Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there is no attachment.
-Dhammapada "Dhammapada 171"
Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there is no attachment.
Learn to make the whole world your own. No one is a stranger, my child; this whole world is your own.
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realise there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.
The world is my country, all mankind are my brethren, and to do good is my religion.
