Gautama Buddha
Life is easy For the man who is without shame, Impudent as a crow, A vicious gossip, Vain, meddlesome, dissolute. But life is hard For the man who quietly undertakes The way of perfection, With purity, detachment and vigor. He sees light.
Gautama Buddha
Stay centered, do not overstretch. Extend from your center, return to your center.
Gautama Buddha
Be a light unto yourself.
Gautama Buddha
In exactly the same way, ... scatter your body, your feeling, your perception, your predispositions, your discriminative consciousness, break them up, knock them down, cease to play with them, apply yourself to the destruction of craving for them. Verily, ... the extinction of craving is Nirvana.
Gautama Buddha
For one who is a learner and who has not yet come to master their mind, but who dwells aspiring for peace from that which binds, making it a matter concerning himself, I know of no other thing as helpful as giving close attention to the mind.
Gautama Buddha
Let them not do the slightest thing that the wise would later reprove.
Gautama Buddha
Believe, meditate, see. Be harmless, be blameless. Awake to the law. And from all sorrows free yourself.
Gautama Buddha
Happiness never decreased by being shared.
Gautama Buddha
He who wrongs the innocent must bear the fruit of his act, like dust flung against the wind.
Gautama Buddha
Just as a tree, though cut down, sprouts up again if its roots remain uncut and firm, even so, until the craving that lies dormant is rooted out, suffering springs up again and again.
Gautama Buddha
