"Aucun confort extérieur ne peut nous apporter la paix si notre esprit est submergé par la peur, le stress ou le doute. Je souligne régulièrement l’importance d’entraîner l’esprit par l’éducation, la réflexion et la pratique. Au lieu d’être victimes d’émotions perturbatrices comme la colère ou la jalousie, nous devons cultiver et enrichir en nous la bonté du cœur, la bienveillance et la patience. Nous pourrons ainsi réduire les émotions perturbatrices telles que la colère, la haine et la jalousie."

"No amount of external comfort can bring us peace if our minds are overwhelmed by fear, stress, or doubt. I regularly emphasize the importance of training the mind through education, reflection, and practice. Instead of being victims of disturbing emotions such as anger or jealousy, we must cultivate and nurture warm-heartedness, loving-kindness, and patience within ourselves. In doing so, we can reduce disturbing emotions such as anger, hatred, and jealousy." - H.H. Dalai Lama 2026
