! Y4 {. U6 Z' IIn a round table discussion about religion and freedom in which Dalai Lama
) d! ]% i; i' y/ d. A" Sand myself were participating at recess I maliciously,  and also with interest,
# o4 C2 t7 _/ L0 dasked him: “Your holiness, what is the best religion?”
2 ^9 f  W# h& y% G
3 X: [/ V. u9 U: M0 _% jI thought he would say:
“The Tibetan Buddhism” or “The oriental religions, much older than Chritianity”

Dalai Lama paused, smiled and looked me in the eyes ….
: F3 t2 z/ d1 g( N' P: S5 Nwhich surprised me because I knew of the malice contained in my question.
He answered:
          “The best religion is the one that gets you closest to God.
             It is the one that makes you a better person.”

To get out of my embarassment with such a wise answer, I asked:
4 k& O1 [3 P" H# m" \“What is it that makes me better?”

He responded:
; ?& S* |5 k% J! b6 e& R“Whatever makes you
     more compassionate,
2 Y7 M  ^( K5 n4 u$ a; B     more sensible,
     more detached,

     more responsible,
* R$ {0 o* h/ w* m( J9 y8 _* ]     more ethical.”       

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

5 w& ^; g( M1 FI was silent for a moment, marvelling and even today thinking of his wise and irrefutable response:

"I am not interested, my friend, about your religión or if you are religious or not.

1 _" i! a6 w; m: Q! p“What really is important to me is your behaviour in front of your peers, family, work,    community, and in front of the world.”
