Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there in no attachment.
You are the centre of that world. That is the world you live in. Now how will you change the world? By changing yourself.
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
Can the world exist without one to cognise it? Which comes first the being-consciousness or the rising-consciousness? The former is always there and eternal; the latter rises and disappears. It is transient.
When there is harmony in the home, there will be order in the nation. When there is order in the nation, there will be peace in the world.
If you want to leave the world better than you found it, then use your heart of compassion and your life of concern.
Change your thoughts, and you change your world.
