It came to me that I should teach this truth for it is real happiness and joy. The cessation of suffering is possible.

I am always at the beginning.

Like a beautiful flower that is colorful but has no fragrance, even well spoken words bear no fruit in one who does not put them into practice.

Everything is based on mind, is led by mind, is fashioned by mind. If you speak and act with a polluted mind, suffering will follow you, as the wheels of the oxcart follow the footsteps of the ox. Everything is based on mind, is led by mind, is fashioned by mind. If you speak and act with a pure mind, happiness will follow you, as a shadow clings to a form.

Whoever sees me sees the teaching, and whoever sees the teaching sees me.

Being deeply learned and skilled, being well trained and using well spoken words; This is good luck.

When giving to others do not linger on thoughts of a giving, what was given, or the one who has received.
