Dalai Lama and ex- Canadian Defense Minister present solutions to global problems

When asked how we can solve the Earth’s problems, the 14^th Dalai Lama answered on a recent appearance on the  NBC's Today Show " people are experiencing difficulties. These difficulties are temporary. Human beings have a gentle nature and they are creative. Many problems are man-made locally.We have the ability to work on these problems and overcome this atmosphere of sadness."

Mankind should  perhaps consider the the wisdom of some elder statemen whether in the spiritual or political realm in an effort to closely examine certain solutions to planetary problems and to create a scenario for transparency in government and a pathway for UFO disclosure and world peace in an exopolitical arena.

Ironically, when interviewed by this reporter on May 7th, 2010, the ex-Defense Minister of Canada Paul Hellyer suggested a  similar solution to the"hell bent on destruction "scenario that the planet faces.

He replied that we need this change in the next ten years. It appears that he agrees with the Dalai Lama when he says" I am calling for a year of forgiveness where all of the people who have fought others over the past 2,000 years or more, forgive whoever did it and it's two ways almost in every case and  then start cooperating and building the kingdom of God" which he defines as" a world where everybody has enough to eat,  has clean water to drink and a roof over their head,and sufficient access to education. This really would produce  the kind of world that we all talk about, dream about and do very little about."

This taken into account, humanity has some difficult choices in a strife ridden world. They  must create a scenario of “hope” and redirection. In the words of his holiness, the Dalai Lama,  “ man must practice compassion,tolerance and forgiveness. He stresses man's ability to be very creative, to find solutions to this crisis whether ecological, financial or spiritual. Man created it; therefore, man can solve it.

The need for truth ad honesty is not because it is convenient, but because it is the law. To unravel the tapestry of deception which traditionally has been the work of secret shadow governments and the ruling elite will take an act of man or men and certainly  great men who step up to the plate to take this on. It will take commitment from those who will lead. Can it be done?  There is a common prayer."God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change;courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference.by Reinhold Niebuhr (1892-1971)
