family to the community and eventually to the whole world." The Dalai Lama

 "Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it.
Do not believe in anything simply
because it is spoken and rumored by many.

books.

Do not believe in traditions
because they have been handed down for many generations.
But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything
agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it." Buddha
