There is nothing more beautiful than a mind that is ripe with knowledge.
With all his attachments cut,
with the mind's urge all stilled,
calm, serene and happy is he,
for he has attained peace of mind.
(Samyutta Nikaya I, 212)
Wonderful it is to train the mind,
so swiftly moving, seizing whatever it wants.
Good is it to have a well-trained mind,
for a well-trained mind brings happiness.
(Dhammapada 35)
A careless word may kindle strife.
A cruel word may wreck a life.
A timely word may level stress.
A loving word may heal and bless.
(Anonymous)
Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
(Philippians 2:3 KJV)
The self is the friend of a man who has masters himself through the self, but for a man without self mastery, the self is like an enemy at war.
(The Bhagavad Gita), India, circa A.D first century.
May I grant myself the serenity to accept that which I cannot change.
May I grant myself the courage to change that which I can.
And may I one day hold the wisdom to know the difference.
(Altered Christian Proverb)
Moderately wise each one should be,
Not overwise, for a wise man's heart is seldom glad.
(Norse Proverb)
The mind knows only what lies near the heart. (Norse Proverb)
Car'pe Di'em = Sieze the day. (Latin)
Death is nothing, but to live defeated is to die every day. (Napolean Bonaparte) 1769-1821.
What most often weighs you down and brings you misery is the past, in the form of unnecessary attachments, repititions of tired fomulas, and the memory of old victories and defeats. You must conciously wage war against the past and force yourself to react to the present moment. Be ruthless on yourself; do not repeat the same tired meathods. Sometimes you must force yourself to strike out in new directions even if it involves risk. What you may lose in comfort and security, you will gain in surprise, making it harder for your enemies to tell what you will do. Wage guerrilla war on your mind, allowing no static lines of defence, no exposed citadels---make everything fluid and mobile. Robert Green (The 33 Strategies of War) - 2006
Live each day as if it was your last.
For Time is Fleeting.
Life is too short for anger or hate.
Love yourself and one another.
If Indifferent towards both:
Internal states & external phenomena,
Living beings & lifeless things,
Past, present & future events,
How can one be hurt, upset,
Disturbed or distressed ?
Calm is his mind.
Calm is his speech.
Calm is his action.
So is the Tranquillity;
So is the Equanimity;
of one Released by Insight
of Right Understanding...
The Only Clever Killing:
Sakka - the king of the 33 divinities - once
spoke these verses to the Blessed Buddha:
Having slain what, does one sleep in peace ?
Having slain what, does one never sorrow?
What is the one thing 0ohh Gotama
Whose killing you approve ?
The Blessed One:
Having slain Anger, one sleeps in calm ease;
Having slain Anger, one does not sorrow
The killing of Anger, 0ohh Vasava
With its poisoned root and honeyed tip:
This is the killing, the Noble Ones approve.
For having slain that, one does not grieve.
Sakka continued:
I am not one easily upset in mind.
Nor easily agitated by Anger's whirl.
I never become angry for long
Nor does Anger hang on in me.
When angry, I do not despise.
Nor do I praise own qualities.
I keep myself well controlled.
Protecting my own future good.
Therefore: Bring Anger under control;
Do not let your friendships decay.
Do not blame one who is blameless;
Do not speak splitting speech.
Like the roaring mountain avalanche
Their own Anger crushes evil people.
Do not let Anger overpower you;
Do not become angry with the anger.
Noble Ones always remain harmless.
Like a devastating mountain avalanche
Their own Hate crushes bad people.
The only clever killing.
Is the killing of anger.
If it is not kindness, it is not me. (Sacred Bhudda)
Do on to other's as you would have done on to you. (Bible's Golden Rule)
I've Smoked dope, chewed rope, danced, romanced, fucked, farted, fought, shot the moon, drove big trucks, been to janesville mane, spain, spokane and fort wayne, seen three worlds fairs, been around the world twice, looked danger in the face, seen goats fuck in the market place, but I've never seen shit like the shit that goes on around this place.
For real. Peace. Laxin. Chillin. Chillaxing. Laid back. In the shack. Kicking round. Rollin. Pumping up. Smokin. Straight cut. No bluff. I ain'nt ghetto or hood. I speak da shit, but it don'nt rip. Like you trying to keep up, wit cho lip. Flappin out the back, but my words they attack. Your mind, you can'nt think or rhyme like me, see, so don'nt even try. You might find, yourself lost, when you toss it up, break it down, then concieve what's been said to thee.
... I don'nt rhymes, I mesmerize. But that shit is too easy.
Those who do not see my obvious greatness, are mearly blinded by jealousy.
I am not egotistical, but you must believe in yourself or you have nothing.
You were walking good, but you just fell.
You were walking good, but your going to hell.
You were walking good, but your spewing gore.
You were walking good, but you walk no more.
If you are smarter than me, I am stronger than you.
If you are stronger than me, I am smarter than you.
If you are smarter and stronger than me, my spirit and will is greater.
If your spirit and will are greater, I am stronger and smarter than you.
WE ARE ALL EQUAL.
