Virtue, good conduct, and morality--these practices are guided by fundamental principles. Developing my mind is my path to wisdom, which in turn leads to personal freedom. This also strengthens and controls my mind, helping me to maintain good conduct."The greatest achievement is selflessness. The greatest worth is self-mastery. The greatest quality is seeking to serve others. The greatest precept is continual awareness. The greatest medicine is the emptiness of everything. The greatest action is not conforming with the worlds ways. The greatest magic is transmuting the passions. The greatest generosity is non-attachment. The greatest goodness is a peaceful mind. The greatest patience is humility. The greatest effort is not concerned with results. The greatest meditation is a mind that lets go. The greatest wisdom is seeing through appearances."
-Atisha.
