Chain letter: A message from the Dalai Lama

Pass it on..
This is what The Dalai Lama has to say on the millennium, all it takes is a few seconds to read and think about. Do not keep this message. The mantra must leave your hands within 96 hours. You will get a very pleasant surprise. This is true even if you are not superstitious. Instructions for Life in the new millennium from the Dalai Lama:

Take into account that great love and great achievements involve great risk.
When you lose, don't lose the lesson.
Follow the three Rs:
1. Respect for self
2. Respect for others and
3. Responsibility for all your actions.
Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck.
Learn the rules so you know how to break them properly.
Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.
When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.
Spend some time alone every day.
Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values.
Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.
Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back,you'll be able to enjoy it a second time.
A loving atmosphere in your home is the foundation for your life.
In disagreements with loved ones, deal only with the current situation.Don't bring up the past.
Share your knowledge. It's a way to achieve immortality.
Be gentle with the earth.
Once a year, go someplace you've never been before.
Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other.
Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.
Approach love and cooking with reckless abandon.

Do not keep this message. The mantra must leave your hands within 96 hours. You will get a very pleasant surprise (this is true even if you are notsuperstitious) [and it may not be true even if you are] if you send it to:
0-4 people.... Your life will improve slightly.
5-9 people.... Your life will improve to your liking.
9-14 people.... You will have at least 5 surprises in the next 3 weeks.
15 people and above.... Your life will improve drastically and everything you ever dreamed of will begin to take shape.

This is an abbreviated form of the above letter from the Dalai Lama, which you know it's really from the Dalai Lama because he has nothing better to do than write chain letters:

When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it, stupid.
Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values. That way your values will become stifiling, and cease to reflect how you've changed as a person. Subsequently you will cease to act according to them, and can do whatever you want.
Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back,you'll be able to enjoy it a second time. Don't do it because it's the right thing to do. And this really helps you to do that, too, as good is such a relative term, and can refer to anything from feeding starving children to beating up old ladies.
A loving atmosphere in your home is the foundation for really cheesy made for TV dramas.
In disagreements with loved ones, deal only with the current situation. Don't bring up the past. Bring up how UGLY they are instead.
Share your knowledge. It's a way to achieve immortality. Actually it's just a way of helping stupid people out, so I like to lie and say it will help you achieve immorality, becaues no one would do it if I told them the truth. That whole "immortality in other people's hearts" is crap.
Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it. On second though, don't. That'll just make you really bitter.

Do not keep this message. The mantra (this is not an e-mail, or even a chain letter converted into a web page, it's a manatra) must leave your hands within 96 hours. You will get a very pleasant surprise. No, not really. This is just a gimick to get you to pass this along, because no body responds to "please" anymore. These are the great FREE GIFTS you will recieve when you pass this along:
0-4 people.... Your life will improve slightly, but you'll still be ugly.
5-9 people.... Your life will improve to your liking.
9-14 people.... You will have at least 5 surprises in the next 3 weeks.
15 people and above.... Your life will improve drastically and everything you ever dreamed of will begin to take shape.

So you see, the secret to everlasting happiness is NOT in being a good person, but in passing this letter along.
