“To think bad thoughts is the easiest thing in the world. If you leave your mind to itself it will spiral you down into ever increasing unhappiness. To think good thoughts, however, requires effort. This is one of the things that training and discipline are about. So teach your mind to dwell on sweet perfumes, the touch of silk, tender rain drops against the shoji, the tranquility of dawn, then at length you won’t have to make such an effort and you will be of value to yourself.”
