- Lobsang Tenpaje citiraoпре 9 година
I’ve noticed, whenever I follow the Dalai Lama around, that people’s faces don’t light up much when he says, “Dream— nothing!” in stressing to a questioner that for a resolution of her situation, “the main responsibility lies on your own shoulders,” or when he says, “We expect peace, compassion to come from the sky. Nonsense! Someone must start it,” in reminding us of the virtue of real action instead of daydreaming. Over and over, he counsels a practical realism and a refusal to get caught up in the lures and distraction of mindless optimism, least of all the kind that comes from indiscriminate faith. This emphasis on how much we can do ourselves lies at the heart of his own optimism and infectious confidence; yet it’s not always the part that most of us want to hear. - Lobsang Tenpaje citiraoпре 9 годинаA pickpocket encounters a saint, the Tibetans say, and all he sees are the other man’s pockets.
