A good friend who points out mistakes is to be respected, as if he reveals a secret of hidden treasure.

Mankind have love, animals have affection. The harmonious and beautiful world is revealed.

Believe, meditate, see. Be harmless, be blameless. Awake to the law. And from all sorrows free yourself.

Love in the past is only a memory. Love in the future is only a fantasy. True love lives in the here and now.

When an evil-doer, seeing you practise goodness, comes and maliciously insults you, you should patiently endure it and not feel angry with him, for the evil-doer is insulting himself by trying to insult you.

If you can keep as silent as a broken gong, then you have attained, when you know no anger.

When wishes are few, the heart is happy. When craving ends, there is peace.
