When You Are Guilty, It Is Not

All Conflict Comes From Attachment.

Another Illusion Is That External Events Have The Power To Hurt You, That Other People Have The Power To Hurt You. They Don't. It's You Who Give This Power To Them.

If It Is Peace You Want, Seek To Change Yourself, Not Other People. It Is Easier To Protect Your Feet With Slippers Than To Carpet The Whole Of The Earth.

God In Heaven Holds Each Person By A String. When You Sin, You Cut The String. Then God Ties It Up Again. Making A Knot, Bringing You A Little Closer To Him. Again And Again Your Sins Cut The String And With Each Knot God Keeps Drawing You Closer And Closer.

The Poor Think They Will Be Happy When They Become Rich. The Rich Think They Will Be Happy When They Are Rid Of Their Ulcers.
