If you want to awaken all of humanity, then awaken all of yourself. If you want to eliminate the suffering in the world, then eliminate all that is dark and negative in yourself.

There is no illusion greater than fear.

Let it be still, and it will gradually become clear.

Become totally empty
Quiet the restlessness of the mind
Only then will you witness everything unfolding from emptiness

One who is too insistent on his own views finds few to agree with him

New Beginnings are often disguised as painful endings

Great acts are made up of small deeds

The past has no power to stop you
from being present now.
Only your grievance about
the past can do that.
What is grievance?
The baggage of old
thought and emotion.

Your own positive future begins in this moment. All you have is right now. Every goal is possible from here

He who knows others is wise; he who knows himself is enlightened.

The Way to do is to be.

I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures.

Bearing and nurturing,
Creating but not owning,
Giving without demanding,
Controlling without authority,
This is love.

The further one goes, the less one knows.

Opening your heart, you become accepted.
Accepting the World, you embrace Tao.

Clearing your vision, you become clear.
Nurturing your beloved, you become impartial.

Embracing Tao, you become embraced.
Supple, breathing gently, you become reborn.

all streams flow to the sea because it is lower than they are. humility gives it its power.

To a mind that is still the whole universe surrenders.

Knowledge is a treasure, but practice is the key to it.

The snow goose need not bathe to make itself white. Neither need you do anything but be yourself.

If you realize that all things change, there is nothing you will try to hold on to. If you are not afraid of dying, there is nothing you cannot achieve.

Knowledge is a treasure, but practice is the key to it.

Give evil nothing to oppose
and it will disappear by itself.

Stop thinking, and end your problems.
What difference between yes and no?
What difference between success and failure?
Must you value what others value,
avoid what others avoid?
How ridiculous!

Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men.

If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading.

Water is the softest thing, yet it can penetrate mountains and earth. This shows clearly the principle of
softness overcoming hardness

The hard and stiff will be broken. The soft and supple will prevail.

Thus whoever is stiff and inflexible is a disciple of death. Whoever is soft and yielding is a disciple of life.

Plants are born tender and pliant; dead, they are brittle and dry.
