Good and Bad Situation
There are no good or bad situations.
Good and bad arise from our minds.
The foolish man subdues the situation, not his mind.
The wise person works on his mind, not the situation.
If the mind has been tamed, does the situation still have substance?"

"Grasping the basic emptiness of the situation,
we can act from our true nature on the essentials.
If we are unmoved by circumstances,
we will be able to shape circumstances."
