More quotes by Gautama Buddha
I teach about suffering and the way to end it
Gautama Buddha
One is not low because of birth nor does birth make one holy. Deeds alone make one low, deeds alone make one holy.
Gautama Buddha
I will purify my bodily actions through repeated reflection. I will purify my verbal actions through repeated reflection. I will purify my mental actions through repeated reflection. That's how you should train yourself.
Gautama Buddha

Gautama Buddha
Not even death can wipe out our good deeds
Gautama Buddha
The good shine from afar Like the snowy Himalayas. The bad don't appear Even when near, Like arrows shot into the night.
Gautama Buddha
Be lamps unto yourselves be your own confidence. Hold truth within yourselves.
Gautama Buddha
Learn this from the waters: in mountain clefts and chasms, loud gush the streamlets, but great rivers flow silently.

Gautama Buddha
All of you knowing now, Tthat the Buddhas, the Teachers of the Ages, In accord with what is peculiarly appropriate, have recourse to expedient devices, Need have no more doubts or uncertainties. Your hearts shall give rise to great joy, Since you know that you yourselves Shall become Buddhas.
Gautama Buddha
With gentleness overcome anger. With generosity overcome meanness. With truth overcome deceit.
Gautama Buddha
Wonder of wonders! Intrinsically all living beings are Buddhas, endowed with wisdom and virtue, but because men's minds have become inverted through delusive thinking they fail to perceive this.
Gautama Buddha
There are two obstacles to enlightenment: 1. Thinking you know. 2 Thinking you don't know.
Gautama Buddha
The four catagories of existance, non-existance, both existance and non-existance, and neither existance nor non-existance, are spiderwebs among spiderwebs which can never take hold of the enormous bird of reality
Gautama Buddha
Whatever an enemy might do to an enemy, or a foe to a foe, the ill-directed mind can do to you even worse.
Gautama Buddha
