Paving the Way
to
Unconditional
Contentment

Om, Shanti.
What I think must be in harmony with what I say, and
with what I feel, and do.
Thoughts, feelings, intentions, words and actions must
all point to the same direction.
Although their alignment will be human and imperfect,
they should have a common substance.
As long as the main goal is noble and its value lasts
forever, I can always improve: in this, however, vigilance is an essential
factor.
My goal is so vast and elevated that I can see it from
a long distance.
As I walk through the road of time, I learn to be
generous regarding other pilgrims. And I focus my soul on my own mission, and
use the power of good will.
Equilibrium results from two elements: having no selfish
desire, and seeking - in impersonal ways - for the wisdom of altruism.
Given these practical conditions, an inner peace and lasting
contentment inevitably emerge; and then, they slowly tend to grow.
Om. Shanti.
