Introduction to Buddhism: "Buddhism Now!" 

 

Live the present to the fullest! By exerting ourselves at this moment, we can fundamentally change the negative causes of our past and create positive causes for our future. Live each day as if it's the last day of our life. Surpass ourselves of yesterday! Transcend our narrow self ! Let's take swift actions with courage, wisdom and compassion to change the world for the better. Think globally and act locally. Don't wait !

     Our task is to establish a firm inner world, a robust sense of self that will not be swayed or shaken by the most trying circumstances or pressing adversity. Only when efforts to reform society have as their point of departure the reformation of the inner life - human revolution - will they lead us with certainty to a world of lasting peace and true human security
