@Aisling "Forgiving... is one of the most important things," Vladislaus said. "When the Dalai Lama said that he prays for all people, he was asked if he also prays for Chinese politicians, who oppress him and his people and who chased him out of the country. And he said, 'Yes, since they are people as well.' And if you
really accept things, they never bother you. Not in the aftermath. If a guy came and pushed me, I'd try to stop it. But afterwards, I wouldn't be mad at him. I wouldn't want revenge. Instead, I would have a talk to him and ask him why he did it."
