Do not overlook tiny good actions, thinking they are of no benefit; even tiny drops of water in the end will fill a huge vessel. Do not overlook negative actions merely because they are small; however small a spark may be, it can burn down a haystack as big as a mountain.

Like a lovely flower full of color but lacking in fragrance, are the words of those who do not practice what they teach.

If you let cloudy water settle, it will become clear. If you let your upset mind settle, your course will also become clear.

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

Three things can not hide for long: the Moon, the Sun and the Truth.

What is this world condition? Body is the world condition. And with body and form goes feeling, perception, consciousness, and all the activities throughout the world. The arising of form and the ceasing of form-everything that has been heard, sensed, and known, sought after and reached by the mind-all this is the embodied world, to be penetrated and realized.

The thought manifests as the word. The word manifests as the deed. The deed develops into habit. And the habit hardens into character. So watch the thought and its ways with care. And let it spring from love, born out of concern for all beings.
