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.
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.
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.
A family is a place where minds come in contact with one another. If these minds love one another the home will be as beautiful as a flower garden. But if these minds get out of harmony with one another it is like a storm that plays havoc with the garden.
I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.
