Respect your own beliefs without in any way being
disrespectful or discourteous towards other religions. To this end, we must establish mutual understanding;
mutual cooperation with friendliness towards other religions to achieve
religious harmony. The aim of Buddhism is to guide everyone to lead a noble
life without harming anyone. Buddhism is a religion which teaches people to
“live and let live”. In the history of the world, there is no evidence to show
that Buddhists have interfered or done any damage to any other religion in any
part of the world for the purpose of introducing their religion. Buddhists do
not regard the existence of other religions as a hindrance to worldly progress
and peace.
