"It is necessary to help others, not only in our prayers, but in our daily lives. If we find we cannot help others, the least we can do is to desist from harming them."

--His Holiness the Dalai Lama

"From one viewpoint, Buddhism is a religion, from another viewpoint Buddhism is a science of mind and not a religion. Buddhism can be a bridge between these two sides. Therefore, with this conviction I try to have closer ties with scientists, mainly in the fields of cosmology, psychology, neurobiology and physics. In these fields there are insights to share, and to a certain extent we can work together."

--His Holiness the Dalai Lama

How wonderful!
How wonderful!
All things are perfect exactly as they are!

--The Buddha

Renunciation is not getting rid of the things of this world, but accepting that they pass away.

--Aitken Roshi

"Whether one believes in a religion or not, and whether one believes in rebirth
or not, there isn't anyone who doesn't appreciate kindness and compassion."

--His Holiness the Dalai Lama
