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

It came to me that I should teach this truth for it is real happiness and joy. The cessation of suffering is possible.

The self of which you speak, whether it is the great self or the small self, is only a concept that does not correspond to any reality.

Life can only take place in the present moment. If we lose the present moment, we lose life.

We must be diligent today. To wait until tomorrow is too late. Death comes unexpectedly. How can we bargain with it?

What you have become is the result of what you have thought

The world is afflicted by death and decay. But the wise do not grieve, having realized the nature of the world.
