Subject: Dalai Lama Quotes
1. Be kind whenever possible.
1a. (Beth Evans adds: This involves practicing being your highest self which is a life long discipline and promotes mental, emotional, physical and spiritual well being.)
2. In the practice of tolerance one’s enemy is the best teacher.
2a. ( I have an aversion to the word tolerance as being a misfit in terms of the divinity of the human design. I think that compassion for those that live in a space that is not their highest expression and puts them at odds with other fellow “human beings” requires us to step away from fear and judgement and respond with compassion and to hold an intention for them that they release their fear and sense of “not being enough” and embrace the fullness of being loved and accepted for who they have the potential of showing up as”. This is the practice of “allowing”.
3. Love and compassion are necessities not luxuries, without them humanity cannot survive.
3a. (Beth Evans adds: Cultivating humanity in ourselves and supporting it in the growth and development of others is really our divine purpose. The tools of love and compassion not only support humanity on a global level, but leads to a happy and enriched life for those that utilize these tools on a daily basis!)
4. We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves.
4a. Beth Evans adds: Peace is a state of mind that wells up inside of us and gives us the ability to live in the present
5. In order to carry a positive action we must develop here a positive vision.
5a.When we carry a positive attitude and identity, we create a positive environment and responses with infinite possibilities for goodness.
6. I am just one human being.
6a. (Beth Evans adds: But imagine that your potential to create beauty, love, joy, peace, justice, compassion, and live a life of integrity is only defined by what you can imagine and commit to manifesting-you could positively impact the world and fulfill your divine purpose!)
7. The roots of all goodness lie in the soil of appreciation for goodness.
7a. We are born into this world as “goodness” being the identity of our souls. Our roots grow deep throughout our lives.
8. Our prime purpose in this life is to help others.
8a. And if you can’t help them at least don’t hurt them.
9. If you want others to be happy practice compassion.
9a. You must first be compassionate and gentle with yourself in order to know how to be compassionate and gentle with others.
10. The best way to resolve any problem in the human world is for all sides to sit down and talk.
10a. (Beth Evans adds: The art of talking or communicating involves listening attentively with an open and receptive mind. The art of communicating successfully is one of the greatest gifts in the human design. Once activated respect, understanding and compromise come into play which promotes resolution and positive relationships.
11. When you practice gratefulness there is a sense of respect toward others.
11a.We must live our lives from a place of gratitude in order to see the blessings we have received.
So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression on yet another beautiful sunset of your life’s journey. May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.
Ashé! Have a Blessed Day!
