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. so the intellectual part must definitely be present. at the same time, strictly intellectual development without faith and practice, is also of no use. it is necessary to combine knowledge born from study with sincere practice in our daily lives. these two must go together.

More From Dalai Lama

Study and practice are both very important, but they must go hand in hand. faith without knowledge is not sufficient. faith needs to be supported by reason. however intellectual understanding that is not applied in practice is also of little use. whatever we learn from study we need to apply sincerely in our daily lives.
Hands Practice Understanding
Students of the way must not study buddhism for the sake of themselves. they must study buddhism only for the sake of buddhism. the key to this is to renounce both body and mind without holding anything back and to offer them to the great sea of buddhism.

If science proves some belief of buddhism wrong, then buddhism will have to change. in my view, science and buddhism share a search for the truth and for understanding reality. by learning from science about aspects of reality where its understanding may be more advanced, i believe that buddhism enriches its own worldview.

People need open space. people need to bring their children into an area where they can play without restriction." and i was told, "this is development." and i said, "that is not development, definitely not sustainable development, definitely not responsible development. people need fresh air. they can do without buildings. they can do without concrete. but they cannot do without fresh air.

Knowledge about yourself binds, weighs, ties you down; there is no freedom to move, and you act and move within the limits of thatknowledge. learning about yourself is never the same as accumulating knowledge about yourself. learning is active present and knowledge is the past; if you are learning to accumulate, it ceases to be learning; knowledge is static, more can be added to it or taken away from it, but learning is active, nothing can be added or taken away from it for there is no accumulation at any time.
Moving Taken Learning
Faith and daily life, faith and work-these are not separate things. they are one and the same. to think of them as separate-that faith is faith, and work is work-is theoretical faith. based on the recognition that work and faith are one and the same, we should put one hundred percent of our energy into our jobs and one hundred percent into our faith, too. when we resolve to do this, we enter the path of victory in life. faith means to show irrefutable proof of victory amid the realities of society and in our own daily lives.
