Patience is the antidote to anger, by patience we don’t mean “grin and bear it”. Instead of reacting suddenly, smell it, look at it and open yourself to seeing what’s there. The journey of patience involves relaxing, opening to what is happening with a sense of wonder.
Let us not hold ourselves above our fellow human beings, no matter how great the disparity. If some appear less fortunate then us, is their misfortune their own fault, is it fair to blame them? To withhold your scorn is already beautiful, but to see how we are all one family is compassion.
There is an underlying energy or essence that permeates all things, it is always there, it is perfect and creates all things. This energy connects us all with the universe and each other we are all part of it. This energy helps you live a plain and simple life in harmony with nature.
When your work has ended, look back on your conduct and the consequences of your actions. If the effects were good, then good fortune will be the result. It is only by the consequences of your actions and the fruit of your labors that you can judge what to expect.
