Salvijus

Celibacy if combined with proper spiritual path and meditation can be of tremendous boost. It helps to transend all the animal instincts of lust and anger and greed etc. And it makes the mind and spirit much more pure. A celebacy without proper spiritual practice can indeed be dangerous and lead to various perversions. If u wonder on which side dala lama falls i recommend u do more research in amount of sadhana and spiritual practice the guy has done. This forum all combined wouldn't even amount to 1% of his spiritual practice done

? impressive imagination skills But why would u even believe such a randomly created out of nowhere narrative... you might as well sayed, they're all payed actors.

I doubt anyone here is a dalai lama fan. I personally never watched any of his videos until now. I got interested in checking his videos after the media exploaded. The guy clearly has one of the purest hearts on the planet.

Chosing love over fear. The ancient game of salvation. Blessed be those who chose to walk this path. For indeed it is rare to find a liberated soul. If your soul seeks to find support grace and inspiration on the journey through the valley of death. I suggest u look into the phenomena called "the way of mastery". May the Light be with you Amen

@Jwayne true. He did make the boy uncomfortable towards the end. But within appropriate limits. It's called teasing. If u do it while having total care for the other. There's nothing wrong with it. And like ive sayed many times already. It's not like he was doing it with a hard dick in his pants saliva dripping in his mouth. So the "pervert" nerrative doesn't hold really. You have to look for a different interpretation then.

@Jwayne he could've played it in a milion different ways. True. But the one he chose looked good in his mind probably bc he doesn't interpret every little thing as a human rights abuse. And we could debate that he didn't do anything wrong really if he maintained total sense of care for the boy's wellbeing. It would've been inappropriate only if it was an act of lust and a desire to use him for his pleasures against his will.

I would question whether the boy really felt any trauma. If dalai lama was genuinely full of respect for him. He must have left the stage feeling elated and blessed. That's usually the fruit of genuine relationship based on genuine respect. But im not gonna say that's what happened. That's just how i tend to see things through my yellow glasses. Of course the drama caused by the media will probably have a not so pleasent consiquences.

I think he simply assumed it as a harmless joke. He was not even aware people will interpret it in such a bad way. It happens to people who are very innoscent. Like if a saint walks naked and smiles at people. For a saint it could be just a happy day. For americans it's a huge offence.

Yes there is. And there is also genuine relationships based in genuine love.

The question boils down to. Did dalai lama cause suffering to the boy or did he show his love and compassion to him? What was the fruit of his actions? Well of course the media blew up. But leaving that aside. How did the kid felt at the end? Did he felt traumatized, disrespected, abused etc. Or it was all just laughter, playfulness and mutual continual respect and love for each other till the very end.

"Anything that u do with total inclusiveness, respect, love, compassion is good in my world. It will bear the fruit of joy and happyness. And everything that u do with no regards to others, out of restlesness, out of compulsiveness, out of selfishisness is not cool. It will cause u and others suffering." U disagree with this? That's cool i wasn't aware you're trying to make this point in your previous posts.

@Jwayne we are spinning in circles again. I already adressed it. There's nothing i can say to make my perseption more valid then yours. It's just blue glasses world vs red glasses world stuff.

As if there's only one possible interpretation to this. I already showed how it can be interpreted as an harmless act. Refusal to acknowledge it is the only thing that is the problem here.

Im not blaming anyone. Im saying there's a big difference between what uncontrolable lust is doing and what genuine compassion does even if the actions seem to be similar on the surface. This is like the 10th time im repeating myself but you're refusing to acknowledge this simple truth.

It's impossible to cause suffering to others and be at peace. It's the law of god

The point is u can do all those things as harmless playful act of love as well. U have to look beyond the surface and feel the energy of the whole thing. But the results of what we feel will vary from person to person depending on how clean our perseption is. Someone is wearing blue glasses and says dalai lama is blue another one is wearing red glasses and says dalai lama is red. Both are honest about what they see. But only the one who has no ego can see the reality as it really is. Arguing whether the reality is blue or red is pointless. Better just keep purifying your perception.

It's easy to smell a predetor out. It's very manipulative and full of fake compassion and kindness and they are driven by lust all the time. Genuine love and compassion has a dramaticly different taste and feeling to it.

Okey that's the fair point. I can only share what i see. Each person will interpret and see the situation according to their own conditioning and what not. "We don't see the world as it is, we see the world as we are" I personally don't sense any hornyness hot arousal energy in him. But i do sense tremendous love oozing out of him. Now that's very subjective. There's nothing i can say to prove that to others. So i guess we reached a dead end of the conversation ?

@Jwayne you're not reading anything i wrote. There's a difference between doing something out of lust and doing something out of playfulness. One is very manipulative to satisfy your own desires with no regards to how other one is feeling. Another is pure compassion and love where another person's wellbeing is taken fully important.

@Jwayne the difference between a predetor and dalai lama is that one is doing it out of lust and uncontrollable hornyness. Another is doing it out of playfulness and genuine compassion. He kept the feelings and wellbeing of a child very important to him. Showing him respect and inclusiveness after every teasing act. In fact he descided to tease a kid only when he sensed he could take the joke in the first place. Whereas a predetor would simply use force to satisfy his desires with no regards to how another one is feeling. And on top of it dalai lama is not showing any arousal energy behind his actions, for him it's all just a joke. Whereas a predetor would get all horny and hot. With dripping saliva in his mouth

There's no doubt the tongue thing made the kid uncomfortable. But i think making him a bit uncomfortable was the whole point of the joke in the first place. He just wasn't aware how badly the joke will be interpreted in the west. What really matters is that after every teasing play that dalai lama makes he again shows only love and compassion and respect for the child.

All i see is pure love and inclusiveness The act of putting foreheads together is really beautiful to me and the kid is clearly responding positivly to dalai lamas kindness. The rest of it is just dalai lama being goofy.

Making an inappropriate joke blown to an extreme proportions ? Dalai lama is so innoscent of his behavior he wasn't even aware how badly westerners will interpret it lol.

Yea that sounds familiar. I would recommend instead of "trying" to come up with a response, simply observe your mind and watch how the response comes automatically.
