No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
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.
Faith is nourishment, virtuous deeds are a shelter, wisdom is light by day and right mindfulness is protection by night.
I reached in experience the nirvana which is unborn, unrivalled, secure from attachment, undecaying and unstained. This condition is indeed reached by me - deep, difficult to see, difficult to understand, tranquil, excellent, beyond the reach of mere logic, subtle, and to be realised only by the wise.
A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity.
Do not dwell in the past; do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
