- The most important thing in life is being present in the moment. This could be the solutions to all our problems. If we are intensely present in the present or being conscious of every actions we do, could evaporate all our problems.
- We are responsible for all our problems. Normally we say, somebody hurt us by their words or actions, actually we let some body's words or actions take control of our mind, which would lead us to be unhappy. So let us not allow somebody control our mind.
- We always keep accumulating our memory bank with all our actions and experiences. This memory is the tool with which our subconscious mind executes all our actions. So our subconscious mind compares each our actions with the memory bank and executes the reaction that was registered in our memory bank for that particular action. In the same way we compare other people's actions with our memory bank (we always believed our actions are the best and our knowledge is the ultimate truth) and judge the other people's action. So by being intensely present in each moment, and conscious of our actions could weaken the hold of our subconscious mind. This memory bank is really the root cause of our misery in this life.
The greatest achievement is selflessness. The greatest worth is self-mastery. The greatest quality is seeking to serve others. The greatest precept is continual awareness. The greatest medicine is the emptiness of everything. The greatest action is not conforming with the worlds ways. The greatest magic is transmuting the passions. The greatest generosity is non-attachment. The greatest goodness is a peaceful mind. The greatest patience is humility. The greatest effort is not concerned with results. The greatest meditation is a mind that lets go. The greatest wisdom is seeing through appearances. - Atisha
