More From Dalai Lama

When you're really trying to make serious change, you don't want people to get caught up in emotion because change isn't emotion. because change isn't emotion. its real work and organization and strategy - that's just the truth of it. i mean, you pull people in with inspiration, but then you have to roll up your sleeves and you've got to make sacrifices and you have got to have structure.

There are all sorts of losses people suffer - from the small to the large. you can lose your keys, your glasses, your virginity. you can lose your head, you can lose your heart, you can lose your mind. you can relinquish your home to move into assisted living, or have a child move overseas, or see a spouse vanish into dementia. loss is more than just death, and grief is the gray shape-shifter of emotion.

Times have changed, and science has made great progress, and so has our work; but our principles have only been confirmed, and along with them our conviction that mankind can hope for a solution to its problems, among which the most urgent are those of peace and unity, only by turning its attention and energies to the discovery of the child and to the development of the great potentialities of the human personality in the course of its formation.
