Some great comments from the Dalai Lama in Melbourne yesterday; far too many gems to cover here. One thing he kept coming back to though was that we can’t change the external without first changing the internal. We can’t solve world conflict until we deal with our own internal conflict. We can’t fix the environment until we fix our own internal environment. Clearing the garbage out of our minds (my words, not his) and taking responsibility for our own throughts and perceptions of ourselves and others.

Summed up perhaps in a couple of sentences:

What is it you want to create?
What kind of world do you want to see; what kind of world do you want your children to inherit?
And most importantly; what are YOU going to do to help create it?
