There are thousands upon thousands of students
who have practiced meditation and obtained its fruits.
Do not doubt its possibilities because
of the simplicity of the method.
If you can not find the truth right where you are,
where else do you expect to find it?
~Dogen

In this world
Hate never yet dispelled hate.
Only love dispels hate.
This is the law,
Ancient and inexhaustible.

~The Dhammapada

Positive and negative are directions.
Which direction do you choose?

As a solid rock is not shaken by the wind,
so the wise are not shaken by blame and praise.
As a deep lake is clear and calm,
so the wise become tranquil
after they listened to the truth.

Good people walk on regardless
of what happens to them.
Good people do not babble on about their desires.
Whether touched by happiness or by sorrow,
the wise never appear elated or depressed…

~Buddha

When you consistently maintain a positive frame of mind,
you’ll become known as a problem-solver rather than
a complainer. People avoid complainers.
They seek out problem-solvers.

~Joseph Sommerville

Always put yourself in others’ shoes.
If you feel that it hurts you,
it probably hurts the other person, too.
~Unknown

World peace can be achieved
When, in each person,
The power of love
Replaces the love of power.

~Sri Chinmoy

Praise and blame,
gain and loss,
pleasure and sorrow
come and go like the wind.

To be happy,
rest like a giant tree
in the midst of them all.
~Buddha

The ones that you love the most
are usually the ones that hurt you the most.
~Unknown

Apologizing does not always mean that you’re
wrong and the other person is right. It just means
that you value your relationship more than your ego.
