On this day, in 1940, Tenzin Gyatso was enthroned as the 14th, and current, Dalai Lama. I thought we could all use some reminders about inner peace and contentment.
There have been 14 Dalai Lamas, which are considered as reincarnations of the original.
In order to be happy we must first possess inner contentment; and inner contentment doesn’t come from having all we want; but rather from wanting and appreciating all we have. – Tenzin Gyatso, 14th Dalai Lama
