The mind is everything. What you think, you become

No hay que juntarse con malas compañías, no hay que juntarse con compañías despreciables. Júntate con buenas compañías, júntate con compañías nobles. Guishan, el maestro zen clásico, escribió en sus famosas Admoniciones: «La compañía de los buenos es como caminar entre el rocío y la niebla; aunque a uno no le mojen la ropa, ésta termina por empaparse de humedad. La familiaridad con el mal aumenta el conocimiento y los puntos de vista erróneos, creando mal día y noche.»
