There is no enemy out
of your soul.The real enemies live inside yourself, they are anger, proud,
curvedness, greed, attachmentes and hate.
~ Lord Mahavir.
It is better to win over self than to win over a million enemies.
~ Lord Mahavir.
The soul comes alone
and goes alone, no one companies it and no one becomes its mate.
~ Lord Mahavir.
"Once when he
sat [in meditation]... they
cut his flesh... tore his hair... picked him up and... dropped him... the
Venerable One bore the pain."
~ Acaranga Sutra.
"Can you hold a
red-hot iron rod in your hand merely because some one wants you to do so? Then,
will it be right on your part to ask others to do the same thing just to
satisfy your desires? If you cannot tolerate infliction of pain on your body or mind by others' words
and actions, what right have you to do the same to others through your words
and deeds?"
~ Lord Mahavir.
A living body is not
merely an integration of limbs and flesh but it is the abode of the soul which
potentially has perfect perception (Anant-darshana), perfect knowledge
(Anant-jnana), perfect power (Anant-virya), and perfect bliss (Anant-sukha).
~ Lord Mahavir.
