A Guide to Cultivating Your Inner Garden

Don't get angry, because anger is the most meaningless emotion. Instead of complaining or dwelling on difficulties, plant your own flowers and reap your own fruits. Don't compare yourself to others or force things; live your life to the fullest and find happiness in the present moment.

If everyone understands you, how truly ordinary are you? No matter how well you do, not everyone will like you. No matter how much you accomplish, not everyone will praise you. Only those who share your spiritual connection can truly understand your vast world. If they understand, there's no need for thousands of words. If they don't, thousands of words won't be enough.

The same mouth can speak different words;

The same eyes can have different perspectives;

The same heart can hold different thoughts.

Who doesn't talk behind others' backs, and who doesn't get talked about behind theirs? You don't need to be understood by everyone; just do your best. No matter how others treat you, treat yourself well. Be upright and honest, with a clear conscience. Live with integrity and without regrets.

In your own world, be mindful of yourself. In the world of others, let nature take its course. Just be yourself, and let time take care of the rest.

The Art of Self-Cultivation

Instead of trying to please others, it's better to cultivate yourself. When you are more cultivated, more things will please you! Disapproving of this and that and being dissatisfied with too many things often suggests a lack of inner cultivation. Remember that different genes and different environments lead to different perspectives.

We must learn to respect and accept differences, understanding the need to seek common ground while reserving our differences. This is the key to a higher level of self-cultivation. We live in a diverse world, and the connections between people are equally varied and colorful.

But one thing is eternal: every person you meet is either a friend or a teacher. You will either gain something or learn something. Whether happy or sad, each moment in our lives is unique and precious, meant to fulfill us and have its own unique meaning.
