I, too, am firmly of the opinion that those who sincerely practice Buddha Dharma must also serve society. Too often we make what we call “the happiness of all sentient beings” the object of our prayers and meditations, yet when we rise from our meditation cushions we fail to give practical help to our neighbors and others in need.
– The Dalai Lama
