Dalai Lama: We must as a law for the protection of our world

This planet is our only home. Environmental experts say that in the coming decades, global warming will reach a level that a lot of water go dry. So, ecology and the fight against global warming are very important. For example, my country, Tibet, is the ultimate source of water in Asia. The rivers, including Pakistan Indus, Ganges and Brahmaputra in India, China Yellow River and the Mekong, which flows from the Tibetan plateau. So we should pay more attention to the Tibetan ecology preservation. This is not only for the interest of 6 million Tibetans, but all the people in this region. In the past, when I was flying over Afghanistan, there have been clear signs that what was used to be lakes and rivers already dry. I feel that Tibet can also more quickly. Tibet covers political issues, so I have already retired. But in terms of Tibet’s ecology and rich culture, I am fully committed. We humans have these wonderful, brilliant minds. But we are also the biggest troublemakers in the world. Now we have to use your brain with compassion and a sense of concern. For this reason, one of my promotion obligations of the deepest human values. From birth we rely on others, especially our mothers. From there, every single existence depends entirely on a community because we are a social animal. Community, so we have to take care of the community, the source of our happiness. So now, in modern times, the concept of humanity is a community. East, west, north, south: all are interdependent. Modern economics has no national boundaries. Therefore, now we need a sense of unity of all 7 billion people. In the past, many problems were created because too much emphasis on our differences as nationalities and religions. Well, in this day and age, the thought is given. We must think of the humanity around the world. We need to hear scientists and specialists. Their voices and knowledge are very important. And religious people should not only pray more attention to scientists, pray, pray pay. In the old tradition of Nalanda Tibetan Buddhists who follow us, everything is examined and not accepted by faith alone. If we find some argument by contradiction in the words of Buddha, then we have the right to refuse them. Since childhood I was always involved in a lot of debate. Our thinking was not based on faith, but the reasoning. Buddha himself was not born in a palace, but under a tree. He attained enlightenment under a Bodhi tree. When he died, he was under a tree. One of the rules during the retreat of the monsoons is that we are not all green cut should. So, this shows that the Buddha himself paid attention to environmental issues. Hours, minutes and seconds: Time never stops. We are also part of nature. The past is important, but already over. The future is still in our hands, so we have to think ecology globally.
