Open yourself up to the continually changing, impermanent nature of your own being and that of reality. You will increase your capacity to care about others and not to be afraid. You will begin to think of your life as offering endless opportunities to start to do things differently.
If you find yourself blocked and frustrated by life, look for the inevitable outlet. Nothing is permanent so our obstacles cannot last. We need to look for the first opportunity to set things moving again. As soon as you see an opportunity, act and engage in it fully.
Knowing others is intelligence, knowing yourself is true wisdom. When you master yourself, you do not have to master others. When you know you have enough, then you are truly wealthy. Find your roots and nourish them and you will know longevity.
If one’s strength is great, one can progress and contribute one’s talent to society, but your motivation should be pure. Being too firm in one’s character will lead to difficulties in dealing with society. If you are not firm enough, you will find it difficult to deal with everyday life.
Quote: The best portion of a good man’s life is his little nameless, unencumbered acts of kindness and of love.
