We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.
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.
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.
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.
In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.
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.
To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
