"We must first learn to be a good human being, before we can be a good Dharma practitioner and benefit other. "
Buddhism is “A Way of Life” that is based upon the philosophy of self-responsibility and self-accountability for betterment or for worse, which we call “karma.” Virtues lead to good life and happiness; negative thoughts and actions create pain and suffering. Thus, we are the sole creators and constructors of our own lives and destiny.
