Chase after money and security and your heart will never unclench.

After enlightenment, the laundry.

You can only lose what you cling to.

Don't indulge in careless behaviour. Don't be the friend of sensual pleasures. He who meditates attentively attains abundant joy.

Neither my life of luxury in the palace -nor- my life as ascetic in the forest were ways to enlightenment.

As the fletcher whittles and makes straight his arrows, so the master directs his straying thoughts.

Our life is a creation of our mind.
