- O9 g$ Z3 e7 e! |/ oIn a round table discussion about religion and freedom in which Dalai Lama
and myself were participating at recess I maliciously,  and also with interest,
- f+ [" _# `7 Q/ ~" _& e( Y. q" rasked him: “Your holiness, what is the best religion?”
( l: Y/ J; a3 i
I thought he would say:
3 [2 [: e2 }) g3 c  t“The Tibetan Buddhism” or “The oriental religions, much older than Chritianity”

9 j/ }3 ]3 U" Z) f Dalai Lama paused, smiled and looked me in the eyes ….
+ Y4 D% m) `% U" E5 Cwhich surprised me because I knew of the malice contained in my question.
$ T# s$ k- Q1 C- KHe answered:
          “The best religion is the one that gets you closest to God.
             It is the one that makes you a better person.”
& C% L3 k& g' L  d1 T
To get out of my embarassment with such a wise answer, I asked:
“What is it that makes me better?”
! t4 p# }9 ~4 G+ a
He responded:
4 Y# w7 L+ R) [8 F“Whatever makes you
     more compassionate,
     more sensible,
     more detached,

. N) ]2 G, Q# K/ Y& ?
“The religion that will do that for you is the best religion”
$ \5 m6 d$ P0 K- C1 |
I was silent for a moment, marvelling and even today thinking of his wise and irrefutable response:
$ N5 J! x4 g! W, i8 S" ]
"I am not interested, my friend, about your religión or if you are religious or not.

. R1 j7 X& d2 ~1 M“What really is important to me is your behaviour in front of your peers, family, work,    community, and in front of the world.”

Finally he said:
