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.

The mind is everything. What you think you become.
[Whatever we focus on becomes the biggest thing in our lives. Are you focused on your blessings or your problems?]

To keep your body in good health is your duty, otherwise you will not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.

There is no way to peace and happiness;
Peace and happiness is the way.'
The Dhammapada.

Be universal love- radiating towards no one object or person in particular but, like the sun, shining on everything in its path.

Holding on to anger is like picking up a hot coal with the intention of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets hurt.
-Buddha

Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.

Happiness does not depend on what you have or who you are; it solely relies on what you think.

What you think, you become. What you feel, you attract. What you imagine, you create.

No matter how hard the past, you can always begin again.

Throughout the heavens and earth, I alone am the honored one

When it hurts, observe, life is trying to teach you something.

Your work is to discover your world and then with all your heart give yourself to it.

Když muže zasáhne kámen, způsobí mu bolest. Když ale tento muž, v reakci na své zranění, podlehne vnitřnímu trápení, truchlení a stěžování si, pak cítí bolesti dvě - tělesnou a duševní. Je to podobní, jako by sám sebe dobrovolně ubíjel ještě jedním kamenem.
