Subject: RE: BS: Spiritualism as opposed to religion?
That's a very good message in that video, gnu. Spirituality can come naturally to people with or without belonging to a given religion, but there isn't necessarily any opposition between spirituality and religion. Religion, at its best, is very much in harmony with spirituality...while at its worst, it is utterly at odds with spirituality. Anyway, the Dalai Lama's answers were extremely wise and to the point.

The Truth is very simple. And very direct. A study of the world's major religions will reveal the same simple and direct truths at the heart of all of them, and the Dalai Lama summed those up in a few simple words.
