Do what is beneficial
not only for your self
but for all manifestations of Life.
Embody purity in your intentions
and do no harm —
either in
thought,
word
or
deed.
Let go
of clinging
to the pernicious need
to compare and compete.
Live in peace.
Live in joy.
Live
in
Pure
Love —
even amidst those
who choose
to violate,
harm,
and perpetuate suffering.
Be in the world,
while not being of it.
Look deeply within —
every day
and
rest —
take refuge
in the Pure Heart-Mind —
in the Still Point —
the Eye at the Centre of the Storm —
where you are free from fear and aversion —
craving and clinging —
attachment and addition —
where you are free
to experience the
pure
childlike
gratitude
joy
and
wonder
of
the
Way.
— an adaptation of a teaching by Siddhārtha Gautama Buddha, as recorded in the Dhammapada, (lit. ‘The Way of Eternal Truth’, a collection of wisdom sayings attributed to Siddhārtha Gautama Buddha)
