I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.
I reached in experience the nirvana which is unborn, unrivalled, secure from attachment, undecaying and unstained. This condition is indeed reached by me - deep, difficult to see, difficult to understand, tranquil, excellent, beyond the reach of mere logic, subtle, and to be realised only by the wise.
Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who has said it, not even if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.
Your work is to discover your work and then with all your heart to give yourself to it. That’s the mark of a true professional.
A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity.
There are two mistakes one can make along the road to truth...not going all the way, and not starting.
