“Susila Dharma” refers to the inner motivation to care for other living beings, ethically and with humanity. SDIA’s aim is to help and support ordinary people, of all ages and backgrounds, to get involved at the local, national, regional and international levels to give the best that is within them to improve the lives of others.
For some this inner motivation becomes their life’s work: starting a soup kitchen, a program for at-risk youth or health centre. For those of us who are not in a position to start our own social or environmental project, we can support and build a human connection with those who are doing this work everyday. This might mean holding a fundraiser for project that you believe in or using your talents to support a community project. It might mean telling a story to open a child’s mind. It might mean volunteering in another country, or across the street. In this section you will find pages that we hope will help and inspire you to do your own Susila Dharma in whatever way feels right to you!
