Man can be lonely in the midst of others. But the one who is open to the world, the one who knows how to stay brotherly, the one who is supportive of others, that one, even lonely, is never alone.

Let the Tao be present in your life
and you will become genuine.
Let it be present in your family
and your family will flourish.
How do I know this to be true?
By looking inside myself?
He who is in harmony with the Tao
is like a newborn child.

There is no greater illusion than fear,
no greater wrong than preparing to defend yourself,
no greater misfortune than having an enemy.
Whoever can see through all fear

work without effort.
Think of the small as large
and the few as many.
Confront the difficult
while it is still easy;
accomplish the great task
by a series of small acts.

The mark of a moderate man
is freedom from his own ideas.
Tolerant like the sky.
Nothing is impossible for him.
Give evil nothing to oppose
and it will disappear by itself.

Express yourself completely,
then keep quiet.
Be like the forces of nature:
when it blows, there is only wind;
when it rains, there is only rain;
when the clouds pass, the sun shines through.

Wise men don’t need to prove their point;

The Master has no possessions.

The more he gives to others,
the wealthier he is.

This is the basic teaching of the Buddha
A true teacher is one who encourages you to look deeply within;
discovering the beauty and love you possess, and the

you think too highly of yourself
Nor is it that
you think too lowly of yourself.
