The Buddha taught: Conquer anger ... - Dhamma by Ajahn Jayasāro
The Buddha taught:
“Conquer anger with loving-kindness;
Conquer the wicked by goodness;
Conquer the stingy by generosity;
Conquer the liar by speaking the truth”
If we seek victory at any cost, then
we lose our principles. If we lose our
principles, we lose ourself.
