It is not possible to control all external events; But, if I simply control my mind what need is there to control other things?

All the harm, fear, and suffering in the world are caused by attachment to the self: Why should I hold on to this great demon?

Whatever happens, I will not let my cheerfulness be disturbed. Being unhappy won't get me anywhere and will dissipate all my goodness. Why be unhappy about something if you can change it? And if you can't, how will being unhappy help?

All the happiness there is in this world Arises from wishing others to be happy. And all the suffering there is in this world Arises from wishing oneself to be happy.

If the problem can be solved why worry? If the problem cannot be solved worrying will do you no good.

Others are my main concern. When I notice something of mine, I steal it and give it to others.

All that may be wished for, will by nature fade to nothing.
