Chinese People Themselves, They Really Want Change.

All Good Qualities Must Be Sown And Cultivated. We Can’t Expect To Change Overnight From An Ordinary Person Into One With High Realizations.

Like The Lotus Which Thrives In Mud, The Potential For Realization Grows In The Rich Soil Of Everyday Life

In Spiritual Growth, It Is Important To Avoid Imbalances Between Academic Or Intellectual Learning And Practical Implementation. Otherwise There Is A Danger That Too Much Intellectualiza Tion Will Kill The More Contemplative Practices And Too Much Emphasis On Practical Implementation Without Study Will Kill The Understanding. There Has Got To Be A Balance.

China Has To Go Along With World Trends. That's Democracy, Liberty, Individual Freedom. China Sooner Or Later Has To Go That Way. It Cannot Go Backward.

People Think Of Animals As If They Were Vegetables, And That Is Not Right. We Have To Change The Way People Think About Animals. I Encourage The Tibetan People And All People To Move Toward A Vegetarian Diet That Doesn’t Cause Suffering.
