The Three Main
Commitments of the Dalai
Lama
By: Nadia Cavner
The Three Main Commitments of the Dalai
Lama
Over the course of her career in finance, Nadia Cavner has made time to work with
various charity groups at both the local and international level. In 2010, Nadia Cavner
brought together business leaders to meet with the Dalai Lama in support of the Tibetan
Settlement Revitalization Program.
The Three Main Commitments of the Dalai
Lama
As the spiritual leader of the Tibetan Buddhist faith, the Dalai Lama must maintain a wide
range of responsibilities. The first commitment of the Dalai Lama is to spread the practice
of redemptive human traits such as forgiveness and compassion. His life must be defined
by a strong moral compass, which he is responsible for sharing with everyone he meets.
As part of this highly ethical lifestyle, the Dalai Lama is tasked with promoting equality
among all humans.
The Three Main Commitments of the Dalai
Lama
As a religious leader, the Dalai Lama’s second commitment is to promote religious
tolerance and seek peace and understanding among all of the world’s religions. Finally,
the Dalai Lama must live up to his title by serving the Tibetan people in a trustworthy
manner while working toward their freedom. Should Tibet achieve freedom, the Dalai
Lama’s third commitment will be fulfilled, while the first two commitments remain eternal.
