* z( h/ Q' L: K3 s5 U. n% HI thought he would say:

Dalai Lama paused, smiled and looked me in the eyes ….
4 j6 _; c0 j+ Cwhich surprised me because I knew of the malice contained in my question.
' X6 P0 ~" P# m. h& \8 ]- BHe answered:
          “The best religion is the one that gets you closest to God.
             It is the one that makes you a better person.”

“Remember, the universe is the echo of our actions and our  thoughts.”
“The law of action and reaction is not exclusively for physics.  It is also of human relations.
