“We shall be easy to admonish and make ourselves easy to admonish because we honor, respect and revere the Dhamma”, The Buddha

A Precious Human Life“Every day, think as you wake up Today I am fortunate to have woken up. I am alive and I have a precious human life. I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, To expand my heart out to others, To achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings. I am going to have kind thoughts towards others. I am not going to get angry or think badly about others. I am going to benefit others As much as I can.”H.H. the 14th Dalai Lama
