The only way to bring peace to the earth is to learn to make our own life peaceful.

Harm no other beings. They are just your brothers and sisters.

An evil deed, like fresh milk, does not go bad suddenly. Smouldering, like fire covered by ashes, the evil deed follows the fool.

As a bee without harming the flower, its colour or scent, flies away, collecting only the honey, even so should the sage wander in the village.

You throw thorns, falling in my silence they become flowers.

As a water bead on a lotus leaf, as water on a red lily, does not adhere, so the sage does not adhere to the seen, the heard, or the sensed.

In his ignorance of the whole truth, each person maintains his own arrogant point of view.
