Wherever there is jealousy, there will also be hatred..

Wherever there is jealousy
there will also be hatred,
and whenever hatred is visible
you will find jealousy lurking invisibly behind.

Hatred takes on a particular form.
It manifests itself in various ways.
For jealousy there is no form;
it remains hidden under the surface.

It has been said that
there is no person in the world
who does not suffer from some jealousy;
there will be at least a small tendency
towards jealousy in every person.

Conquer Jealousy and
you can Conquer Anything.

To protect the good name
of your family you must
remain alert and aware of others' needs;
this requires sense-control.

If you do not have sense control,
you become arrogant.

One who is arrogant
and devoid of sense-control
is nothing but a demon.

If you want to practice
and protect your true self,
you have to develop sense-control.

For everything worthwhile in life,
sense-control is very important.
