Man's troubles are rooted in extreme attention to senses, thoughts, and imagination. Attention should be focused internally to experience a quiet body and a calm mind.

Every experience, no matter how bad it seems, holds within a blessing of some kind. The goal is to find it.

Hatred does not cease in this world by hating, but by not hating; this is an eternal truth.

The glorious chariots of kings wear out, and the body wears out and grows old; but the virtue of the good never grows old.

Born out of concern for all beings.

This is deathless: the liberation of the mind through lack of clinging.

Our mind is full of anger, jealousy and other negative feelings. Yet we do not realize that these are incompatible with inner peace and joy.
