Work hard and use minds to build compassion in society: Dalai Lama
Bhubaneswar, November 21: Tibetan Spiritual leader and Nobel Laureate Dalai Lama was hounoured with 10th ‘KISS Humanitarian Award’ during the event held at Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences. Advising youths, Dalai Lama said to work hard and use the minds to build compassion in the society.
Today the modern world lacks the moral principles and knowledge about how to tackle the emotions, said Dalai Lama while addressing the event. He wished the youths to work hard with self-confidence to get success in life and also to pay more attention to the ancient Indian knowledge and use their mind to build compassion in the society, which is one of the effective ways to remove corruption from the society.
“I am very happy to be here. You are the generation of the 21st century. You have lot of opportunities and responsibilities. Leave laziness and strive for success. You will get success if you work hard with self-confidence,” advised the 82-year-old Dalai Lama.
He also appreciated the selfless deeds and contribution of Dr Achyuta Samanta for the education of the tribal children and betterment of the society.
The Dalai Lama was the first Nobel Prize Awardee to get the KISS Humanitarian Award. He was conferred with the award in the presence of many dignitaries and 27,000 tribal children of KISS. The KISS Humanitarian Award was instituted in 2008 to honour and recognise individuals with the exceptionally high contribution to the society in various fields related to social issues.
