"All experience is preceded by the mind, led by the mind, made by the mind. If one speaks or acts with a pure mind, happiness follows like a shadow that never leaves."
-TheBuddha, in the Dhammapada.

Lama Dawa Zangpo’s Commentary:
We are sentient beings. This means we have minds, we think, we have awareness, and we act in the world as agents of ourselves. The Buddha said that all of our experience is created by our mind, through our intentions, and that when our mind is clean and pure and simple, the result is happiness. This is simple and in many ways obvious, but it does point us to the reality that we are responsible for ourselves, that how our mind acts and how it leads us is up to us by making conscious aware decisions and thinking in ways that are in harmony with the greater good for ourselves and for others.
