Dalai Lama QuoteIf we human beings rely only on material development, we
can’t be sure of a positive outcome. Employing
technology motivated by anger and hatred is likely to be
destructive. It will only be beneficial if we seek the
welfare of all beings. Human beings are the only species
with the potential to destroy the world. Because of the
risks of unrestrained desire and greed we need to
cultivate contentment and simplicity.
