"When we consider that everything we experience results from a complex interplay of causes and conditions, we find that there is no single thing to desire or resent and it is more difficult for the afflictions of attachment and anger to arise.  In this way the view of interdependence makes our minds more relaxed and open."

The Dalai Lama
