food for thought

"A written regulation is only the surface and a fragment of the principle of discipline.  The essence of discipline is found within ones conscience.  True strength of virtue is best cultivated with a spirit of self-sacrifice and actions carried out when there are no eyes to see them.  Therefore, daily life and training should be led by ones own conviction and subjective attitude, seeking neither recognition, praise, nor return for what has been done, but making practice be about Silent Work."
