- His Holiness the Dalai Lama's opening address at the International Conference on Science, Spirituality and Education held at Namgyal Institute of Tibetology in Gangtok, Sikkim, India, on December 20th, 2010. For the first minute His Holiness speaks in Tibetan, the rest is in English language. (www.dalailama.com)
A little wait to start in English, brings a few surprising ideas, like saying that prayer is not enough because it doesn't replace action, declaring that secularism respect all religions, the need of scientific study of the inner emotions to balance outer developments, and reflecting that morals must not be based on religion while esential to eliminate corruption and provide trust among people seeking lasting peace. His Holiness is simply amazing.
Union of ancient Indian thoughts on mind and world scientists can find new effective ways to develop peace not only in an environment but also in the minds of human beings. This way may reduce huge amount of negative and destructive emotions that destroy our health and brain. This "Way" is practice of secular ethics proved by scientific experiments. Long live HH the Dalai lama.
To be spirtual/religious is to enter into a unspoken social contract with god and yourself and also with yourself and the rest of the world.To be spirtual/religious is to know the world con be moreperfect and to know you can forever changeinto that perfection it mean constantly trying to changeandevolve and in the process change the world for the better oneperson at a time.

I bet he is an atheist. I truly respect this guy for embracing science.
@idicula1979 (Cont) This can be a hard task it might even seem impossible at first glance,but true satisfaction can only come from fighting the good fight, and doing something bigger then yourself.
Your thinking of religion or specifically Judiac religions and even more specifically, fundamentalistic practices of them. Spirituality isn't religion though maybe used by religion and is extremely difficult to define as it would seem any definition would be very limited.
the dalai lama should not be allowed to talk on such issues for he is not a practical and rational man
