You can search the world over and you will find no one who is more deserving of your kindness and well wishing than you yourself.

From the passions arise worry, and from worry arises fear. Away with the passions, and no fear, no worry.

In this world Hate never yet dispelled hate. Only love dispels hate. This is the law, Ancient and inexhaustible.

Those who act with few desires are calm, without worry or fear.

Hatred does not cease in this world by hating, but by not hating; this is an eternal truth.

If you don't see God in the next person you meet, look no further.

To avoid causing terror to living beings, let the disciple refrain from eating meat... the food of the wise is that which is consumed by the sadhus [holymen]; it does not consist of meat... There may be some foolish people in the future who will say that I permitted meat-eating and that I partook of meat myself, but... meat-eating I have not permitted to anyone, I do not permit, I will not permit meat-eating in any form, in any manner and in any place; it is unconditionally prohibited for all.
