Conquer a liar with truth.

A wise man, recognizing that the world is but an illusion, does not act as if it is real, so he escapes the suffering.

True charity occurs only when there are no notions of giving, giver, or gift.

He who can curb his wrath as soon as it arises, as a timely antidote will check snake's venom that so quickly spreads, - such a monk gives up the here and the beyond, just as a serpent sheds its worn-out skin.

Crying with the wise is better than laughing with the fool.

If you knew what I know about the power of giving, you would not let a single meal pass without sharing it in some way.

By giving away food we get more strength. By bestowing clothing on others we gain more beauty. By donating abodes of purity and truth we acquire great treasures.
