“I aspire to contribute to world peace through thought, word, and deed,” His Holiness said. “On the occasion of my birthday, if you, my friends, can guard your minds and lead good-natured lives you will be joyful at heart and as a result will be able, directly and indirectly, to help everyone around you.”
His Holiness also shared his daily prayer, a passage from Shantideva’s text, Engaging in the Bodhisattva Deeds:
Like the earth and other great elements,
And like space itself,
May I remain forever
To support the lives of boundless beings
