The Dalai Lama is just a temporal leader of Tibet.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I also saw the Dalai Lama a few times.
When His Holiness won the Nobel Peace Prize, there was a quantum leap. He is not seen as solely a Tibetan anymore; he belongs to the world.
If some people have the belief or view that the Dalai Lama has some miracle power, that's totally nonsense. I am just one human being.
You don't have to be the Dalai Lama to tell people that life's about change.
What the Dalai Lama had to resolve was whether to stay in Tibet or leave. He wanted to stay, but staying would have meant the total destruction of Tibet, because he would have died and that would have ripped the heart out of his people.
The Tibetan people will need to determine who the next reincarnation of the Dalai Lama is.
I became the Dalai Lama not on a volunteer basis.
If some people have the belief or view that the Dalai Lama has some miracle power, that's totally nonsense.
Maybe the Dalai Lama is the only person who is totally honest, and even with him, he's skillful not to hurt anybody. He's skillful.
The Dalai Lama's entire being is about peace and harmony, forgiveness and self-discipline. Those are qualities to be admired. I am really looking forward to meeting His Holiness.
