Jing Si aphorisms
When we make great vows, not only do we vow to benefit all sentient beings, we put those vows into practice in our daily lives.
The greatest opportunity is here and now!
We cannot make do without courage, we cannot make do without faith. There is nothing in this world that is impossible, nothing we cannot do. There is only what we are unwilling to do.
When we encounter challenges, it is not because the situation is difficult, but because our minds have become stuck.
Stopping the journey halfway is more troublesome than just reaching the end of the path.
Learn to keep an unwavering mind when dealing with the challenges of the people and things around us; learn to maintain quietness and stillness in movement.
