If you do not possess the staff of caution and discrimination, use the eyes of him who sees. If there is no staff of caution and discrimination, do not wander on the road without a guide.

If something makes you happy in this world, you should think of what will happen to you if that thing were taken away.

Do not feel lonely, the entire universe is inside you.

Let us carve gems out of our stony hearts and let them light our path to love.

Kindle in thy heart the flame of love.

Those who don't feel this love pulling them like a river, those who don't drink dawn like a cup of springwater or take in sunset like a supper, those who don't want to change, let them sleep.

Weep like the waterwheel, that green herbs may spring up from the courtyard of your soul. If you wish for tears, have mercy on one who sheds tears; if you wish mercy, show mercy to the weak.
