Great Regulars: Of the two, the mind exerts the greatest influence

on most of us. Unless we are gravely ill or deprived of basic necessities, our physical condition plays a secondary role in life.

Hence, we should devote our most serious efforts to bringing about mental peace.

From my own limited experience, I have found that the greatest degree of inner tranquillity comes from the development of love and compassion.

from Tenzin Gyatso: The Office of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama: Compassion For Our Fellow Human Beings Is The Key To Happiness
