The mindfulness of in and out breathing, of body contemplation, of keeping consciousness of the moment, is a noble occupation and a sublime way, leading to independence of mind and to wisdom. -Samyutta Nikaya
The everyday life of people is like clouds and water, but clouds and water are free while people are not. If they would get to be as free as clouds and water, where would people's compulsive mundane routines arise? -Dogen, "Rational Zen"
Cultivate modesty in the midst of good fortune, But in times of adversity preserve your dignity. -Tirukkural 97:963
