More quotes by Gautama Buddha
I teach about suffering and the way to end it
Gautama Buddha
As rain falls equally on the just and the unjust, do not burden your heart with judgments but rain your kindness equally on all.
Gautama Buddha
Whenever and wherever one encounters the arising and passing away of the mental-physical structure, one enjoys bliss and delight, which lead on to the deathless stage experienced by the wise
Gautama Buddha
Let them not do the slightest thing that the wise would later reprove.
Gautama Buddha
If you want to know the past, look at your present. If you want to know the future, look at your present.
Gautama Buddha
How wonderful! How wonderful! All things are perfect, exactly as they are.
Gautama Buddha
Besides the respect of the lives of human beings, all the animals and plants should be on the list too. That is the real humanitarianism.
Gautama Buddha
When I was a young man, near the beginning of my life, I looked around with true mindfulness and saw that all things are subject to decay.
Gautama Buddha
What you have become is the result of what you have thought
Gautama Buddha
There are five things which no one is able to accomplish in this world: first, to cease growing old when he is growing old second, to cease being sick third, to cease dying fourth, to deny dissolution when there is dissolution fifth, to deny non-being.
Gautama Buddha
The recollected go forth to lives of renunciation. They take no pleasure in a fixed abode. Like wild swans abandoning a pool, they leave one resting place after another.
Gautama Buddha
Of what I know, I have told you only a little. Why have I not told you the rest? Because it would not lead you to Nirvana.
Gautama Buddha
No one can escape death and unhappiness. If people expect only happiness in life, they will be disappointed.
Gautama Buddha
She who knows life flows, feels no wear or tear, needs no mending or repair.
Gautama Buddha
Only within our body, with its heart and mind, can bondage and suffering be found, and only here can we find true liberation.
Gautama Buddha
Good men and bad men differ radically. Bad men never appreciate kindness shown them, but wise men appreciate and are grateful. Wise men try to express their appreciation and gratitude by some return of kindness, not only to their benefactor, but to everyone else
Gautama Buddha
Wakefulness is the way to life. The fool sleeps As if he were already dead, But the master is awake And he lives forever.
Gautama Buddha
Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle. Happiness never decreases by being shared.
Gautama Buddha
If you cannot find a good companion to walk with, walk alone, like an elephant roaming the jungle. It is better to be alone than to be with those who will hinder your progress.
Gautama Buddha
Let a man overcome anger by love.
Gautama Buddha
