Start from where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.

The entire path is a path of self-responsibility. Nobody else can walk it for you.

Nothing is permanent. Everything is subject to change. Being is always becoming.

Equanimity is not indifference. It is the balanced state of mind.

A pure mind is always full of love - real love for all others.

Change is the nature of every phenomenon. Accept this truth and you will live a happy life.

Life is nothing but a continuous chain of sensations. Pleasant or unpleasant, observe them objectively.

Peace and negativity cannot coexist just as light and darkness cannot coexist.

The only way to experience truth is to look within, to observe oneself.

Vipassana is the art of living. Not the art of escaping.

Observe the reality as it is, not as you wish it to be.

May all beings be happy, be peaceful, be liberated.

The law of nature is the law of cause and effect. As you sow, so shall you reap.

Sankharas are the seeds of consciousness that manifest as sensations. By observing sensations equanimously, we stop creating new sankharas.

Face your own anger and you will be free from anger. Face your own fears and you will be free from fear.

The past is gone, the future is not yet here. Live in the present moment with awareness.

Be happy at the moment, that's enough. Each moment is all we need, not more.

Metta (loving-kindness) becomes truly effective only when it arises from a peaceful mind, a pure mind, a balanced mind.

Real happiness lies within. It cannot be found in external objects or achievements.

You are the master of your own mind. You can be your best friend or your worst enemy.
