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
Image
If you want to know the past, look at your present. If you want to know the future, look at your present.

Image
Like a caring mother holding and guarding the life of her only child, so with a boundless heart of loving kindness, hold yourself and all beings as your beloved children.

For those who are ready the door to the deathless state is open. If you have ears give up the conditions that bind you and enter in.

We begin to die from the moment we are born, for birth is the cause of death. The nature of decay is inherent in youth, the nature of sickness is inherent in health, in the midst of life we are verily in death.
Gautama Buddha
Image
There is pleasure And there is bliss. Forgo the first to possess the second. If you are happy At the expense of another man's happiness, You are forever bound.
Gautama Buddha
Image
An unreflective mind is a poor roof. Passion, like the rain, floods the house. But if the roof is strong, there is shelter. Whoever follows impure thoughts Suffers in this world and the next. In both worlds he suffers And how greatly.

Happiness comes when your work and words are of benefit to others.

Fools wait for a lucky day, but everyday is a lucky day for an industrious man.
Gautama Buddha
Image
I know what I gave them I don't know what they received.
Gautama Buddha
Image
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
Image
Silence the angry man with love. Silence the ill-natured man with kindness. Silence the miser with generosity. Silence the liar with truth.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Don't rely on logic alone, nor speculation. Don't infer or be deceived by appearances.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Freedom and happiness are found in the flexibility and ease with which we move through change.
Gautama Buddha
Image
What is the appropriate behavior for a man or a woman in the midst of this world, where each person is clinging to his piece of debris? What's the proper salutation between people as they pass each other in this flood?
Gautama Buddha
Image
Just as a tree, though cut down, can grow again and again if its roots are undamaged and strong, in the same way if the roots of craving are not wholly uprooted sorrows will come again and again
