Die Attraktivität des Dalai Lama ist kein neues Phänomen, wie folgendes Zitat zeigt:

"In another letter ... [Flannery O'Connor] mentioned that Mauriac had written about sitting next to Cardinal Spellman at some function and later said that he would have felt 'more spiritual kinship' with the Dalai Lama." (L.V. Murray: The Abbess of Andalusia.- Charlotte: Saint Benedict Press, 2009, S. 121)
