“The thought manifests the word;The word manifests the deed;The deed develops into habit;And habit hardens into character;So watch the thought and its ways with care,And let them spring forth from loveBorn out of compassion for all beings.As the shadow follows the body, as we think, so we become.”

“Wakefulness is the way to life. The fool sleeps As if he were already dead,But the Master is awakeAnd he lives forever.He watches.He is clear.How happy he is!For he sees that wakefulness is life.How happy he is,Following the path of the awakened.With Great perseveranceHe meditates, seekingFreedom and happiness. ”

“Even as a solid rock is unshaken by the wind, so are the wise unshaken by praise or blame.”

“Love manifests its reality in deeds, not only in words-these alone are without effect.”

“Watch your thoughts, for they will become actions. Watch your actions, for they'll become... habits. Watch your habits for they will forge your character. Watch your character, for it will make your destiny.”

“There is nothing more potent than thought. Deed follows word and word follows thought. And where the thought is mighty and pure, the result is mighty and pure.”

“Kind hearts are the gardens, Kind thoughts are the roots, Kind words are the flowers, Kind deeds are the fruits, Take care of your garden And keep out the weeds, Fill it with sunshine, Kind words, and Kind deeds.”
