Whoever makes love grow boundless, and sets his mind for seeing the end of birth, his fetters are worn thin. If he loves even a single being, Good will follow. But the Noble One with compassionate heart for all mankind, generates abounding good.

In our interactions with others, gentleness, kindness, respectare the source of harmony

Having abandoned the taking of life, refraining from killing, we dwell without violence, with the knife laid down, scrupulous, full of mercy, trembling with compassion for all sentient beings.

Through effort you will cross any raging flood, through energy you will pass any sorrow.

One is not low because of birth nor does birth make one holy. Deeds alone make one low, deeds alone make one holy.

People cleave to their worldly possessions and selfish passions so blindly as to sacrifice their own lives for them. They are like a child who tries to eat a little, honey smeared on the edge of a knife. The amount is by no means sufficient to appease his appetite, but he runs the risk of wounding his tongue.

Always be mindful of the kindness and not the faults of others
