PLEASE DON'T HURT OTHERS...
Please try to work with people and be
helpful to them. A fantastically
large number of people need help.
please try to help them, for goodness sake,
for heaven and earth.
Don't just collect Oriental wisdoms
one after the other. Don't just sit on an
empty zafu, an empty meditation cushion.
But go out and try to help others, if you can.
That is the main point... Your help doesn't
have to be a big deal. To begin with, just work
with your friends and work with yourself
at the same time. It is about time we became
responsible for this world.
It will pay for itself.
