"Unfortunately, there are conflicts in the name of religion. So therefore, religious harmony is very essential. In spite of different philosophies, or different story of histories, all traditions carry the same message – the message of love, compassion, forgiveness, self-discipline, and contentment.
In the West - Judeo-Christian background countries - a certain portion of human beings in these countries get immense benefit from Christianity or from Judaism. And in Asia, like India, millions of Hindus get inspiration from Hinduism. And Thailand, Burma, Sri Lanka, in these areas, from Buddhism - like that. And in the Arab world, millions of people get inspiration from Islam.
What is the reason for these different philosophies? It is quite obvious. For different people, with a different mental disposition, we need a different way to approach. So these different philosophies come, all aiming to promote these values: love, compassion, forgiveness, tolerance, contentment, self-discipline, and so on.
There's a common message, and all different philosophies have more or less the same aim—to help humanity, to promote human values.
So therefore, there is a basis to work together and respect each other. And actually, once we have closer relations—contact—we can learn from each other."
— His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso
