The wise man makes an island of himself that no flood can overwhelm.

If you don't see God in the next person you meet, look no further.

Monks, when ignorance is abandoned, and knowledge arises in the monk, with the ending of ignorance and the arising of knowledge he clings neither to sense-pleasures, nor does he cling to views, nor to precepts and vows, nor to a Self-doctrine. Not clinking, he is not disturbed; not disturbed, he attains individually nibbana.

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.

He who experiences the unity of life sees his own self in all beings.

Rather than continuing to seek the truth, simply let go of your views.

Free from passion and desire, you have stripped the thorns from the stem.
