We will be thankful and grateful. Not even the last thing that is done for us shall be forgotten.

When an evil-doer, seeing you practise goodness, comes and maliciously insults you, you should patiently endure it and not feel angry with him, for the evil-doer is insulting himself by trying to insult you.

With our thoughts we make the world.

Buddha was speaking in a village square one day, when one of the inhabitants started to abuse him. Buddha paused and said to the man, "If you offer me a piece of paper and I refuse to accept it, what happens to the paper?" "Why, it stays with me, of course," the villager replied. Buddha smiled gently, "And that is exactly what I am doing with your abuse," he said. "I am not accepting it, therefore it stays with you."

As long as one feels that he is the doer, he cannot escape from the wheel of births.

To insist on a spiritual practice that served you in the past is to carry the raft on your back after you have crossed the river.

Better is to speak unpleasant truth than to tell lies.
