All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think, we become 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. There is nothing so disobedient as an undisciplined mind, and there is nothing so obedient as a disciplined mind. Meditate. Live purely. Be quiet. Do your work with mastery.

There are two mistakes one can make along the road to truth - not going all the way, and not starting.

The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, not to worry about the future, or not to anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly. |
