Full of love for all things in the world, practicing virtue, in order to benefit others, this man alone is happy.

Inflowing thoughts come to an end in those who are ever alert of mind, training themselves night and day, and ever intent on nirvana

Know from the rivers in clefts and in crevices: those in small channels flow noisily, the great flow silent. Whatever's not full makes noise. Whatever is full is quiet.

He who never thinks of anything as 'mine' does not feel the lack of anything: he is never worried by a sense of loss.

Do not blindly believe what others say. See for yourself what brings contentment, clarity and peace. That is the path for you to follow.

Conquer the angry man by love.

When you know for yourselves, 'These things are wholesome; these things are blameless; these things are praised by the wise; these things, if undertaken and practiced, lead to welfare and happiness,' then you should engage in them.
