An Alphabet For Living

Evil-doer suffer here and hereafter
Fortify your mind and be non-attached
Guard your thoughts and senses
Hatred never cease through hatred
Ignorance seeks undue fame
Just be pure in deeds, speech and thoughts
Knowledge is not realization
Learning without practice is of no worth
Make haste in doing good deeds
Non-violence is the characteristic of wise man
One meaningful sentence is better than a thousand useless words
Practice is better than mere teaching
Quarrels cease through right thinking
Retaliation does not lead to peace
Seek not others’ faults but your own
The one with little learning lacks wisdom
Unshaken as a rock, one must be amidst praise and blame
Victor of yourself than a victor of others
Weak succumb to temptation but not the strong
X-ercise your own judgments
You are your own saviour
Zap yourself out of delusion
