It is a man’s own mind, not his enemy or foe that lures him to evil ways.
To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
There are two mistakes one can make along the road to truth...not going all the way, and not starting.
Do not dwell in the past; do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
The Eightfold Path: Right view, right aim, right speech, right action, right living, right effort, right mindfulness, right contemplation.
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.
