The Victory Within

Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! Victory breeds hatred and ill-will, Defeat brings suffering and pain, Those who live in this passing world, Taste triumph and loss again and again. To conquer oneself is far better, The ultimate victory, supreme and true, Conquering oneself is a nobler path, Than defeating others, whatever you do. No one can ever conquer or tame, The one who has mastered their own soul, The pure conqueror, unstained by the world, Lives in stillness, peaceful and whole, Leaving all victory and defeat behind.
