“Happiness comes when your work and words are of benefit to others.”

“When you come upon a paththat brings benefit and happiness to all,follow this courseas the moonjourneys through the stars.”

“Work out your own salvation. Do not depend on others.”

“Praise and blame, gain and loss, pleasure and sorrow come and go like the wind. To be happy, rest like a giant tree in the midst of them all”

“There is no path to happiness: happiness is the path.”

“If we fail to look after others when they need help, who will look after us?”

“Not merely by rules of conduct and religious observances, nor by much learning either, nor even by attainment of concentration, nor by sleeping alone, do I reach the happiness of freedom, to which no worldlings attain. If you have not put an end to compulsions, nurse your faith”
