You do not control everything, nor does everything control you. You are not entirely at the hands of your environment, nor is it entirely at the hands of you.

Your actions show what you know, and your replies to obstacles give clarity into what you will learn.

If you take society’s definition of knowing oneself, you will become lost in the many translations.

Find your bones. Believe in what you are.

Taking care of yourself will take care of more than yourself.

Jealousy, and attempting to match others in life and stride, is self-abandonment.

It is not so much about fighting against the ego; it is more about harmonizing with it.

Surrendering is not giving up--it is gaining strength.

To act upon the outer world and change it, you must be first be fine to act upon yourself.
