Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.
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.
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.
I reached in experience the nirvana which is unborn, unrivalled, secure from attachment, undecaying and unstained.

Do not dwell in the past; do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
