After much seeking for truth and knowledge the profoundness of reality came to me with a clarity never before known.

Within this moment, the only moment that exists, the past, present and future are contained.

As soon as we think we are safe, something unexpected happens.

I knew that most people never see this reality because they attach to the material aspect of the world. Illusions of self and other fill their vision. I also realized there are those with little dust limiting their vision.

May all sentient beings be happy and free of suffering.

Maintain a state of balance between physical acts and inner serenity,like a lute whose strings are finely tuned.

If a man who has committed many a misdemeanor does not repent and cleanse his heart of the evil, retribution will come upon his person as sure as the streams run into the ocean which becomes ever deeper and wider. If a man who has committed a misdemeanor come to the knowledge of it, reform himself, and practise goodness, the force of retribution will gradually exhaust itself as a disease gradually loses its baneful influence when the patient perspires.
