Don’t let anger overtake you: Dalai Lama in Jammu

Dalai Lama arrives in Jammu.

The Tibetan spiritual and temporal leader Dalai Lama on Saturday urged the people of Jammu and Kashmir not to let anger overtake them as it brings disaster.

The Dalai Lama, who arrived here on Saturday afternoon on a two-day visit, said in a message to the people of J&K who have been witnessing terrorism for the past 30 years: “We should always keep peace of mind and should not let anger overtake us. Anger always brings disaster and prevents us from using our intelligence effectively therefore preventing us from finding solutions to difficult situations”.

Expressing special greetings and prayers for the people of the state, the Dalai Lama said that “mentally, physically, emotionally, human beings are same everywhere. Everybody wants happiness, joyfulness; the foundation to this happiness is peace of mind”.
