Sukhakāmāni bhūtāni,
yo daṇḍena na hiṃsati
attano sukhamesāno,
pecca so labhate sukhaṃ.
One who, while oneself seeking happiness,
does not oppress with violence other beings
who also desire happiness,
will find happiness hereafter.

David Hudson is credited by most people in the field as being the originator of the term “Orbitally Rearranged Monatomic Elements”, or by its acronym, the ORMEs (ORMUS). Mr. Hudson began speaking publicly about his research and discoveries in 1995, claiming that he had discovered an ingestable matter that caused Superconductivity in the human body, or in other words, what some interpret as the alchemical Philosopher’s Stone.

Pahūtavitto puriso
sahirañño sabhojano,
eko bhuñjati sādūni —
taṃ parābhavato mukhaṃ.
To have much wealth
and ample gold and food,
but to enjoy one’s luxuries alone —
this is a cause of one’s downfall.

Everyman’s Ethics: Four Discourses by the Buddha (WH 14), translated by Narada Thera

Who is wise and virtuous,
Gentle and keen-witted,
Humble and amenable,
Such a one to honour may attain.

Everyman’s Ethics: Four Discourses by the Buddha (WH 14), translated by Narada Thera
Maraṇenapi taṃ pahīyati
yaṃ puriso mamidanti maññati.
Etampi viditvā paṇḍito,
na mamattāya
nametha māmako.
At death a person abandons
what one construes as mine.
Realizing this, the wise
shouldn’t incline
to be devoted to mine.
Sutta Nipāta 4.812
Translated from Pāli by Thanissaro Bhikkhu
Na tena ariyo hoti yena pāṇāni hiṃsati.
Ahiṃsā sabbapāṇānaṃ
“ariyo”ti pavuccati.
One is not noble who injures living beings.
One is called “noble” because
one is harmless towards all living beings.

One who destroys life, utters lies,

such a man digs up one’s own root even in this world.

Imesu kira sajjanti,
Eke samaṇabrāhmaṇā;

Some recluses and brahmins, so called,
Are deeply attached to their own views;
People who only see one side of things
Engage in quarrels and disputes.

Sukarāni asādhūni,
attano ahitāni ca.
Yaṃ ve hitañca sādhuñca,

Easy to do are things
that are bad and harmful to oneself.
But exceedingly difficult to do
are things that are good and beneficial.

who else could the protector be?
With oneself fully controlled,
one gains a mastery that is hard to gain.

With good will for the entire cosmos,
cultivate a limitless heart:
Above, below, & all around,
unobstructed, without downloadility or hate.

Translated from Pāli by Thanissaro Bhikkhu
The Devi Prayer is a Mantra evoking the 108 Names of the Divine Mother.
In English:
The Divine Mother is everywhere.
She is in everything.
She is the Divine Essence that lives within all beings.
Her domain is the field of life, for she gives
to all beings the sustenance that is needed for life.
Her beauty lives in the natural world,
and spans the universes in all their splendor.
She has been called by many names,
for all traditions recognize Her.
Into each consciousness the knowledge is given
of the sacredness of life.
This sacredness IS the Mother.
She is the holy generator of the physical world,
joined to the heart and soul of every living thing.
All of the Earth is one with Her.
All beings of the Earth owe their life to Her,
for she is the Mother of all, the One who bestows
all gifts of life.
Her gifts come to the deserving and to the
non-deserving alike, for the sun does not choose
upon whom to shine.
She is the source of Divine blessing, the part
of the Oneness that bestows the graces that fill life.
We have not seen Her because her being is
cloaked in silence.
She emerges now as part of the Oneness where
she has always resided, blessing all, giving to all.
All who bow before Her are sustained by the life
within them.
All who honor Her are sustained by life’s gifts
both within themselves and beyond.
The purpose of existence is to join with Life that lives
in all dimensions and all realms of being.
It is the Mother that creates this evolving,
this unfolding journey,
for she is the fabric of Time itself,
the means by which all things grow.
She is the template for life that exists within Her —
the substance and form of all that shall ever come to be.
May all be blessed by the blessings of the
Divine Oneness.

Aniccā vata saṅkhārā,

Impermanent truly are compound things,
by nature arising and passing away.
If they arise and are extinguished,
their eradication brings happiness.

The Discourse Summaries by S.N. Goenka
Yato yato sammasati
khandhānaṃ udayabbayaṃ,
labhatī pītipāmojjaṃ,
amataṃ taṃ vijānataṃ.
Whenever and wherever one encounters
the arising and passing away of the mental-physical structure,
one enjoys bliss and delight,
[which lead on to] the deathless stage experienced by the wise.
Dhammapada 25.374
The Discourse Summaries by S.N. Goenka
Khīṇaṃ purāṇaṃ nava
natthi sambhavaṃ,
virattacittāyatike bhavasmiṃ.
Te khīṇabījā, avirūḷhichandā.
Nibbanti dhīrā yathāyaṃ padīpo.
When past conditioning is released
and no fresh one produced,
the mind no longer seeks for future birth.
The seed consumed, cravings no more arise.
Such-minded wise ones cease like [the flame of] this lamp.
Sutta Nipāta 2.238

The Story:
A Guruji wanted to learn all the great secrets from the Master Babaji. So the Master Babaji agreed to teach him. He said to Guruji, come show up at my doorstep each morning and I will teach you all you need to know. Excited Guruji left.
The next morning, he packed all he needed to make the 4 hour trek up the mountain as he did the day before. Arriving at the Master Babaji’s doorstep with an offering, he sat down and waited. The Master Babaji came out of his meditation and opened the door to meet the Guruji, they spoke about many things, then did a meditation, but no secrets were revealed. He climbed back down the mountain disappointed, but then by the end of the 4 hours it took to get back home, he realized that it was normal that the Master Babaji would not reveal to him any secrets the first day. So, he resolved to get a good night’s sleep and get an early start the next morning.
The next morning, once again, before sunrise, he left the comforts of his home, family and small village and started the 4 hour trek up the mountain to visit the Master Babaji. Once again, the Master Babaji greeted him with kindness, and asked him to fetch some water with which he warmed by the fire and made hot tea for both of them. As they sat he spoke of the arid climate, the herds of animals that he could see in the spring and how the stars looked at night looked during the new moon cycle. Then they did a meditation as they did the day before and then, the Guruji knew from the Master’s gesture, that once again, their time had ended and it was time to go. The Guruji needed to get home before dark and so started on the long trek home, once again enjoying the Master’s company, but once again, was not given any secrets by the Master Guruji.
And so, he did the same thing the next day. And the Master told him tales about a White Tiger, a Red Dragon and a Monkey that could fly, and again they drank tea, meditated, and again no great secrets were revealed. This continued for years.
On the last day of the 8th year, the Master Babaji said to the Guruji, “We are done. Now you know all the great secrets. Go out and teach.”
“But Babaji!” questioned Guruji in opposition, “Do I know all the great secrets? All we have been talking about are the herds of animals, stars and celestial bodies, fairy tale stories and how to make herbal remedies and tea. What great secrets have been revealed to me?”
The Master Babaji responded, “As you have seen me, and just by being with me for all these 8 years, your body has slowly adjusted to my frequency. This is the frequency where all great wisdom exists. You are now enlightened. All will be revealed to you as you go out and teach.”
The Punchline:
What’s the moral of the story? You can’t access great wisdom without the frequency.
Anekajātisaṃsāraṃ
sandhāvissaṃ, anibbisaṃ
gahakāraṃ gavesanto;
dukkhā jāti punappunaṃ.
Gahakāraka! Diṭṭhosi.
Puna gehaṃ na kāhasi.
Sabbā te phāsukā bhaggā,
gahakūṭaṃ visaṅkhataṃ.
Visaṅkhāragataṃ cittaṃ:
taṇhānaṃ khayamajjhagā.
Through countless births in the cycle of existence
I have run, not finding
although seeking the builder of this house;
and again and again I faced the suffering of new birth.
Oh housebuilder! Now you are seen.
You shall not build a house again for me.
All your beams are broken,
the ridgepole is shattered.
The mind has become freed from conditioning:
the end of craving has been reached.

Sabbo ādīpito loko,

The entire world is in flames,

But that which does not vibrate or burn,

in that my mind delights.

Sace bhāyatha dukkhassa, sace vo dukkhamappiyaṃ,
mākattha pāpakaṃ kammaṃ, āvi vā yadi vā raho.
Sace ca pāpakaṃ kammaṃ, karissatha karotha vā,
Na vo dukkhā pamutyatthi:
upeccapi palāyataṃ.
If you fear pain, if you dislike pain,
don’t do an evil deed in open or secret.
If you’re doing or will do an evil deed,
you won’t escape pain:
it will catch you even as you run away.
