A Quote by Leon Pinsker

Until then, the nations must narrow their aspirations to achieve a tolerable modus vivendi.

When? At this time, while you have all the opportunities, if you do not do your best to achieve the pure, stainless path to enlightenment when will you do it?

If, in this life, you don't achieve renunciation, bodhicitta and sunyata, as well as the two stages of tantra, when will you? When will you have these attainments? When will you become enlightened? When will you perform perfect work for sentient beings?

Discipline is all about cultivating powerful habits that become part of your lifestyle.
