If we are practicing meditation and there is no change in our life, there is something wrong with our practice system.
If we are practicing Dharma and thinking for this life, we are not Dharma practitioner at all.
If we are helping others with a motivation of benefiting only oneself, we are not practicing Bodhicitta at all.
If we are changing for better by doing dharma practice, we are on right path.

~ Gala Rinpoche
