Do not judge yourself harshly. Without mercy for ourselves we cannot love the world.

With good will for the entire cosmos, cultivate a limitless heart: above, below, and all around, unobstructed, without hostility or hate.

If desires are not uprooted, sorrows grow again in you.

Man should make himself a lot of good karma.

You yourself must make an effort. Buddhas are only show the way. The thoughtful who enter the way are freed from the bondage of defilements.

Death carries off a man busy picking flowers with an besotted mind, like a great flood does a sleeping village.

No matter what path you choose, really walk it.
