Empty speeches
are not as valuable as a single word that brings peace,
Know this.
One gift
that brings relief is greater than many which bring
distraction.
The man who masters himself
is a greater warrior,
Than those who try to master the many.
Making offerings and granting recognition
to the high and mighty,
Is weak compared to the offerings
given to the needy.
A single day lived with virtue and awareness
is far greater than a thousand years
lived in want and without discipline.
A single act of kindness and compassion
is superior to years of talk without action.
A day of great effort
is better than a life of idleness.
A single day of life
aware of the deathless state,
Is worth more than a hundred years
lived in fear of death.
See the truth
and live worthy.
