The Eightfold Path: Right view, right aim, right speech, right action, right living, right effort, right mindfulness, right contemplation.
Be more humble than a blade of grass, more tolerant than a tree, always offering respect onto others and never expecting any in return.

There is no limit to joy. Happiness has no end. When you are standing in love of God, every cell in your body jumps for joy. You breathe in and out with the entire universe. In this state, your life is fulfilled.

-Haruki Murakami
