Keeping Your Mind Unmoved Is the Greatest Obstacle Remover
2023 / 12 / 30
Our biggest obstacle is our attachment, so don’t think too much. Only then will your mind get a bit more peaceful.
Do Not Use Dharma to Protect Your Attachments
2023 / 1 / 11
Our tendency to easily get nervous about anything is because we have points of attachments in our hearts.
It Would Be Fantastic If One Strives to Keep the Lowest Profile Possible
2020 / 11 / 20
I will learn to keep all these practices
Untainted by thoughts of the eight worldly concerns.
May I recognize all things as like illusions,
The One Who Keeps a Low Profile Achieves Great Cause

In brief, directly or indirectly,
I will offer help and happiness to all my mothers,
And secretly take upon myself
Great! All Debts Have Been Repaid!
2020 / 11 / 17
Even when someone I have helped,
Or in whom I have placed great hopes
Mistreats me very unjustly,
I will view that person as a true spiritual teacher.
Receiving Congratulations from All
2020 / 11 / 17
Whenever someone out of envy
Does me wrong by attacking or belittling me,
I will take defeat upon myself,
And give the victory to others.
Here Comes Your Chance!
2020 / 11 / 17
Whenever I see ill-natured beings,
Or those overwhelmed by heavy misdeeds or suffering,
I will cherish them as something rare,
As though I’d found a priceless treasure.
Good News! The Mara has been Defeated
2020 / 11 / 16
In my every action, I will watch my mind,
And the moment destructive emotions arise,
I will confront them strongly and avert them,
Since they will hurt both me and others.
Even Ghosts Would Know That You Are a Nice Guy
2020 / 11 / 15
Whenever I’m in the company of others,
I will regard myself as the lowest among all,
And from the depths of my heart
Cherish others as supreme.
