In honor of the Dalai Lama coming to Atlanta this week. Here are some of my favorite quotes by him

His Holliness or as some refer to him HH visited Emory University this week.  In honor of HH coming to Atlanta I wanted to post some of my favorite Dalai Lama quotes!


"If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito." — Dalai Lama 

"Every day, think as you wake up, today I am fortunate to be alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others; to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings. I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can." — Dalai Lama

"If you can cultivate the right attitude, your enemies are your best spiritual teachers because their presence provides you with the opportunity to enhance and develop tolerance, patience and understanding." — Dalai Lama
