greed
is wanting things
to occur as we wish.

anger
arises when we fail
to obtain what we want.

a lute’s strings tightly strung will break
strings loosely strung will not play
with balance, comes a pleasing sound.

just as with a lute
serenity is found when one’s life is
properly balanced.

when tempers are rising

and we do not know how to speak wisely,

it is best to remain quiet.

think first.

once a word is spoken
or an act committed,
we cannot undo the deed.

apologies
retractions
explanations

may lessen, but cannot undo
the harm done,
the pain that will remain.

think first.

live contentedly with modest means
be worthy instead of being praised
think quietly
talk gently
act wisely
understand the past
care about the future.

men have acted ignobly,

in the name of peace,
men have declared war.

in our last moments, we will ask:
what have I accomplished?
did I make a difference?

do not wait till then

ask now.

in the midst of pain and sadness,
find love for all who suffer
the will to seek the truth
the heart to let go of the pain
the strength to find the way out.

everything that comes into existence,
living and non-living,
is connected to everything else.

nothing exists solely on its own.

thinks what he wishes
and does not think
any thought he does not wish to.
