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.
The world will be balanced when we are balanced.
If you want to leave the world better than you found it, then use your heart of compassion and your life of concern.
Correcting oneself is correcting the whole world. The sun is simply bright. It does not correct anyone. Because it shines, the whole world is full of light. Transforming yourself is a means of giving light to the whole world.
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.
Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realise there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.
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.
