Poetic PEACE Pilgrimage – Year 2 – Day 202 – 7/6/2015

Named Joyful July 6  Dalai Lama Birthday

In his own words…

Every day, think as you wake up, today I am fortunate to be alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others; to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings. I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can.

~

May we all breathe his Blessing of Peace deeply through our one heart.

His parting words leaving Portland:

 “I’m always mentioning that mentally, emotionally and physically we are the same human being. So the potential which I have and that I use – you also have that same potential. You must realize that potential and utilize that potential as much as you can. Then you will be a happy person and live a meaningful life.”
