Jing Si Aphorism - Inspirational Wisdom by Dharma Master Cheng Yen

When walking, as we step one foot forward,
we lift the other foot up.
In the same way, we should let go of yesterday
and focus on today.

***

The future is an illusion,
the past is a memory.
Hold on to the goodness that is
in our heart at this present moment
and take care to fulfill the duties that we have at hand.

***

Over time, we can
build great character,
achieve great success,
and cultivate great virtue.

***

While working, learn ;
while learning, awaken
to the many truth of life.

***

Use wisdom to contemplate the meaning of life.
Use resolve to organize the time you are given.
