Tibetan Faces

 

"My love for the earth is discovered In the truths that lie behind these faces"

I'm an adult but see the world through the eyes of a child, in constant  wonder and awe with the beauty, the sadness, the intensity
and the power we call Earth (or Life).

I have learned in my world travels that you can love any country as much as the country you were born in. I am particularly in love with the Himalayan countries. They inspires me in art and in my thinking. It is a way of life that I now call my own.

        I am serving the Tibetan cause

with the motivation of service to humankind,
not for reasons of power, not out of hatred.
Not just as a Tibetan but as a human being,
I think it is worthwhile,
to preserve that culture, that nation,
to contribute to world society.

We Tibetans have an equal right to
maintain our own distinctive culture as long
as we do not harm others

Materially we are backwards, but in
spiritual matters - in terms of the development
of the mind - we are quite rich.

I am often asked about my Buddhist religion.
Most simply, it is the practice of compassion.

His holiness the fourteenth Dalai Lama
