    i have always been amazed here is the spiritual leader of buddhism discussing openly with any and all people, ordinary people, openly answering any and all questions on the internet...when was the last time you've seen that from any other major religion. what a blessing this is and what an example for all others of knowledge...thank you and bless you for sharing your enlightenment you truly practice what you teach.

    It's nice to see someone so completely unconcerned with style. It is so foreign to our society. Style and flare are driven home to us daily. This man is so true. He is here for others only. If he was fluent in English, he would almost too much for us to handle! lol. He is an amazing person.

    I got to see him in person and listen to his lecture this year, and it was amazing. This video is awesome also, but theirs nothing like being in his presence, Also he's got a great sense of humor that really lightens the heavy messages that he aims at within his lecture. i don't understand why there would even be a single negative remark about his speeches.

    The call to teach methods of mind observation and stimulating compassion in education is essential. An increasing number of scientific studies show the positive effects of mindfulness to happiness and productivity, and also demonstrate how mindfulness meditation actually changes the physical structure of the brain. If these techniques are given equal importance and time to physical training in schools all over the world, not only humans, but the entire world will benefit immensely.

    Religion isn't going away any time soon.
    Certainly it is a very important part of people's lives nowadays.
    Religion does talk about enlightenment a lot...
    And I think it is the job of any enlightened person to seek harmony between all of the religions, so that we can stop these stupid religious conflicts, arguments and wars.
    Don't you think so?

    @alexvannes The honorific title and style of address of "Holiness" is given to religious leaders of very high stature including Christian ones such as the Roman Catholic Pope and the Patriarchs of the Eastern Orthodox churches. On an absolute level no one is in a position to say or know what or who, if anything or anyone, is holy. To you Jesus Christ may be holy but not to everyone.

    What worries me is this guy is one of the Dean's at one of the most prestigious Universities in the world, and yet after his initial introduction he talks solidly for eight minutes. Notice the way he stands bodily in the Dalai Lama's space and motions @0:30 too? What does his station and his religion mean when he barely knows basic good grace?

    Dalai Lama sounds nice and I would have liked him if he didn't show prejudice and hate toward Muslims and others on many occasions. I'm an atheist myself but any time I hear anyone who generalizes whole groups of humans and show hate, to me they have not reached the highest level of wisdom.

May this occur instantaneously. May all demonic forces preventing this prayer's successful response be pulverized by the Supreme Vajra formed from 101 precious substances. Mangalam

    Refuting the believe that the Dalai Lama is a sincere and pure buddhist practitioner and teacher by using his words and comparing it with Buddhas wisdom:
    ANGER SOLVES NOTHING
    We must admit that sometimes the Dalai Lama tells the truth. Some days ago a friend of mine showed me a magazine with a Dalai Lama interview, in it the Dalai Lama says the following and I quote:
    There is no much sense in me speaking about myself. It is better that other people do it. What I know is that when I was a child I was a character, but I have changed. Nowadays, I get angry from time to time, like for example not long ago in Madrid. It was in the hotel waiting for my luggage to arrive to the hotel, and it was not arriving. No one knew anything about it. How silly! It should be somewhere. So I lost my temper. But it was for a good reason: in my luggage there was my Tibetan medicine and I have stomach pain, so I need it. In general I think that emotions and intelligence come together. The emotions are part of our life but intelligence must control them. In my case, when emotions come out my wisdom and experience help me. However sometimes they appear in my dreams. I see myself fighting with people. I hold something in my hand and I try to hit them, but then I remember in my dream that I am a monk and I should not fight. Sometimes I also dream with women. Yes attractive women… The Dalai Lama laughs and speaks in Tibetan that Thetong translates: . The Dalai Lama keeps laughing:

With some wisdom and logic if possible. I based my essay on Dalai Lama's own words and BUddhas wisdom. What is your argument to refute what I am saying other than, because is the Dalai Lama and he is the truth. And also you do not know my intention so better stick to the truth or untruth of what I am saying.

    • @cancet7
      @cancet7 10 років тому

      James Beveridge I will try with this one then: LOGICAL REASONING
      SYLLOGISM: Whenever we realize something by means of a conclusive reason we use a special form of logical reasoning known as a syllogism. A syllogism has three parts: subject, predicate and a reason. The combination of the subject and the predicate is called “probandum” in the example below the “probandum” is “The Dalai Lama is not an emanation of Avalokiteshvara” and is this we realize in dependence upon the reason. A conclusive reason is a reason that is able to establish a probandum incontrovertibly.
      The definition of a conclusive reason is a reason that is qualified by the three modes. The three modes are: the property of the subject, the forward pervasion, and the reverse pervasion; and any conclusive reason will be qualified by all three. We can understand these three modes by considering the syllogism stated below:
      The Dalai Lama is not an emanation of Avalokiteshvara because all his actions do not correspond with that of the Buddha of compassion.
      The first mode is called the property of the subject because for a reason to be conclusive it must apply to, or be a property of the subject. In this case, the reason is a property of the subject because all his actions do not correspond with that of the Buddha of compassion (reason) refers to The Dalai Lama (subject). The second mode is called the “forward pervasion “because for a reason to be a conclusive reason it must be pervaded by the predicate. In this case, the reason is qualified by the second mode because if anyone actions do not correspond with that of the Buddha of compassion (reason) that person cannot be an emanation of Avalokiteshvara (predicate). The third mode is called the “reverse pervasion” because if the predicate does not apply the reason must also not apply. In this case, the reason is qualified by the third mode because if anyone were an emanation of Avalokiteshvara all his actions would correspond with that of the Buddha of compassion. If a reason lacks any of the three modes it is not a conclusive reason.
      In this case the reason is qualified by the three modes and we can say that it is a syllogism based on a conclusive reason. Maybe sometimes we are not sure about one of the parts of the syllogism, then we have to state another one per example maybe you are not sure about the reason established here ,that is, all his actions does not correspond with that of the Buddha of compassion. Then we can establish another syllogism to prove the reason:
      All Dalai Lama actions do not correspond with that of the Buddha of compassion because he did not condemn Iraq war; he has brought enormous suffering to many people by banning Dorje Shugden practice and he does not recognize his Spiritual Guide.
      Recall that even Avalokiteshvara is an enlightened being he has his Spiritual Guide at his crown (Buddha Amithaba) out of respect.
      For the rest you already know how to check if this is a syllogism based on a valid reason.

    Nostradamus calls these 2 destinies: (1)Mars and (2)The Scepter in quatrain 24 of century 6. Thus Hitler is not the author of WWII,the Gods are.
