. I just avoid filling my heart my mind with unpleasant feeling. With compassion I see myself in others.
The purpose of life is to survive and multiply. Anything beyond that is just what man do with his Idle Time. Within this Idle Time, he creates convoluted theories on his purpose of existing.
i think the ultimate goal of Life is making ourself happy .. if we' happy we' may make others happy and that would be a circle of happy Life. happy in a good sense.
Many people only implement compassion due to their religious obligations. Almost like a moral tally chart if you will; "if this deed goes undone, I may suffer hell." instead of "if this deed goes undone, then the suffering of the other party will continue when it doesn't have to." I have up-most strength in God, our Lord, but exactly, I do not need His rules to make me do right. I do right, because it's right. The strongest force is Love. And it wouldn't surprise me if that was God's intention.
I find it very interesting that he would want to come to Australia, a very compassionate place I feel. Money really in the eyes of God is a waste of time, I know you all feel it is important but compassion is important. Care for all be compassionate.
your answers are within, not without, stop asking for someone to guide you, search within to know yourself, and all the secrets you wish you knew will be disclosed in plain sight. You need more time observing the nature of your mind. Observe your behavior, observe these discussions you're invoking. Observe the mind behind the actions, and observe the actions that follow the mind. Your answers have been silenced by your will to be guided. You are the guide...let yourself be. Just be.
Thanks, but please know we're all just mirrors my friend, what you see in the reflection is what you project. So if you like what you see in one person, realize the world is waiting to reflect that very same projection. Often, the world as a whole rises (or lowers) to the level of our expectations. Its only scary out there if we don't realize we're all in this together. Its not me that you should be thankful for...its YOU! So, thank you for being such a pleasant reflection! :)
@vatandust Thank you for your reply, im happy to see that you are mature enough to at least hear what others have to say, I didnt expect it to be honest.....And im glad to hear that the Quran teaches to help one another, i just hope that people understand that whether your Boudist, Muslim, Jew, Christian, whatever....we are all human.
I prefer not to call it anything...I am aware of my actions, I see, and I seek, but I do not exist :) why do you keep trying to find an opposing view...can't you see that I am merely a reflection of you...you're arguing with yourself. This is your chance to show the universe you've really been paying attention. Relinquish yourself from your ideology. Free your mind and you'll find your heart leads you back into the light. Don't be afraid, you're very close.
I believe we are attempting to reach our full potential, but we are still learning how to be human. Although we would like to believe we are not animals, the truth is the contrary. We have been animals longer than we have been humans! The training wheels are still on!
we are all one! united in our experience of life! all of one essence! thats why the old saying goes "when you hurt others you hurt yourself"! "when you lie to others your lying to yourself"! thats why you have to respect yourself, others and the world around you! no "self" harming actions :)
Humans are animals, it's not a pejorative term. We are all primate mammals. We create our on purpose, instead of surviving and procreating. Our brain has the capability to surpass our instinct thanks to this very well evolved function of consciousness, self-awareness. There is something infantile in the presumption that somebody else has a responsibility to give your life meaning and point; the truly adult view is that our life is as meaningful, as full and as wonderful as we choose to make it.
THE MOST FUNDAMENTAL QUESTION OF ALL: . What is the underlying law of nature. . As the way of all things, what effect do you suppose its question, knowledge, understanding and application by billions of persons will have on the state of global economics, science, the humanities, education, government and business? . The underlying law of nature is the most important subject any person can investigate and learn about, can proceed to understand, and can then come to personally apply in life.
NOno no most ppl average ppl will not understand this. YOu are born to understand what this man speaks about. Those who read religion or isolation into this are no offense the worker ants. Just as a duck swims, a wolf howls, you segregate. It is not your fault you don't understnad. I just began to understand when I hit rock bottom in my life. Even most harvard Grads are not able to understand this. Hope this helps
Expectation and statisfaction Should be balanced or never expect also good option for happy life. I like donkey who do very Hardwork instead of that donkeys gets nothing but still he is satisfied in his life because he didn't expect.
@eyereflect Finally someone else gets it. He doesn't throw religion on anyone and their here arguing about it. Religion does nothing but tear people apart. If there is in fact a god what god would want us fighting with each other over how we view him.
If there's no purpose ...what is the point of being happy ? Happiness is just state of mind which can be altered, from one thought of emotion to the next at the speed of thought. What is truly happy ? Happiness has various expressions and manifestations ... For some sadism is happiness, to another masochism is happiness, and still another gluttony is happiness. So again ...what is true happiness ?
The problem with his statement is that he never gave a good example to these people about what compassion really is/means. If you do something for someone else it has to be without ANY catch at all or then it is a contract. That's the problem with the church. Giving to the poor, give a donation etc.
but dont you understand the violence behind the label? Seperating yourself from other humanity by defining one as a "buddhist""christian" "taoist" etc, is seperating yourself from the one in all, humanity
We must not forgive those who commit the worse of crimes such as child predators/rapist QUOTE “He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it " Martin Luther King Jr
Why does making others happy make you happy? What fundamental human instinct does this relate too. Yes I've experienced it but I don't fully understand it.
I want to know how to develop the compassion. sometimes you just dont like people. how do you overcome that. even happens with people close to you (e.g. parents)
@aryagerardo i agree with you ... Sort of. I find a lot of people try looking for happiness in tangible things (eg drugs, possessions [including people being used in possessive ways]), and they expect these to keep them happy. The older i get, the more i feel true happiness starts from within, and can spread to anyone you encounter thruogh the day. I don't consider that selfish. If i walked through life screaming at everyone just on principle, i'd consider that much more selfish
you see, as a christian my job is to try convert people to christianity, because jesus told us to do so. but i respect all faiths, especially islam and judaism, because they have same god as i have, but also example hinduism is good, because they see divinity differently, they haven't discovered there is only one god:)

The unique thing about Buddhism is that it can be viewed as a perspective instead of a religion.
Yes its a philosophy not a religion 😍
@@rangikasiriwardana9203 it's sprituality*😊🤟
you could say that about literally any religion, it's all just a way of thinking to the one who thinks that way.
@@valq10 I would say that doctrinal religions (one of which I try to follow) are more than a perspective or philosophy
It’s a psychology more than anything else.
the so-called heavenly deity of compassion and wisdom once again shows his true nature. His passion and happiness are infectious and motivating. FREE TIBET.
I love you Dalai Lama, you are the wisest amongst all!! Always simple and direct.
Compassion is so powerful. Thanks for sharing this.
The teachings of this man comes from his heart. 🙏🙏🙏
he has a lot of knowledge and he has probably pondered on his message for a long time. How to reach out to the big mass, the mass that needs to understand in order to change something in the world. Charisma, message and truth- and how to improve your own life. That's what everybody seek.

Ever since I began studying buddhism I have found myself much happier and I have been looked upon for answers when those answers are in everyone.
dear Dalai Lama, please enjoy your retirement after shouldering so many responsibilities with such grace, Thank you for everything, may your words continue to teach and inspire!
I don't care what people say about him, his message is superb.
Life itself doesn't die, it has continued for 4 billion years. Perhaps there's something in that which explains why compassion (doing good for other living things) is satisfying.
This is so easy to understand and reach that we don’t even give it any value
Thank you Dalai Lama!!!! Peace!
🙏😇🙆♂️Thank you Sir. I feel like you are my Father as well😊
Long Live The Dalai Lama !!

true happiness is the happiness you bring to others. Make others feel happy and you 2 will feel happy.

your attachment to that ideology is the only thing keeping you in the darkness

The Dalai Lama is not very good at explaining concepts such as compassion but he obviously has the right intent. I suppose that's good enough..
Thanks, but please know we're all just mirrors my friend, what you see in the reflection is what you project.

And We have not sent you ( prophet Muhammad ) except as a mercy to the worlds.(The Quran 21:107)
I agreed about what you have said, I just wanted to detail your assertions about animal instinct, that's it.
I believe we are attempting to reach our full potential, but we are still learning how to be human. Although we would like to believe we are not animals, the truth is the contrary. We have been animals longer than we have been humans! The training wheels are still on!
Yes, of course, some of us are not worthy of even being called animals with the atrocities happening around us.
we are all one! united in our experience of life! all of one essence! thats why the old saying goes "when you hurt others you hurt yourself"! "when you lie to others your lying to yourself"! thats why you have to respect yourself, others and the world around you! no "self" harming actions :)
So he has a platform; he uses it well.
Humans are animals, it's not a pejorative term. We are all primate mammals. We create our on purpose, instead of surviving and procreating.

There is something infantile in the presumption that somebody else has a responsibility to give your life meaning and point; the truly adult view is that our life is as meaningful, as full and as wonderful as we choose to make it.
Although china is doing wrong, we must still demonstrate compassion towards them, or otherwise happiness is impossible.

True. But you should read "Man's Search for Meaning." The guy talks about finding meaning and love, even in the death camps during the Holocaust.
namaste
Search for: "The Purpose of Life The Motive of Existence" you will find a video explaining the purpose!
Expectation and statisfaction
Should be balanced or never expect also good option for happy life.
I like donkey who do very Hardwork instead of that donkeys gets nothing but still he is satisfied in his life because he didn't expect.
Thank You
love you man, don't be afraid, it will all be ok soon ;)
หนูให้พรจ้าสาธุ
at a very basic level, yes. But we are something more than animals.
