Beware of the pride of wealth, of scholarship,
of status, that drag you into egoism.
Do not seek the faults of others; seek your own.
Be happy when you see others prosper; share your joy with others.
Egoism will be destroyed,
if you constantly tell yourself,
"It is HE not I." "He is the force, I am but the instrument."
If your thoughts center around the body,
you will have worries about pains
and illnesses, real or imaginary.
If they center on riches,
you will be worried about profit and loss,
tax and exemptions, investment and insolvency;
if they roam around fame, then you are bound
to suffer from the ups and downs of scandal,
calumny and jealousy.
So, let them center around the seat
of power and love which deserve willing submission
and let your whole being surrender to it. Then, you will be happy for ever.
