Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship… To keep the body in good health is a duty… otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.
Quotations
Gautama Buddha
Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who has said it, not even if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.
There are two mistakes one can make along the road to truth...not going all the way, and not starting.
I reached in experience the nirvana which is unborn, unrivalled, secure from attachment, undecaying and unstained.

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.
To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one’s family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one’s own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.
We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.
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.
