An ignorant man committing evil deeds does not realise the consequences. The imprudent man is consumed by his own deeds, like one burnt by fire.

By degrees, little by little, from time to time, a wise person should remove his own impurities as a smith removes the dross from silver.

A solid rock is not disturbed by the wind; even so, a wise person is not agitated by praise or blame.

Let us live happily, we who have no impediments. We shall subsist on joy even as the radiant gods.

Come behold this world, which is like unto an ornamented royal chariot, wherein fools flounder, but for the wise there in no attachment.

Win over the ill-natured man by goodness…Make haste in doing good; check your mind from evil; for the mind of him who is slow in doing meritorious actions delights in evil.
