Quotations
Dhammapada

If one speaks or acts with pure mind, because of that happiness follows one, even as one’s shadow that never leaves.
Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there in no attachment.
Let us live happily, we who have no impediments. We shall subsist on joy even as the radiant gods.
An ignorant man committing evil deeds does not realise the consequences. The imprudent man is consumed by his own deeds, like one burnt by fire.
