Well-makers lead the water (wherever they like) ; fletchers bend the arrow ; carpenters bend a log of wood ; wise people fashion themselves.
Gautama BuddhaSeeker, empty the boat, lighten the load, be free of craving and judgment and hatred, and feel the joy of the way.
Gautama BuddhaHappy are those who have overcome their egos; happy are those who have attained peace; happy are those who have found the Truth.
Gautama BuddhaOur life is shaped by our mind; we become what we think. Suffering follows an evil thought as the wheels of a cart follow the oxen that draws it. Our life is shaped by our mind; we become what we think. Joy follows a pure thought like a shadow that never leaves.
Gautama Buddha
