Compass for the Heart

"The compass will always show you the right direction, so you will stop relying on your own guesses. Like this, wherever you are, you have this sense that shows you the truth." - Ajahn Chah

Watch your actions

As iron is destroyed by the rust it produces,
So those who perform evil* are corroded
by their own actions.

Dhammapada Verse 240

*Note
- Unwholesome actions and unskillful actions: Killing, stealing, lying, adultery due to greed, hatred, fear or ignorance.

Of all the frangrances - sandal, tagara, blue lotus & jasmine - the fragance of virtue is by far the sweetest.
- Dhammapada, Chapter 4, Verse 55.
