HH the Dalai Lama - Inner Development/Inner Progress ...

“Inner development comes step by step. You may think “Today my inner calmness, my mental peace is very small,” but still, if you compare, if you look five, ten or fifteen years back, and think, “What was my way of thinking then? How much inner peace did I have then and what is it today?” – comparing it with what it was then, you can realize that there is some progress, there is some value. This is how you should compare – not with today’s feeling and yesterday’s feeling, or last week or last month, even not last year, but five years ago. Then you can realize what improvement has occurred internally. Progress comes by maintaining constant effort in daily practice.”
