Agree that this doesn't sound like the Dalai Lama. Did some research & it does seem as though it's from Life's Little Instruction Book. All the same, it's good stuff! Great list to remember.

All the stress the mankind suffers from comes from carrying the sense of doership and dropping doership is all is needed for freedom from stress and its related ill effects which range from minor irritations to major violence in individual and society as a whole. Dropping doership intellectually may be easy but at experiential level can take even lifetime but its worth it. I am now eagerly looking forward to new things on this Blog, my soul needs constant nourishment .

It is all too often that spirituality is far from pragmatism, since many spiritual leaders live a very niche life, apart from the stresses of work, life, and family. Although the advice here is more general than specific, it is still applicable to modern living. One nit to pick - I find it difficult to believe that the Dalai Lama, of Tibetan Buddhist tradition, would be writing anything about the Zen Buddhist tradition. While these traditions are mostly compatible, there are some differences in expression. Could you please provide a citation to the original source of this material? Also, thank you for mindful blog. Keep up the good work. Thanks, Ed This is a lovely list, at the same time both meaningful and practical.

In fact I'd say they're rife with counter productive ideas if you are intending to live a life of non-attachment and a realization of sunyata and emptiness of individual existence.
