The Bahai Faith concentrates on the things that the many faiths
have in common, and believe they are all essentially united.
Just pronounce the name of the great spirit differently.
When you begin to concentrate on the differences, it can
escalate into hatred, war and intolerance. It is like the
3 blind men describing an elephant, when we humans attempt
to define the divine--we all have some of the picture, but
none of us are capable of understanding the whole deal-
it is too big for us to understand. Too bad we get caught up
in arguing over the differnces instead of accepting the
similarities. One Buddhist practice is to feel love for those
who you understand and then try to express that same love for
those more difficult -- those who are unknown , or who you do
not understand, or those who might repel you such as ones
having different beliefs, etc. I am glad it seemws to be a mis-quote
becaus i cannot see the Dalai Lama wishing to douse any one or
any thing...
