Why doesn't the pope convert to Calvinism? Why doesn't the Dalai Lama, convert to Christianity, why doesn't Billy Graham convert to Islam, Why doesn't the Ayatollahs convert to Buddhism, Why isn't Buddhism swept away? Religious leaders know that all religions are equal; they know that no one of them has the monopoly to the knowledge of God. They know that each religion is trying to find the hidden God and that no one religion can claim to have found him beyond doubt. That's why they remain where they are and respect each other.

About This Quote

The Dalai Lama is a Buddhist spiritual leader who lives in Tibet. He is well-known for his non-violent approach to seeking religious and political freedom for the people of Tibet. He recently said: "To me, religion is like a pair of glasses. Religion is like a pair of glasses. Your vision without glasses is very blurred and far; with glasses you can see much clearer." The Dalai Lama has asked that we all be open to the teachings of other religions and that we respect the beliefs and practices of others.
