“If you can, help others; if you cannot do that, at least do not harm them.”
— Dalai Lama
Simplified Meaning:
The idea here is that we should try to help people whenever we can. For example, if a friend is having a hard time, you might offer them a shoulder to cry on or help them solve their problem. But sometimes, we might not be able to help. In those cases, it's important not to make things worse for them. Imagine seeing someone struggling to carry heavy bags; if you can't help them carry the bags, at least don't trip them or make it harder for them. It's about being kind and thoughtful, even if you can't directly assist someone. By following this advice, we contribute to a more caring and supportive community.
