Dalai Lama Urges Hope for the Future
SEATTLE (AP) — Still avoiding direct discussion of the situation in Tibet, the Dalai Lama on Saturday urged people to have hope for the future and to look past a century of bloodshed and toward a period of dialogue.
The spiritual leader of Tibet delivered his keynote speech to more than 50,000 people during the second day of a five-day conference on compassion.
This century has become one of bloodshed, the Dalai Lama said.
"I think it is our own responsibility to make this century be century of dialogue," he said. He also called for world disarmament, saying "constant war" is outdated.
"constant war is outdated" what a great quote...
