Do not blindly believe what others say. See for yourself what brings contentment, clarity and peace. That is the path for you to follow.

Mind is everything. What we think, we become.

By taking these three steps you will get closer to the Gods: First, Say the Truth. Second: Don't let you get Angry. Third: Give, even though you have so little to give.

Why do what you will regret? Why bring tears upon yourself? Do only what you do not regret, And fill yourself with joy.

When wishes are few, the heart is happy. When craving ends, there is peace.

To avoid causing terror to living beings, let the disciple refrain from eating meat... the food of the wise is that which is consumed by the sadhus [holymen]; it does not consist of meat... There may be some foolish people in the future who will say that I permitted meat-eating and that I partook of meat myself, but... meat-eating I have not permitted to anyone, I do not permit, I will not permit meat-eating in any form, in any manner and in any place; it is unconditionally prohibited for all.

The hunger of passions is the greatest disease.
