; U0 S" n0 A5 M( PIn a round table discussion about religion and freedom in which Dalai Lama
" Z0 z5 ?0 K- s0 {% R# d( Eand myself were participating at recess I maliciously,  and also with interest,
+ Y( X2 @; ^6 p# [/ {asked him: “Your holiness, what is the best religion?”

' H: C( F# V6 @  S( N6 YI thought he would say:
& r$ x3 {. H. M4 ?! x“The Tibetan Buddhism” or “The oriental religions, much older than Chritianity”

( M4 r1 s$ G# y$ k2 F Dalai Lama paused, smiled and looked me in the eyes ….
which surprised me because I knew of the malice contained in my question.
He answered:
  S2 A/ N' Q; o( E3 ~          “The best religion is the one that gets you closest to God.
             It is the one that makes you a better person.”
. G7 S: B5 x& J. w, m2 l: R/ T
To get out of my embarassment with such a wise answer, I asked:
“What is it that makes me better?”

He responded:
“Whatever makes you
     more compassionate,
     more sensible,
     more detached,
     more loving,
     more humanitarian,
2 h0 U& O5 r1 [     more responsible,

“The religion that will do that for you is the best religion”

I was silent for a moment, marvelling and even today thinking of his wise and irrefutable response:

“What really is important to me is your behaviour in front of your peers, family, work,    community, and in front of the world.”
