When you have thoughts and feelings of unworthiness use your intelligence, courage, and humour to turn the tide.  Ask yourself do I want to strengthen what I am feeling right now?  Remind yourself that your fundamental nature is unconditionally open and free.

Create your own destiny, make all your actions count.  You don’t have to follow the path outlined in some mystical teachings; create your own.  Use your imagination to cope with the travails of life, realize what you envision and you will know unexpected happiness.

Do non-doing, strive for non-striving, regard the small as important, make much of little, repay enmity with virtue.  Do the most difficult things while they are easy, do the great while it is still small.  It is through being slothful and not dealing with difficulty that you create problems.

If you seek fulfillment, you find fulfillment, it is just a matter of what you seek for yourself.   Seek what is right and understand what is being fulfilled.  It is a matter of seeking benevolence, justice and enlightened qualities for yourself and not relying on others.

Quote: By stillness one can control danger and by action one can solve danger.
