I'm not Buddhist, but I have learned much from the Dalai Lama and others. I don't believe Christianity is the only way Tiger can feel better about himself. <br /><br />I employed Buddhist techniques and practices to evolve my psychology and get in touch with my spirituality. Can others do that through Christianity? Sure. When I spent 3 days attending teachings by the Dalai Lama, the Dalai Lama encouraged non-Buddhists to keep their religious traditions. There are spiritual truths the cut across all religions. The stories each religion promotes are just one way to manifest those truths. <br /><br />I feel a great deal of compassion for Tiger. I don't condone what he did.

Why is a political pundit offering advice on which religion to take up?Stoonoreply@blogger.com
