In what is seen, there should be just the seen; In what is heard, there should be just the heard; In what is sensed, there should be just the sensed; In what is thought, there should be just the thought. He should not kill a living being, nor cause it to be killed, nor should he incite another to kill. Do not injure any being, either strong or weak in the world.

You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger... Let a man overcome anger by love.

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.

As I am, so are others as others are, so am I. Having thus identified self and others, harm no one nor have them harmed.

Speak only the speech that neither torments self nor does harm to others. That speech is truly well spoken.

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

Find out for yourself what is truth, what is real. Discover that there are virtuous things and there are non-virtuous things. Once you have discovered for yourself give up the bad and embrace the good.
