Fight the Defilements & not the World!

Friends:
Fight the Defilements & not the World!

CONQUEROR
Even after having defeated a million men,
one is better off by conquering oneself.

VICTORY
Victory over self is superior to victory over others.
Winning self-control & you are forever in power!

UNDEFEATABLE
Neither a God, nor a Demon, nor a Devil, nor even Māha-Brahma
can undo the victory of one who has won self-control ....
