Despite the recent tragedies afflicting our world, the Dalai Lama has continued to maintain his great hope in a bright future for mankind. In an article in The Washington Post he cites the vast humanitarian efforts being made toward aiding refugees fleeing from war-torn countries, as evidence of a positive learning curve amongst our nations’ leaders and why he is hopeful about the future. He also happily acknowledges the unprecedented rise in universal human rights laws across the globe. Abusive laws toward women are another sad subject that he foresees decreasing as the world turns.
