Dalai Lama’s Advice on Change

Inspired by An Open Heart, by the Dalai Lama (Little, Brown, 2001).

Many of us truly want to change our lives and ourselves, but it can be next to impossible to know how to start. Here is some of the most direct and helpful advice for manifesting true change that we have come across, from His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

Read the Dalai Lama’s three steps to true change, here:

1. Listen to experienced teachers.

2. Contemplate and process the teachings until you reach the point of profound conviction.

3. Meditate until the mind becomes completely absorbed by the subject matter.

Note that The Dalai Lama believes it is important to implement these three stages of practice consecutively.

Meditation enables us to concentrate and focus on our inner selves to make change possible and indeed embrace it.

What I don't see is why the world feels threatened by the peaceful and truthful people like Martin Luther King,Dalai Lama and Jesuswhose intentions are nothing but honest and noble.They clearly state what their intentions are and have no hidden agenda.What scares me more are people who have hidden agendas and whose intentions only serve themselves.
