Awake. Be the witness of your thoughts. You are what observes, not what you observe.
It is because of their tranquil thoughts That creatures go to prosperity.
Your worst enemy cannot harm you as much as your own unguarded thoughts.
Monks, we who look at the whole and not just the part, know that we too are systems of interdependence, of feelings, perceptions, thoughts, and consciousness all interconnected. Investigating in this way, we come to realize that there is no me or mine in any one part, just as a sound does not belong to any one part of the lute.
With our thoughts we make the world.
Those who are free of resentful thoughts surely find peace.
Be vigilant; guard your mind against negative thoughts.
Do not be thoughtless, always be mindful, watch your thoughts! Draw yourself out of the path of evil, like an elephant sunk in mud.
The no-mind not-thinks no-thoughts about no-things.
The world is a looking glass. It gives back to every man a true reflection of his own thoughts. Rule your mind or it will rule you.
Beware of the anger of the body. Master the body. Let it serve truth. Beware of the anger of the mouth. Master your words. Let them serve truth. Beware of the anger of the mind. Master your thoughts. Let them serve truth.
Be the witness of your thoughts.
All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If people speak or act with evil thoughts, pain follows them. If people speak or act with pure thoughts, happiness follows them, like a shadow that never leaves them.
Thought-habits can harden into character. So watch your thoughts.
