The only way to prove cause and effect in this world is through your own actions: how much you give determines how much you will receive.
A disciple asked a Zen master, "Master, how can I control my emotions and not get angry when things go wrong?" The Zen master replied, "If you believe deeply in karma, you will not be deluded; all grievances are caused by karma, and without delusion, there is no anger." Getting angry is like drinking poison and expecting others to suffer. Leave space in your heart and do not let resentment fill it. To punish yourself with others' mistakes is foolish; to inspire yourself through others' achievements is wise.
Buddha is not an idol, but the fruit of life's spiritual practice. One does not need to burn incense or bow; the Buddha resides in the heart, not outside the body. The Buddha is a predecessor, and humans are future Buddhas. The Buddha is Buddha because he saw through the patterns others could not and achieved what others could not. Humans are human because they are entangled in seven emotions and six desires, unable to see through or break out. If one can achieve sudden enlightenment and learn contentment, we can all become Buddhas.
One who remains calm amidst events can handle great matters; one who is neither angry nor resentful when slandered can navigate chaos; one who does not avoid or fear difficulties can shoulder heavy responsibilities; one who is neither jealous nor greedy can execute great strategies; and one who is neither impulsive nor restless can establish a firm foundation. Youth is hope; as long as we strive, hope lies ahead. Just as flowers bloom only through effort, the brilliance of ideals shines through hard work.
世间唯一可以证明因果的，就是你付出多少，你就必有多少收获。
问禅师：“师父，怎样才能控制情绪，遇事不生气呢？”禅师：“深信因果，则不生迷惑，一切恩怨皆因果所致，无迷则无嗔。生气，就好像自己喝毒药而指望别人痛苦。”——把心里的空间留出来，不要让怨气塞得满满当当。用别人的错误来惩罚自己是愚昧，用别人的成就来激励自己才是宽容。
佛，不是一尊偶像，而是人生修行的硕果。不一定要焚香叩拜，佛在心中，而不在身外。佛是过来人，人是未来佛。佛之所以为佛，皆因他看透了常人看不透的局，做了常人做不到的事。人之所以是人，皆因七情六欲缠身，看不透，也走不出来。若心能顿悟，学会满足，你我皆可成佛。
闻事不喜不惊者，可以当大事。听谤不怒不怨者，可以处烦嚣。遇难不避不畏者，可以担重任。用心不忮不求者，可以举大略。做人不浮不躁者，可以固根本。年轻就是希望，只要我们努力，希望就在前方，生活中的花朵只有付出了努力才会绽放，理想的光彩才会夺目而出。
"Being subjected to unreasonable persecution is unfortunate but responding with hatred only deepens that misfortune"
"Do not waste your energy on unnecessary anger."
"When sad, give yourself a smile; that is grace."
"Master your emotions and remain calm in major matters."
"Do not let trifles ruin your mood, disrupt your rhythm, or harm your health."
