One should not hurt others even by words. One must not speak an unpleasant truth unnecessarily.

Let me tell you how to love all equally. Do not demand anything of those you love. If you make demands, some will give you more and some less. In that case you will love more those who give you more and less those who give you less. Thus your love will not be the same for all. You will not be able to love all impartially.

The happiness of the world is transitory. The less you become attached to the world, the more you enjoy peace of mind.

What else does one obtain by realization of God? Does one grow two horns? No, the mind becomes pure, and through a pure mind one attains knowledge and awakening.

As long as a man has desires there is no end to his transmigration. It is the desires alone that make him take one body after another. There will be rebirth for a man if he has even the desire to eat a piece of candy.

I tell you one thing - if you want peace of mind, don not fault with others.

There is no treasure equal to contentment and no virtue equal to fortitude.
