| Quote of the moment |
| When we practice, initially, as a basis we control ourselves, stopping the bad actions which hurt others as much as we can. This is defensive. After that, when we develop certain qualifications, then as an active goal we should help others. In the first stage, sometimes we need isolation; however, after you have some confidence, some strength, you must remain in contact with society, and serve it in any field - health, education, politics, or whatever. In order to serve you must remain in society. |
| ~ The Path to Tranquility, August 1, 14th Dalai Lama ~ |
