SANSKRIT PROVERBLook at this day, for it is life, the very life of life. In its brief course lie all the realities and verities of existence, the bliss of growth, the splendor of action, the glory of power. For yesterday is but a dream, and tomorrow is only a vision, but today, well lived, makes every day a dream, a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well, therefore, to this day |

1.) the promotion of basic human values or secular ethics in the interest of human happiness,
2.) the fostering of inter-religious harmony, and
3.)the welfare of the Tibetan people, focusing on the survival of their identity, culture and religion.”

Beginner's Mind
Sit down before facts like a little child, and be prepared to give up every preconceived notion. Follow humbly whatever and to whatever abyss nature leads, or you shall learn nothing.
