Being present: The Dalai Lama emphasizes the importance of living in the present moment and being fully engaged in the current experience. This can help us appreciate the beauty of life and avoid getting caught up in worries about the past or future.

Pursuing inner peace: The Dalai Lama teaches that true happiness comes from within, and that we should focus on cultivating inner peace through practices such as meditation, mindfulness, and self-reflection.
