Let a man overcome anger by love.
Men who are addicted to the passions are like the torch-carrier running against the wind; his hands are sure to be burned.
Cut out the love of self, like an autumn lotus with thy hand!
Suffering does not befall him who is without attachment to names and forms.
All that we are is the result of what we have thought; what we think we become.
The secret of happiness lies in the mind's release from worldly ties.
