rightATITUDE


Itis not that we have to change the world, but our inner tranquillitywill sever us from the world and immune us from its influences.

.....

Ifwe truly seek the Truth, we won't mind any surroundings, and wecan go through anything.

.....

Relaxso that you will be able to progress in your practice. Just benatural. Do not expect that everything will come out perfectly.However, you must not be lazy.

.....

Whetheror not we will attain Buddhahood depends on our hearts and onthe power of our self-confidence, not on how long we "sit"and meditate.

.....

Wewill benefit in our spiritual practice only when we are patientand try our best, without being anxious or disappointed.

.....

Strongfaith in the path of practice is both a blessing power and a greatmerit.

.....

Towant to practice and long for eternal liberation every day ismore important than to attain any spiritual experience.

.....

Certainly,we must practice diligently, but we shouldn't be attached to discrimination.We shouldn't be too stubborn in trying to be a certain person,for what is important is our sincerity, not our appearance.

.....

Weare not to over control our mind or habit, but we also shouldnot spoil it too much - this is the middle way. Let me adviseyou: don't blame yourself too much, nor should you practice intoo ascetic a way. If we practice in an exceedingly ascetic way,our mind cannot stand it! Just like an animal, if you do not giveit what it likes to eat, or if you fail to feed it when it ishungry, one day it will be angry and resist you. When you areoff alert, it will claw or bite you. These incidents happen veryoften.

.....

Aclean quality will naturally make a place become clean, beautifuland holy. Therefore, cleanliness is saintliness.
