Follow then the shining ones, the wise, the awakened, the loving, for they know how to work and forbear.
Gautama BuddhaIf a man going down into a river, swollen and swiftly flowing, is carried away by the current - how can he help others across?
Gautama BuddhaDo not carry with you your mistakes. Do not carry your cares. Travel on alone. Like an elephant in the forest.
Gautama BuddhaSeeker, empty the boat, lighten the load, be free of craving and judgment and hatred, and feel the joy of the way.
Gautama Buddha
