Realise that this world is impermanent, that nations are unsafe and unstable, that the four elements cause suffering and are empty, and that there is no self within the five skandhas; that all things that arise must change and decline, and that they are but false appearances without any stable essence; that the mind is the source of evil, and that form is a congregation of wrongdoings.
Contemplate all of this, and gradually you will disentangle yourself from the cycle of birth and death.
(Not I say one...read this from a Buddhism book- Buddhism Pure and Simple, by Hsing Yun. Those were Buddha's words. More things to come on and off as I read)
