Quote

To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.

Image
When one drives away the negligent through vigilance, he climbs the heights of wisdom, and can see the suffering masses. Serene, you look upon the lost like one that stands on a mountain sees those that stand upon the plain.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Craving brings pain craving brings fear. If you do not yield to craving, you will be free from pain and fear
Gautama Buddha
Image
What you have become is the result of what you have thought
Gautama Buddha
Image
Holding on to anger is like poisoning yourself and hoping someone else will die.
Gautama Buddha
Image
There is no more self-contradictory concept than that of idle thoughts. What gives rise to the perception of a whole world can hardly be called idle. Every thought we have either contributes to truth or to illusion.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Seeing the similarity to oneself, one should not use violence or have it used.
Gautama Buddha
Image
It is not life and wealth and power that enslave men, but the cleaving to life and wealth and power.
Gautama Buddha

By your own efforts waken yourself, watch yourself. And live joyfully.
Gautama Buddha
Image
You are far from the end of your journey. The way is not in the sky. The way is in the heart. See how you love.
Gautama Buddha
Image
By giving away food we get more strength. By bestowing clothing on others we gain more beauty. By donating abodes of purity and truth we acquire great treasures.
Gautama Buddha
Image
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
Image
Like a lovely flower full of color but lacking in fragrance, are the words of those who do not practice what they teach.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Until he has unconditional and unbiased love for all beings, man will not find peace.
Gautama Buddha
Image
I am a finger pointing to the moon. Don't look at me look at the moon.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Apply yourself to solitude. One who is given to solitude knows things as they really are.
Gautama Buddha
Image
As long as one feels that he is the doer, he cannot escape from the wheel of births.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Which do you think is more my friend, the water in the four great oceans or the tears that you have shed on this long way of taking birth again and again?
Gautama Buddha
Image
Of what I know, I have told you only a little. Why have I not told you the rest? Because it would not lead you to Nirvana.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Rather than continuing to seek the truth, simply let go of your views.
Gautama Buddha
Image
It is impossible for a man who is bogged to extricate another who is bogged.
Gautama Buddha
