Dalai Lama on inclusivism ~ 2 Dalai Lama on inclusivism uThere are some commonalities between all of the major religions yAll the major world religions are directed at the achievement of permanent human happiness. yAll teach that religious persons must strive to become better human beings (536).

Dalai Lama on inclusivism ~ 3 Dalai Lama on inclusivism uBut there are also differences yJudaism, Christianity, & Islam hold that God is the creator of all yBuddhism - the universe does not have a first cause; hence it does not have a creator; and there is no permanent, primordially pure being (536). yBut the purpose of these doctrines is to become better human persons and to find happiness. This is shared by Christianity & Buddhism.

Dalai Lama on inclusivism ~ 4 Dalai Lama on inclusivism uThe variety of world religions is good; there is beauty in variety. u Should we try to convert members of other religons? yNo. We should advise them to follow their own paths as sincerely & truthfully as possible (537). uHe closes with a touch of exclusivism: liberation in the Buddhist sense is explained only in the Buddhist scriptures & achieved only in Buddhist practice (538).
