We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.
To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one’s family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one’s own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.
Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship… To keep the body in good health is a duty… otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.
Faith is nourishment, virtuous deeds are a shelter, wisdom is light by day and right mindfulness is protection by night.
To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.
There are two mistakes one can make along the road to truth...not going all the way, and not starting.
