I am just one human being.

If some people have the belief or view that the Dalai Lama has some miracle power, that's totally nonsense. I am just one human being.

I am just a human being trying to make it in a world that is rapidly losing its understanding of being human.

This is what I do for a living. It's not who I am as a human being.

Of course, when I say that human nature is gentleness, it is not 100 percent so. Every human being has that nature, but there are many people acting against their nature, being false.

I am as dispassionate as it is possible for a human being to be and not be a machine.
