Make haste in doing good; check your mind from evil; for the mind of him who is slow in doing meritorious actions delights in evil.
Those who read books cannot understand the teachings and, what’s more, may even go astray. But those who try to observe the things going on in the mind, and always take that which is true in their own minds as their standard; never get muddled.
Slowly and steadily cleanse the mind; sharpen the intellect, purify the senses, and win grace.
Flood your mind with love. Look into the eyes of the other and embrace the person with whom you have quarrelled. Words are not necessary. Both will have their eyes flooded, and the joy of tears will wash away all quarrels.
Develop a mind of equilibrium. You will always be getting praise and blame, but do not let either affect poise of mind: follow calmness, the absence of pride.
The worthy person is grateful and mindful of benefits done to him. This gratitude, this mindfulness, is congenial to the best people.
Once we surrender our mind to Divine Grace completely, we will be taken care of in every way.
