Whether you believe in god or not, does not matter so much, whether you believe in Buddha or not, does not matter so much; as a Buddhist, whether you believe in reincarnation or not, does not matter so much. YOU must lead a good life. And a good life does not mean just good food, good clothes, good shelter. These are not sufficient. A good motivation is what is needed: Compassion, without dogmatism, without complicated philosophy; just understanding that others are human brothers and sisters and respecting their rights and human dignity. - Dalai Lama
