I think the most important element is the juice that fuels the practice which can become a journey of self and other, when taught interdependently as a sincere effort to help future generations of children.

I agree with you that compassion is a stable foundation that should not be excluded in order to achieve enlightenment, however I believe that in order to do this we must turn our focus inward; so that we can let go of the stresses from the outside world and control our own responses. While I agree that we have to make a sincere effort to produce great things for the future I do not agree that it involves the west's idea of itself - but the introspect of each individual. But please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Quote
