Gautama Buddha

Rid of craving and without clinging, an expert in the study of texts, and understanding the right sequence of the words, he may indeed be called In his last body, Great in wisdom and a Great man.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Seeing the similarity to oneself, one should not use violence or have it used.
Gautama Buddha

Our life is shaped by our mind we become what we think. Suffering follows an evil thought as the wheels of a cart follow the oxen that draws it. Our life is shaped by our mind we become what we think. Joy follows a pure thought like a shadow that never leaves.
Gautama Buddha
Image
In the light of his vision that is the perspective that allows him to be grateful that things are not worse he has found his freedom and joy: his thoughts are peace, his words are peace and his work is peace.
Gautama Buddha

Cut down the forest, not just a tree. Out of the forest of desire springs danger. By cutting down both the forest of desire and the brushwood of longing, be rid of the forest, bhikkhus.
Gautama Buddha

Your mind is a powerful thing. When you filter it with positive thoughts, your life will start to change.

It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.
Gautama Buddha

A tree is a wonderful living organism which gives shelter, food, warmth and protection to all living things. It even gives shade to those who wield an axe to cut it down
Gautama Buddha
Image
Give the people - confidence. Give the people - delight. Give the people - hope. Give the people - the best.
Gautama Buddha
Image
I knew that most people never see this reality because they attach to the material aspect of the world. Illusions of self and other fill their vision. I also realized there are those with little dust limiting their vision.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Do not say anything harsh: what you have said will be said back to you.
Gautama Buddha
Image
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
Image
Freedom and happiness are found in the flexibility and ease with which we move through change.
Gautama Buddha
Image
'As I am, so are these. As are these, so am I.' Drawing the parallel to yourself, neither kill nor get others to kill.
Gautama Buddha
Image
He who is kind to animals heaven will protect.
Gautama Buddha
Image
The mind that perceives the limitation is the limitation.
Gautama Buddha
Image
But when one masters this wretched desire, which is so hard to overcome, then one's sorrows just drop off, like a drop of water off a lotus.
Gautama Buddha
Image
As an irrigator guides water to his fields, as an archer aims an arrow, as a carpenter carves wood, the wise shape their lives.
Gautama Buddha
