Things are not what they appear to be: nor are they otherwise.
The wise man makes an island of himself that no flood can overwhelm.
Believe there is good in the world.
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.
The foot feels the foot when it feels the ground.
All compounded things are subject to decay. Strive with diligence!
