Let a man overcome anger by love.

Monks, one thing, if practiced and made much of, conduces to great thrill, great profit, great security after the toil, to mindfulness and self-possession, to the winning of knowledge and insight, to pleasant living in this very life, to the realization of the fruit of release by knowledge. What is that one thing: It is mindfulness centered on the body.

How easy it is to see your brother's faults, How hard it is to face your own. You winnow his in the wind like chaff, But yours you hide, Like a cheat covering up an unlucky throw. Dwelling on your brother's faults Multiplies your own. You are far from the end of your journey. The way is not in the sky. The way is in the heart. See how you love.

Both formerly and now, it is only suffering that I describe, and the cessation of suffering.

There is no fire like passion. There are no chains like hate. Illusion is a net, Desire is a rushing river.

Your mind is a powerful thing. When you filter it with positive thoughts, your life will start to change.

Never in this world can hatred be stilled by hatred; it will be stifled by non-hatred - this is the law Eternal.
