Long is the night for the sleepless. Long is the road for the weary. Long is samsara (the cycle of continued rebirth) for the foolish, who have not recognised the true teaching.

Of all the worldly passions, lust is the most intense. All other worldly passions seem to follow in its train.

Come, live with the doors of the senses guarded, diligent and mindful, vigilant and mindful, with the ways of the mind well watched, possessed of a mind that is awake and observing.

Those who, relying upon themselves only, not looking for assistance to anyone besides themselves, it is they who will reach the top-most height.

The mind is the source of happiness and unhappiness.

When you go into the space of nothingness, everything becomes known.

The hunger of passions is the greatest disease.
