"In Buddhism, both learning and practice are extremely important, and they must go hand in hand. Without knowledge, just to rely on faith, faith, and more faith is good but not sufficient.

It is necessary to combine knowledge born from study with sincere practice in our daily lives. These two must go together."

-- Dalai Lama
