Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill.

Just as gold is burnt, cut and rubbed, Examine my words carefully and Do not accept them simply out of respect

Delight in meditation and solitude. Compose yourself, be happy. You are a seeker.

Do not close your eyes before suffering. Find ways to be with those who are suffering by all means, Including personal contact and visits, images, sound. By such means, awaken yourself and others to the reality of suffering in the world.

You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger... Let a man overcome anger by love.

A man should first direct himself in the way he should go. Only then should he instruct others.

Fill your mind with compassion.
