Whenever I meet people,
I always feel i am meeting
another human being.
I never consider importance or
rank or position or faith,
different faith, or different
nationality. I simply look
at you as a human being,
another human being.
I myself also, when I meet
people, I never consider
I'm Tibetan, something different
from others, or other people.
Or I never consider I'm Buddhist,
simply just human being.
And I never sort of consider
when I sort of meet people,
I'm his Holiness 14th Dalai Lama.
I never consider, same human being.
I have some reason to stress that
humanity today is facing
certain problems which actually
are our own creation.
Not on the level
we are same human beings.
And deliberatetly, you see,
create some problem. No.
Secondary level of differences.
Different nationality, different
races, different color, different
family background, different faith.
Then, you see divisions come.
That creates we and they.
That's the basis of all these
man-made problems.
So we, all seven billion
human beings, have the common
responsibilty to create
happier humanity, peaceful humanity,
ultimately compassionate humanity.

Dalailama
