selections from Pali Sources
"All that we are is the result of what we have thought: it is founded on our thoughts, it is made up of our thoughts. By oneself evil is done; by oneself one suffers; by oneself evil is left undone; by oneself one is purified. Purity and impurity belong to oneself; no one can purify another.
You yourself must make an effort; the Buddahs are only preachers. The thoughtful who enter the way are freed from the bondage of sin. He who does not rouse himself when it is time to rise, who, though young and strong is full of sloth, whose will and thoughts are weak, that lazy and idle man will never find the way to enlightenment. Strenuousness is the path of immortatlity, sloth the path of death. Those who are strenuous do not die; those who are slothful are as if dead already." _ the Blessed Sakyamuni
"He who looks for me, the true Tathagata, through any material form, or seeks me through any audible sound, that man has entered on an erroneous course, and shall never behold Tathagata." Vajracchedika
