For those struggling in midstream, in great fear of the flood, of growing old and of dying for all those I say, an island exists where there is no place for impediments, no place for clinging: the island of no going beyond. I call it nirvana, the complete destruction of old age and dying.

How can one ever know anything if they are too busy thinking?

Life is a river always flowing. do not hold onto things. work hard.

All descriptions of reality are temporary hypotheses.

Look not for refuge to anyone beside yourself. Heed fast to the truth as a lamp.

The ignorant man is an ox. He grows in size, not in wisdom.

Wherever a person goes, his deeds, like a shadow, will follow.
