WORDS OF THE FOUNDER
|
|
|
|
Wisdom is having civility yet also teaching our children. It is not enough to cultivate civility for ourselves alone. We need to teach our children and grandchildren the same, because the truly wise will instruct their offspring in the meaning of morals and righteousness.
─ Excerpted from
The Mind of a Practitioner, Venerable Master Hsing Yun
