Interviewer : What do you think about terrorists like ISIS and their acts, and can buddhism help this situation?
Dalai Lama : Paused for a good 2seconds said, i read some newspaper and i saw the pictures... of the beheadings. They are masked. Why are they (executioners) masked i asked myself. They themselves, they themselves know they are doing something wrong. That is why they are masked. They know this is wrong. If not they will be proud of what they are doing, show their face...

I chanced upon this sentence, and i saw the tears welling up in this aged 80yrs buddhist ginormous icon. I realised he is just like us. he feels pain. he sees more than me. and i have much to learn. much more experience to pick up. end off with what he said when he started this interview, "Westerners like to say time is money, money is time. I like to say, time is experience, experience is time."
