“To understand the necessity of change, we must consider not only our short-term personal advantage but also the long-range impact our choices have on others we will never know or see: on people living in remote lands, on generations as yet unborn, and on the other species that share our planet.
What is required of us is to adopt a panoramic ethical point of view that takes us far beyond the bounds of mere expediency.” Ven. Bikkhu Bodhi, Tricycle magazine’s Wisdom Colllection
