You have perhaps a rather orthodox conception of preaching I suspect, its always dangerous to assume anything. Infact I was watching a video the other day when the Dalai Lama was 'preaching', to a small audience about how enlightenment would come not through prayers and religious teaching, but education. Are you suggesting that the Dalai Lama is ramming his message down peoples throats?

But if you were in China or Japan your assesment of your character would be based on your question... or even if you had the balls to ask one. These guys are serious dudes.
