THE WAY TO PAINLESS LIFE

This is the way to freedom from care and pain:
So think as if your every thought were to be etched in fire upon the sky for all and everything to
see, for so, in truth, it is .

So speak as if the world entire were but a single ear intent on hearing what you say. And so, in
truth , it is .
So do as if your every deed were to recoil upon your heads. And so, in truth, it does.
So wish as if you were the wish. And so, in truth, you are.
So live as if your god Himself had need of you His life to live. And so, in truth, He does.
