Make haste in doing good; check your mind from evil; for the mind of him who is slow in doing meritorious actions delights in evil.
If the mind becomes balanced and detached, and comes to dwell in its own true home, imbued with the love of God, then it enjoys the essence of supreme spiritual wisdom; it shall never feel hunger again.
Slowly and steadily cleanse the mind; sharpen the intellect, purify the senses, and win grace.
Direct the mind resolutely towards God, restraining the senses in their various seats, and looking on the state of the body as a matter of indifference. Realise your oneness with God, remaining continually intent on identifying with its nature…for what use is there in other, empty things?
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may prove what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
Flood your mind with love. Look into the eyes of the other and embrace the person with whom you have quarrelled. Words are not necessary. Both will have their eyes flooded, and the joy of tears will wash away all quarrels.
The energy of the mind is the essence of life.
If we are mindful of the true nature of reality, then we never truly lose anyone - even to death.
