Buddhism Plain & Simple by Steve Hagen
“The buddha-dharma does not invite us to dabble in abstract notions. Rather, the task it presents us with is to attend to what we actually experience, right in this moment. You don't have to look "over there." You don't have to figure anything out. You don't have to acquire anything. And you don't have to run off to Tibet, or Japan, or anywhere else. You wake up right here. In fact, you can only wake up right here.

So you don't have to do the long search, the frantic chase, the painful quest. You're already right where you need to be.”

“ஒன்றைக் கற்றுக் கொள்ளுங்கள். பிறகு, அதில் தேர்ச்சி பெற உழையுங்கள். கற்க கசடற கற்றவை கற்றபின் நிற்க அதற்குத் தக”
Ravishankar Ayyakkannu, கடமை கண்ணியம் கட்டுப்பாடு

“யாதும் ஊரே யாவரும் கேளிர் தீதும் நன்றும் பிறர்தர வாரா நோதலும் தணிதலும் அவற்றோ ரன்ன சாதலும் புதுவது அன்றே, வாழ்தல் இனிதென மகிழ்ந்தன்றும் இலமே முனிவின் இன்னா தென்றலும் இலமே, மின்னொடு வானம் தண்துளி தலைஇ யானாது கல் பொருது மிரங்கு மல்லல் பேரியாற்று நீர்வழிப் படூஉம் புணைபோல் ஆருயிர் முறை வழிப் படூஉம் என்பது திறவோர் காட்சியில் தெளிந்தானம் ஆகலின், மாட்சியின் பெரியோரை வியத்தலும் இலமே, சிறியோரை இகழ்தல் அதனினும் இலமே. (புறம்: 192) பொருள் எல்லா ஊரும் எம் ஊர் எல்லா மக்களும் எம் உறவினரே நன்மை தீமை அடுத்தவரால் வருவதில்லை துன்பமும் ஆறுதலும்கூட மற்றவர் தருவதில்லை சாதல் புதுமை யில்லை; வாழ்தல் இன்பமென்று மகிழ்ந்தது இல்லை வெறுத்து வாழ்வு துன்பமென ஒதுங்கியதுமில்லை பேராற்று நீர்வழி ஓடும் தெப்பம்போல இயற்கைவழி நடக்கும் உயிர்வாழ்வென்று தக்கோர் ஊட்டிய அறிவால் தெளிந்தோம் ஆதலினால்,பிறந்து வாழ்வோரில் சிறியோரை இகழ்ந்து தூற்றியதும் இல்லை பெரியோரை வியந்து போற்றியதும் இல்லை.”
Ravishankar Ayyakkannu, கடமை கண்ணியம் கட்டுப்பாடு

“The best revenge is not to be like your enemy" - Marcus Aurelius”
Ravishankar Ayyakkannu, கடமை கண்ணியம் கட்டுப்பாடு

“Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak.”
Sun Tzu, The Art of War

“Supreme excellence consists of breaking the enemy's resistance without fighting.”
Sun Tzu, The Art of War

“Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win”
Sun Tzu, The Art of War

“All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when we are able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must appear inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.”
Sun tzu, The Art of War

“Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt.”
Sun Tzu, The Art of War
