Work out your own salvation. Do not depend on others.

The grudge you hold on to is like a hot coal that you intend to throw at someone, only you're the one who gets burned.

Therefore, be ye lamps unto yourselves, be ye a refuge to yourselves. Hold fast to the truth as a lamp; hold fast as a refuge to the truth. Look not for refuge to anyone besides yourselves.

Those who are truly wise will remain unmoved by feelings of happiness and suffering, fame and disgrace, praise and blame, gain and loss.They will remain calm like the eye of a hurricane.

There are no chains like hate...dwelling on your brother's faults multiplies your own. You are far from the end of your journey.

The tongue like a sharp knife ... Kills without drawing blood.

Don't blindly believe what I say. Don't believe me because others convince you of my words. Don't believe anything you see, read, or hear from others, whether of authority, religious teachers or texts.
