You must use the hook of precepts to quickly remove it.

If you truly loved yourself, you could never hurt another.

Be lamps unto yourselves; be your own confidence. Hold truth within yourselves.

Don't believe a teaching just because you've heard it from a man who's supposed to be holy, or because it's contained in a book supposed to be holy, or because all your friends and neighbors believe it. But whatever you've observed and analyzed for yourself and found to be reasonable and good, then accept that and put it into practice.

Remember, the greatest gift to give people your enlightenment, to share it. It has to be the greatest.

To live a single day and hear a good teaching is better than to live a hundred years without knowing such teaching.

In the same way that rain breaks into a house with a bad roof, desire breaks into the mind that has not been practising meditation.
