SIMPLE PHILOSOPHY

"This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness."
—Dalai Lama XIV, The Dalai Lama

Religion, for many, is wrapped in traditions, texts, and rituals. The Dalai Lama, however, offers a simpler vision—one where kindness is the true measure of our spiritual practice. The real temple is not built of stone but exists within our own hearts.

We often seek wisdom in books or look to religious institutions for guidance, yet the most profound truths are found in our daily interactions. Spirituality is not about what we believe, but how we live. Each time we offer compassion, choose patience over frustration, or extend a hand to someone in need, we step into this inner temple.

Take a moment to consider: Where can you bring more kindness into your life today? A word of encouragement, a moment of patience, a gesture of generosity—these are not small things. They are the foundation of a deeply lived philosophy, one that has the power to transform not only our own hearts but the world around us.
