One should become the master of one's mind rather than let one's mind master him.

Never let life's hardships disturb you. No one can avoid problems, not even saints or sages.

By an increase in anger, warfare arises. By an increase of greed, famine arises. By an increase of stupidity, pestilence arises. Because these three calamities occur, the people's earthly desires grow all the more intense, and their false views thrive and multiply.

That which you give to another will become your own sustenance; if you light a lamp for another, your own way will be lit.

Faith Alone is what really matters.

Worthy persons deserve to be called so because they are not carried away by the eight winds: prosperity,decline,disgrace,honor,praise,censure,suffering, and pleasure.They are neither elated by prosperity nor grieved by decline. The heavenly gods will surely protect one who is unbending before the eight winds.

If one lights a fire for others, one will brighten one's own way.
