ダライラマ、パリ同時多発テロでコメント「神に祈っても問題は解決しない」
Posted 5 days ago, by Norman Rose
先週末、フランスのパリで発生した同時多発テロは、各方面に大きな衝撃を与える状況となっているが、仏教の宗教指導者となるダライ・ラマ(Dalai Lama)がこの問題に対して、非常に現実的なコメントを行ったことが関心を集めている。
People want to lead a peaceful lives. The terrorists are short-sighted, and this is one of the causes of rampant suicide bombings. We cannot solve this problem only through prayers. I am a Buddhist and I believe in praying. But humans have created this problem, and now we are asking God to solve it. It is illogical. God would say, solve it yourself because you created it in the first place.
We need a systematic approach to foster humanistic values, of oneness and harmony. If we start doing it now, there is hope that this century will be different from the previous one. It is in everybody's interest. So let us work for peace within our families and society, and not expect help from God, Buddha or the governments.
