His Holiness the Dalai Lama has always been reminding us that it is not enough to be compassionate. We must act. There are two aspects to action. One is to overcome the distortions and afflictions of your own mind, that is, in terms of calming and eventually dispelling anger. This is action out of compassion. The other is more social, more public. When something needs to be done in the world to rectify the wrongs, if one is really concerned with benefitting others, one needs to be engaged, involved.

We hope that by our effort here in trying to connect Tibetans worldwide and building a platform to share common ideals and voice concerns about issues that affect all Tibetans, is a good step to getting ourselves genuinely engaged in lives of Tibetans from all walks of life. We hope all who visit this site will make that effort in his/her own way. Tashidele!
