Love and compassion 愛と思いやり

"Love and compassion are qualities that human beings require just to live together."
(From His Holiness the Dalai Lama's tweet on October 21, 2013)
Cf. https://twitter.com/DalaiLama/status/392220123718635520

愛と思いやりは、人間がただ一緒に暮らすために必要な資質です。(超訳)

We aren't self-sufficient, so we can't live alone. Our survival and future depends on others, so cooperation based on love and compassion is vital. (My commentary)
Cf. http://www.slideshare.net/compassion5151/wisdom-20948408

私たちは自給自足できませんので、一人で生きることはできません。私たちの生存と将来は他に依存していますので、愛と思いやりに基づく協調が不可欠なのです。(解説)
