Taming the mind is wonderful, for a tamed mind brings happiness.

Rangjung Yeshe Gomde, Germany/Austria, 2009
Whoever wishes for excellent qualities is caught in the ravine of desire.
Whoever wishes for results is carried away by the cold wind of hope.
Whoever wishes for signs and marks has fallen into the snare of Mara.
- Gampopa
Lerab Ling, France, 2009
Commit not a single misdeed,
Perform an abundance of virtue,
Completely tame your own mind;
This is the Buddha’s teaching.
