Let none find fault with others; let none see the omissions and commissions of others. But let one see one's own acts, done and undone.
Gautama BuddhaBefore giving, the mind of the giver is happy; while giving, the mind of the giver is made peaceful; and having given, the mind of the giver is uplifted.
Gautama BuddhaYour worst enemy cannot harm you as much as your own unguarded thoughts. Develop the mind of equilibrium. You will always be getting praise and blame, but do not let either affect the poise of the mind: follow the calmness, the absence of pride.
Gautama Buddha
