Just as from a heap of flowers many garland strands can be made, even so one born & mortal should do --with what's born & is mortal-- many a skillful thing.
- Dhammapada, 4, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu.
The moment we are enlightened within, we go beyond the voidness of a world confronting us.
- The Buddha
When Buddhists say, A bodhisattva fears not the result, but only the cause, they mean that we must expend the bulk of our energy planting good roots today, rather than fretting about the plants that are already growing from the roots we planted in the past.
- Master Hsing Yun, "Describing the Indescribable"
When you see others errors and you want to guide them because you think they are wrong and you feel compassion for them, you should employ tact to avoid angering them, and contrive to appear as if you were talking about something else.
- Tact, Dogen
Hands restrained, feet restrained speech restrained, supremely restrained-- delighting in what is inward, content, centered, alone: he's what they call a monk. A monk restrained in his speaking, giving counsel unruffled, declaring the message & meaning: sweet is his speech.
- Dhammapada, 25, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu.
