The word manifest as the deed;
The deed develops into habit;
And habit hardens into character;
So watch the thought and its ways with care,
And let it spring from love
Born out of concern for all beings...
As the shadow follows the body,
as we think, so we become."
- from the Dhammapada
I gleamed this quote from one of my favorite books Awakening the Buddha Within by Lama Surya Das. It is an international bestseller and changed my life. I highly recommend it.
