8 E0 E! {/ L1 h0 e3 q" gand myself were participating at recess I maliciously,  and also with interest,
' F" u" L( G4 K0 ]+ `2 Jasked him: “Your holiness, what is the best religion?”

I thought he would say:
, n0 [8 O5 I* x* ?& p! S3 q“The Tibetan Buddhism” or “The oriental religions, much older than Chritianity”

Dalai Lama paused, smiled and looked me in the eyes ….
7 C! C5 f- L0 \which 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:

He responded:
“Whatever makes you

“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.
