"Students Sun Shine!''
Respectful dedication to the students of the world!

1+ BE PRESENT
The past is stale. The future really does not exist. Being present cuts through past problems and future anxieties.

2+ OBSERVE YOURSELF
But observe yourself gently. Do not judge yourself. Do not allow things to stay emanating.

3+ BE NOTHING
There is no anticipation quiet so keen as that created by emptiness, and no possibility so pure as that of the clean slate.

4+ FLEE ATTACHMENT
Attachment makes us blind. We identify ourselves with those around us and the things we believe in, and we cease to be open and generous towards creation.

5+ TRANSCEND SUFFERING
If we resent pain, we become negative, if we accept pain, suffering becomes transformed. It is difficult, it requires a sense of trust, but is ultimately healing.

6+ DROP YOUR ILLUSIONS
We are not in control of our lives. Neither should we desire to be.

7+ PREPARE FOR TRUTH
Knowledge is easily passed on. No one can pas on understanding, so prepare yourself to understand. Do not search for the truth, but unveil it through the fearless and simple exposure of error in yourself.

8+ CEASE SEPARATION
It is easy for the soul to panic and lose relationship with its essence. The separate self is touchy individual, quick to take offense. And this what makes us selfish. Do not confuse your physical body with your self, be one, be your essence.Your body is a mere tool.


9+ KNOW YOUR SOUL
Your soul is everything--mediating between your personality and your essence, and part of both. It is your window on reality and your experience of reality. Explore it so you can know who you truly are and realise that you are not a machine.

10+ FEAR NOTHING
We do not trust life and are fearful of different things, but we must learn that nothing can harm our essence. It is indestructible, and therefore we are indestructible.
