become the path...

"Worthy persons deserve to be called so because they are not carried away by the eight winds: prosperity,decline,disgrace,honor,praise,censure,suffering, and pleasure.They are neither elated by prosperity nor grieved by decline. The heavenly gods will surely protect one who is unbending before the eight winds."

"He who experiences the unity of life sees his own Self in all beings, and all beings in his own Self, and looks on everything with an impartial eye."

"Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue."

"To live a pure unselfish life, one must count nothing as one's own in the midst of abundance."

"You cannot travel the path until you have become the path itself."

"When one is deluded, it is as if one were dreaming. And when one is enlightened, it is as if one had awakened."


Gautama the Buddha
