A Mind Beyond Judgements

How can a troubled mind 
Understand the way? 
If a man is disturbed 
He will never be filled with knowledge. 
An untroubled mind, 
No longer seeking to consider 
What is right and what is wrong, 
A mind beyond judgements, 
Watches and understands. 
Know that the body is a fragile jar, 
And make a castle of your mind. 
In every trial 
Let understanding fight for you 
To defend what you have won. 

~Buddha

One thing I know for sure is I was born as a Buddhist, live as a Buddhist and will leave this earth as a Buddhist. I do not believe in superstition. I only believe in karma.
