Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, it empties today of its strength.

Strength is the product of struggle.

Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.

Son of Being! With the hands of power I made thee and with the fingers of strength I created thee; and within thee have I placed the essence of My light. Be thou content with it and seek naught else, for My work is perfect and My command is binding. Question is not, nor have a doubt thereof.

The merits of even enemies have to be recognised while the demerits of even preceptors have to be got rid of. Neither prosperity nor adversity is likely to be permanent. It is only the work of past lives that is the cause of permanent wealth or misery. The result of learning is wisdom and humility, that of wealth is sacrifice and charity, that of strength is known to be the protection of the good. The snake, the fire, the wicked man, the king, the soninlaw, the nephew the disease and the enemy  these are not to be disregarded as being too small. The miserable, the blind, the dwarf and the dumb are never to be laughed at. One should not apply one’s mind to wrong deeds but carry out one’s duties without delay. The mans should give up vanity (and do his duty) by perseverance, strength, intelligence, patience, rashness or prowess.
