Article 1
Article 2

Answer the following questions on your blog:1.) Give a brief description of who the Dalai Lama is? (Include resources to support)

 

 

A brief rendering on who the Dalai Lama is: he is the highest person in the Buddhism religion, Dalai Lama is a lecturer and teacher of the Buddhism religion and demonstrates how each individual should run their everyday life. He teaches people how to formulate the right choices and also notify people about once you die what transpires.  

 

2.) Evaluate how the actions of the Dalai Lama in regard to the riots in Tibet would be regarded as exemplary moral integrity.

 

The reason for this is because Dalai Lama had stood down from leader in intention to stop a riot from occurrence, he had committed these actions because he knew that he would save a lot of individuals from dying, and also by stopping a lot of people from doing bad things that he thought may effect them once they are reborn. Dalai Lama does demonstrate a personality of moral integrity because he had knew right from wrong and he knew what he had to perform even if it was affecting him.
