Medical practitioners focus on sick people.
Psychotherapists wrestle with their clients' traumas and neuroses. Philanthropists donate their money, and social workers contribute their time to helping the underprivileged. I am in awe of them all. The level of one's spiritual enlightenment, I believe, is more accurately measured by helping people in need than by meditation skills or mastery of religious doctrine. I'm driven with ambition to promote this work, even as I aspire to do my share of fixing what's hurt.
