Via Daily Dharma


The Dharma of Action | January 31, 2015


We are good at studying, publishing, and spreading the word of Buddhism. Where we have not been very successful is showcasing the compassion and selflessness of the dharma by our actions. We have written many more words in our books than what few kind words we have spoken to the poor, lonely, and desperate. We have built so many more temples than orphanages.

- Ajahn Brahm, "Putting an End to Buddhist Patriarchy"
