Stand in the Lake and know peace. Reject the ways which have been pointed out for you to travel; instead, let your own inner vision guide your footsteps. Simplify your desires, but fulfil your needs. Remember to keep your sword in its sheath until needed, so only you will know the sharpness of its edge.

Lake is pure and receptive, instantly reflecting the mountains in its clear surface as it lies nestled in their arms. The Lake is untroubled and serene, the perfect example of self-control as it ignores the temptation of the outside world, content to caress the shore and whisper to the pines.
