Try to be mindful, and let things take their natural course. Then your mind will become still in any surroundings, like a clear forest pool. All kinds of wonderful, rare animals will come to drink at the pool, and you will clearly see the nature of all things. You will see many strange and wonderful things come and go, but you will be still. This is the happiness of the Buddha.

Only one book is worth reading: the heart.

If it isn't good, let it die. If it doesn't die, make it good.

When sitting in meditation, say, "That's not my business!" with every thought that comes by.

The heart is the only book worth reading.

You should know both the universal and the personal, the realm of forms and the freedom to not cling to them. The forms of the world have their place, but in another way, there is nothing there. To be free, we need to respect both of these truths.

To practice Dhamma means to observe and examine oneself.
