However young,
The seeker who sets
out upon the way
Shines bright over the
world.
But day and night
The man who is awake
Shines in the radiance
of the spirit.
Meditate.
Live purely.
Be quiet.
Do your work, with mastery.
Like the moon,
Come out from behind
the clouds!
Shine.

Select Buddha Quotations |
Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace. No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path. Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.
