Quote of the day - Mar 26th

To pray for a long life is a natural practice but do not yearn for a long life if you cannot be sure that you will live fruitfully, in harmony with others, and will continue to cultivate for the purpose of attaining enlightenment; otherwise, your long life will mean more opportunities to collect grave demerits or evil karma, which will cause you to be reborn into the lower realms in the future.
