Simply look deeply at joy and sorrow, hoping and fearing, laughter and crying, at all that lives and dies.  We will learn what truly heals is gratitude and tenderness.

No matter the circumstances we must adapt, whether we think the situation is good or bad, resistance is useless.  Being flexible and constantly adjusting to the times is one of the secrets of life.

When we lose trust in ourselves, we begin to depend on authority.  Let go of all conflict and strife, practice unswerving kindness and unending patience.  To become a better person, develop your virtue and extend it to the world.

The force of inner truth depends chiefly on inner stability and preparedness.  From this state, the mind springs the correct attitude towards the outer world.  Retain your inner independence, this way you will have inner peace and the force of inner truth.

Quote: Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
