Leo TolstoyThere are many faiths, but the spirit is one – in me, and in you, and in him. So that if everyone believes himself, all will be united; everyone be himself and all will be as one.
About This Quote
The Dalai Lama did not know how to read or write, but he had a mind that was open to all ideas. The Dalai Lama was a man of peace and a man of compassion, and he dedicated the majority of his time to helping those who needed it. He devoted his intellectual energies to religion, philosophy, and ethics. Even though he did not know how to read or write, the Dalai Lama would listen intently as others explained their religious beliefs. He would take those beliefs seriously, but he would never take those beliefs as his own.
