"Meditation is not an escape from life... but preparation for really being in life".
Thich Nhat Hanh
"Our goal is to develop human beings with enough inner strength and moral courage to begin restructuring the collective consciousness of society." Sulak Sivaraksa
"I believe that we must consciously develop a greater sense of universal responsibility. We must learn to work not just for our own individual self, family or nation, but for the benefit of all mankind. Universal responsibility is the best foundation for our personal happiness, and for world peace, the equitable use of our natural resources, and through a concern for future generations, the proper care of the environment." The Dalai Lama
For as long as space endures,
And for as long as living beings remain,
Until then may I too, abide
To dispel the misery of the world.
The Dalai Lama
