"The need for love lies at the very foundation of human existence. It results from the profound interdependence we all share with one another. However capable and skillful an individual may be, left alone, he or she will not survive. However vigorous and independent one may feel during the most prosperous periods of life, when one is sick or very young or very old, one must depend on the support of others. Independence, of course, is a fundamental law of nature. Not only higher forms of life but also many of the smallest insects are social beings who, without any religion, law or education, survive by mutual cooperation based on an innate recognition of their interconnectedness. The most subtle level of material phenomena is also governed by interdependence. All phenomena from the planet we inhabit to the oceans, clouds, forests and flowers that surround us, arise in dependence upon subtle patterns of energy. Without their proper interaction, they dissolve and decay. "

AFTER READING THAT DAHLAI'S STATEMENT, HOW DO YOU FEEL A CREATOR WOULD OR WOULDN'T FIT INTO A WORLD LIKE THE ONE PAINTED BY THE DAHLAI.

WELL INSPECTOR, ANYTHING GOOD AND WORTH WHILE TAKES TIME.

PATRICK M ` WHAT I LIKE MOST ABOUT THE DAHLAI'S MESSAGE'S IS THAT IT REQUIRES NO FAITH TO BELIEVE WHAT HE IS TELLING YOU. HE IS ONLY POINTING OUT WHAT IS IN FRONT OF YOUR EYES EVERYDAY TO MEASURE AND UNDERSTAND FOR YOURSELF I THE NATURAL WORLD. HIS MESSAGE ASKS NOTHING IN RETURN, UNLIKE THE MAJORITY OF RELIGIONS TODAY, PUTTING YOUR DESTINY SQUARE ON YOUR OWN SHOULDERS, RIGHT WHERE IT BELONGS. TRUTH IS TRUTH AND THERE IS NOTHING DEVINE ABOUT THAT, OTHER THAN THE ARCHETYPE THRUST UPON IT BY HUMANITY.

A creator doesn't fit into it, as far as I'm concerned. Animals that reproduce sexually must remain in close proximity to one another; otherwise, the species will not survive. Animals that reproduce asexually are not social animals and do not need that same proximity. The "fundamental law of nature" of which the Dalai Lama speaks is biological, not divine. It is not the need for love that "lies at the very foundation of human existence", it is the need to survive.

I am a zen Buddhist, and I personally don't think it matters in my life whether there is a God or not. I will still live the same way and all my ideas are just opinion. All he is saying is that everything is interconnected, which is true.
Watch I "heart" Huckabees. I think you'll like it. It's a very interconnected kind of movie.
Namaste.

I like the Dalai Lama. A spiritual man with words of common sense.

Coincidence? I think not... The Divine Revelation that God Created us to be like him is proved in this statement... We all live to love. God is Love that is why we were made. (and the cycle begins again):-(
