Shifu Jason
With complete control,
do not give in to anger.
The more you avoid harm,
the more suffering ceases.
---The Buddha, in The Dhammapada, verse 390---
Note: The translation of this verse by Venerable Sri Acharya Buddharakkhita reads:
Nothing is better for a holy man
than when he holds his mind back from what
is endearing. To the extent the intent to
harm wears away, to that extent does
suffering subside.
