Dalai Lama Sour Quotations

Altruism is the best source of happiness. There is no doubt about that.

Some people say that the West has a cruel history. These people also may see the achievements of Western countries - in terms of the economy, education, health, and social achievements - as a result of exploitation of poorer countries, including Arab countries. Western nations get rich by using resources such as Arab oil. Meanwhile, the countries supplying them raw materials remain poor. Due to such injustices, jealousies are created.

More compassionate mind, more sense of concern for other's well-being, is source of happiness.
