A little less conversation, a little more action please

I follow the Dalai Lama on facebook ( I know, who doesn't have a facebook these days?) His status updates are pretty inspirational. The other day this is what he stated:



               "My call for a spiritual revolution is not a call for a religious revolution, nor for a way of life that is otherworldly - still less to something magical or mysterious. It is a call for a radical reorientation away from our habitual preoccupation with self, a call to turn toward the wider community of beings with whom we are connected, and for conduct which recognizes others’ interests alongside our own."


Let's face it, many people in our country are not outwardly religious, but his call for a spiritual revolution can relate to everyone. It is a call to look beyond ourselves and live our lives for the greater good. 

What do you think? Do you agree with the Dalai Lama? How do you contribute to your community?
