“Although wars and environmental crises are taking place in many parts of the world, through love and compassion, people from different religions and regions can bring peace to our world, increase stability in our society, enhance harmony in our family, and create happiness in our mind. “   HH Drikung Kyabgon Chetsang Rinpoche. 

Benefiting all sentient beings is not just an aspiration.
“Meditation softens and focuses our heart/mind…so that we can skillfully act to benefit beings. It is a tool to deconstruct the ignorance at the root of racism. It is our responsibility to commit to radical introspection on and off the cushion. Black Lives Matter is a cry from the heart ofour beloved country to see the immediacy of the particular poison our culture has produced. May we use our wisdom to end bias and blindness to suffering- both personally and systemically.” Khenmo Drolma
