Mind is the forerunner of (all good) states.
Mind is chief, and they are mind-made.
If one speaks or acts with a pure mind,
happiness follows as one’s own shadow that never leaves.

මනෝ පුබ්බඞ්ගමා ධම්මා මනෝ සෙට්ඨා මනෝමයා
මනසා චේ පසන්නේන භාසතී වා කරෝති වා
තතෝ නං සුඛමන්වේති ජායාව අනපායිනී.

All that man experiences springs out of his thoughts. If his thoughts are good, the words and the deeds will also be good. The result of good thoughts , words and deeds will be happiness. This happiness will never leave the person whose thoughts are good. Happiness will always follow him like his shadow that never leaves him.
