There is only one time when it is essential to awaken. That time is now.

Do not breathing in the chronological, do not dream of the later, drain the intellect on the bring about twinkling.

People cleave to their worldly possessions and selfish passions so blindly as to sacrifice their own lives for them. They are like a child who tries to eat a little, honey smeared on the edge of a knife. The amount is by no means sufficient to appease his appetite, but he runs the risk of wounding his tongue.

When a man venerates those worthy of veneration, be they Buddhas or their disciples, who have transcended all obstacles and passed beyond sorrow and tears - venerating such as these, whose passions are extinguished and for whom there is no further source for fear, no one can calculate how great his merit is.

It is the fool who is haunted by fears, dread of dangers, oppression of mind, not the wise man.
