Dear Heaven Maker:
Heaven on Earth is the new story of what it means to be a human and what it means to be Humanity.
Here is a beautiful, sacred offering by His Holiness, The Dalai Lama.
Let his words, thoughts, energy, and the music/chanting of this meditation further open Humanity for you.
Love,
Martin
“Now today, we are in twenty-first century.
A lot of violence, a lot of killing.
All this, you see, due to a lack of human compassion, human affection, a lack of sense of oneness of human brothers, sisters.
We [put] too much emphasis on self-centered attitude and too much emphasis concept of “we and they.”
That’s the basis of killing, bullying, exploitation.
All injustice based on too strong sort of concept of “we and they, me and them.”
Existing modern education not adequate to reduce these things.
Biologically we all have this same potential, great potential there.
Now, education, you see, should nurture that and should promote that.
So now here, time’s come we have to make every effort to promote, through education, about these inner values.
Our Western materialistic life is just one part of the source of human happiness.
Our ultimate goal should be: to bring peace to the world, compassion to the world, irrespective of whether we’re a believer or non-believer, religious minded or not.
We are the same human beings.
Everyone wants happy life, peaceful life.”
– His Holiness The Dalai Lama
