Consider also:

  1. “this is in Buddhism accounted the true beginning of all righteousness,-unselfishness that gives all, whilst knowing yet that it shall never reap the gain”
  2. “it is its teaching of the Law of Righteousness, its exposition of the mechanism of moral retribution, that entitles it to serious consideration; by this alone it can be rightly judged, its message gathered and its purpose seen”
  3. “Good is that which brings us nearer to Release”
  4. “the great cure for every evil is the removal of all taint of ignorance from all our thoughts”
  5. “what evil or what cruelty of man but has sprung only from that chiefest of illusions, Self, from that sad separateness of thought”
