When we talk about global crisis, or a crisis of humanity, we cannot blame a few politicians, a few fanatics, or a few troublemakers. the whole of humanity has a responsibility because it is our business, human business. i call this a sense of universal responsibility. that is a crucial point.

More From Dalai Lama

Everyone talks about freedom. all around the world different people, different races, different countries are fighting for freedom. but what is freedom? in america we speak of living in a free country. but are we really free? are we free to be who we really are? the answer is no, we are not free. true freedom has to do with the human spirit-it is freedom to be who we really are. who stops us from being free? we blame the government, we blame the weather, we blame our parents, we blame religion, we blame god. who really stops us from being free? we stop ourselves.

The climate crisis is the greatest challenge humanity has ever faced. from not only the warming of the earth with higher global temperatures, but also from strengthening storms and expanding droughts to melting ice and rising seas, the costs of carbon pollution are already being felt by governments, corporations, taxpayers and families around the world. the climate crisis will affect everything that we love and alter the course of our future. now, more than ever, we must come together to solve this global crisis. we must act decisively, rise to the occasion and solve this monumental challenge.

I think there is such a thing as a bad seed that comes to flower in certain people. the danger with that theory is that we begin to look for those "troublemakers" early on and try to weed them out. that's very dangerous, because it could work against kids who are just routine troublemakers.

They are self-loathing people, these leftists. i can't imagine what it would be like to get up and live their life every day. to have to be mad all the time, at everybody else, knowing full well you are a failure and having the inability to do anything about it because you will not look at yourself. you gotta blame george w. bush or you gotta blame corporations, or you have to blame somebody. blame talk radio.

I look to islamic ethics to find something that can provide the basis for shared values with other traditions, and ultimately universal values. this ties into the point i made in a book, 'the quest for meaning', that the only way for values to be universal is if they are shared universal values. my main point is, in this quest for value the aim is not to express your distinctness from others, but about being able to contribute to the discussion of universal value.

What we call a financial crisis is really at its core a crisis of management, and not just a crisis of management, but a crisis of management culture. ...in other words, what you had is a detachment of people who know the business from people who are running the business.
