Noticing a single shortcoming in ourselves… by Dalai Lama
Also reminds me of the quote by Bosch… “Be quick to judge yourself and slow to judge others.”
Noticing a single shortcoming in ourselves is far more useful than seeing a thousand in someone else. When it is our own: we can correct it.

I used these quotes today in a reply post to Scott Gould on Facebook. I’ve just re-read them again and think others may enjoy them too.
Dalai Lama
Satisfaction is characterized by inner peace. It arises from generosity, honesty and what I call ethical conduct, a way of behaving that respects others’ right to be happy.
Dalai Lama
Once you shift your focus from yourself to others and extend your concern to others, this will have the immediate effect of opening up your life and helping you to reach out. The practice of cultivating altruism has a beneficial effect not only from a religious point of view but also from a mundane point of view; not o…nly for long-term spiritual development but even in terms of immediate rewards.
Dalai Lama with Richard Moore
“You are my hero; while I talk about forgiveness, you have made it part of your life. This is a wonderful model for others to follow” < wow, so humbling.

Love and Compassion = Inner tranquillity (via Dalai Lama)
Great wisdom (as always)…
Dalai Lama Experience has taught me that the greatest inner tranquility comes from developing love and compassion. The more we care for the happiness of others, the greater our own sense of well-being. Cultivating a close, warm-hearted feeling for others automatically puts our mind at ease. It helps remove our own fears and insecurities and gives us strength to face obstacles – it is the ultimate source of success in life.
