Watering the flowers and the trees, whispering to them, talking to them. Then, they will grow to be more bright and luxuriant.

Water surrounds the lotus flower, but does not wet its petals.

All fear violence, all are afraid of death.

When a man is stimulated by his own thoughts, full of desire and dwelling on what is attractive, his craving increases even more. He is making the fetter even stronger. But he who takes pleasure in stilling his thoughts, practising the contemplation of what is repulsive, and remaining recollected, now he will make an end of craving, he will snap the bonds of Mara. His aim is accomplished, he is without fear, rid of craving and without stain. He has removed the arrows of changing existence. This is his last body.

I do not fight with the world but the world fights with me.

All that has been hidden is rising, there is no stopping it! These things you cannot hide: the sun, the moon, and TRUTH.

‎You only lose that which you cling to.
