السيطرة على التنفس تجلب التوتر
وعندما تبالغ في بذل المجهود يكون الارهاق
اغلق فمك
واضبط حواسك
تحكم في حدتك
بسط مشاكلك
كن واحدا مع تراب الأرض
هذه هي الوحدة الأولى
*
من يحقق هذه الحالة
لا يهمه الأصدقاء ولا الأعداء
ولا يهتم بالطيب ولا بالخبيث
ولا بالمجد أو المهانة
تلك أعلى حالات الانسان

منتبهون كأنهم يعبرون جدولاً مليئاً بالثلج في الشتاء
حريصون كأنهم رجال يحدق بهم الخطر
مهذبون كأنهم ضيوف في زيارة
يذعنون كأنهم ثلج على وشك الذوبان
بسطاء كأنهم كتلة من الخشب الخام
مجدفون كأنهم كهوف
معتمون كأنهم مستنقع طين

against war
Weapons are unhappy tools,
not chosen by thoughtful people,
to be used only when there is no choice,
and with a calm, still mind,
without enjoyment.
To enjoy using weapons
is to enjoy killing people,
and to enjoy killing people
is to lose your share in the common good. ...
