Everything that happens to us is the result of what we ourselves have thought, said, or done.We alone are responsible for our lives.

Do not look at the faults of what others have done or not done; observe what you yourself have done or not done.

'As I am, so are these. As are these, so am I.' Drawing the parallel to yourself, neither kill nor get others to kill.

If you determine your course With force or speed, You miss the way of the dharma. Quietly consider What is right and what is wrong. Receiving all opinions equally, Without haste, wisely, Observe the dharma.

Perfect wisdom, Perfect tranquility,Perfect compassion,arise fromOur love,Our sincerity.Our understanding.

Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill.
