All descriptions of reality are temporary hypotheses.

The gift of the Truth beats all other gifts. The flavour of the Truth beats all other tastes. The joy of the Truth beats all other joys, and the cessation of desire conquers all suffering

Never have anything to do with likes and dislikes. The absence of what one likes is painful, as is the presence of what one dislikes. Therefore don't take a liking to anything. To lose what one likes is hard, but there are no bonds for those who have no likes and dislikes. From preference arises sorrow, from preference arises fear, but he who is freed from preference has no sorrow and certainly no fear.

Let your diet be spare, your wants moderate, your needs few. So, living modestly, with no distracting desires, you will find content.

Everything is changeable, everything appears and disappears; there is no blissful peace until one passes beyond the agony of life and death.

If you hold yourself dear, protect yourself well.

Victory breeds hatred; the defeated live in pain. The peaceful live happily, giving up victory and defeat.
