“The past is already gone, the future is not yet here. There’s only one moment for you to live, and that is the present moment”

The Way is not in the sky; the Way is in the heart.

Set your heart on doing good. Do it over and over again, and you will be filled with joy.

Better than a thousand hollow words is one word that brings peace.

In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.

In separateness lies the world’s greatest misery; in compassion lies the world’s true strength.

Life is a river always flowing, do not hold onto things, work hard.

Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it.

Resolutely train yourself to attain peace.

Learn this from water: loud splashes the brook but the oceans depth are calm.

Nothing is forever except change.

One moment can change a day, one day can change a life and one life can change the world.

Doubt everything. Find your own light.

The greatest prayer is patience.

There is no fire like passion, there is no shark like hatred, there is no snare like folly, there is no torrent like greed.

The darkest night is ignorance.

Those who have failed to work toward the truth have missed the purpose of living.
