More quotes by Gautama Buddha
Awake. Be the witness of your thoughts. You are what observes, not what you observe.
Gautama Buddha
What you have become is the result of what you have thought
Gautama Buddha
Our problems are not solved by physical force, by hatred, by warOur problems are solved by loving kindness by gentleness, by joy
Gautama Buddha
One should not kill a living being, nor cause it to be killed, nor should one incite another to kill. Do not injure any being, either strong or weak, in the world.
Gautama Buddha
Beings are owners of their actions, heirs of their actions they originate from their actions, are bound to their actions, have their actions as their refuge. It is action that distinguishes beings as inferior and superior.
Gautama Buddha
Just as the dawn is the forerunner of the arising of the sun, so true friendship is the forerunner of the arising of the noble eightfold path.
Gautama Buddha
Giving the best to others are giving the best to us. The value of life is not based on how long we live. But, how much can we contribute to others in our society ?
Gautama Buddha
First of all there will appear to you, swifter than lightning, the luminous splendor of the colorless light of Emptiness, and that will surround you on all sides. ...Try to submerge yourself in that light, giving up all belief in a separate self, all attachment to your illusory ego.
Gautama Buddha
The one who wanders independent in the world, free from opinions and viewpoints, does not grasp them and enter into disputations and arguments. As the lotus rises on its stalk unsoiled by the mud and the water, so the wise one speaks of peace and is unstained by the opinions of the world.
Gautama Buddha
Love the whole world as a mother loves her only child.
Gautama Buddha
Destroy the man of wicked thoughts, Like a bamboo-tree with its fruit.
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
To become vegetarian is to step into the stream which leads to nirvana.
Gautama Buddha
To meditate is to listen with a receptive heart.
Gautama Buddha
For soon the body is discarded, Then what does it feel? A useless log of wood, it lies on the ground, Then what does it know? Your worst enemy cannot harm you As much as your own thoughts, unguarded. But once mastered, No one can help you as much, Not even your father or your mother.
Gautama Buddha
If there is a God, it is inconceivable that he would be concerned about my day to day affairs.
Gautama Buddha
Be it known that Men of dull faculties and slight wisdom, They who cling proudly to signs, Cannot believe in this Dharma. Now I, joyfully and fearlessly, In the midst of the bodhisattvas Frankly casting aside my expedient devices, Merely preach the Unexcelled Path.
Gautama Buddha
Realizing the doctrine of dependent-arising, the wise do not at all partake of extreme views
Gautama Buddha
Mindfulness of the body leads to nirvana.
Gautama Buddha
But if you do not find an intelligent companion, a wise and well-behaved person going the same way as yourself, then go on your way alone, like a king abandoning a conquered kingdom, or like a great elephant in the deep forest.
Gautama Buddha
