A single disturbed thought creates ten thousand distractions.
We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.
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.
The ancestor of every action is a thought… Thought is the blossom; language the bud; action the fruit behind it.
Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well.
