A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity.
Faith is nourishment, virtuous deeds are a shelter, wisdom is light by day and right mindfulness is protection by night.
We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.

Your work is to discover your work and then with all your heart to give yourself to it. That’s the mark of a true professional.
Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn’t learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn’t learn a little, at least we didn’t get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn’t die; so, let us all be thankful.
The Eightfold Path: Right view, right aim, right speech, right action, right living, right effort, right mindfulness, right contemplation.
All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If you speak or act with an evil thought, pain follows. If you speak or act with a pure thought, happiness follows, like a shadow that never leaves.
