Think not lightly of good
saying, “It will not come to me.
Drop by drop is
the water pot filled.
Likewise, the wise one,
gathering it little by little
Fills oneself with good.
Dhammapada: a collection of sayings
of the Buddha in verse form
“The Dhammapada is a text that is over two thousand years old and is rooted in the Buddhist tradition. It speaks of a fundamental power that we all have to use in our everyday experiences: to grow more happiness, more love, and more wisdom inside ourselves. This is truly important these days when people feel pushed around and are often running on empty.”
