More quotes by Gautama Buddha
If you truly loved yourself, you could never hurt another.
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
Buddha is in our hearts. Buddha is in our mouths. Buddha is in our daily lives.
Gautama Buddha
What is evil? Killing is evil, lying is evil, slandering is evil, abuse is evil, gossip is evil, envy is evil, hatred is evil, to cling to false doctrine is evil all these things are evil. And what is the root of evil? Desire is the root of evil, illusion is the root of evil.
Gautama Buddha
I will not look at another's bowl intent on finding fault: a training to be observed.
Gautama Buddha
O seeker! Rely on nothing until you want nothing.
Gautama Buddha
Live contemplating the body through mindfulness. Live contemplating feelings. In this way you will be aware of and control wrong desires.
Gautama Buddha
Happy are those who have overcome their egos happy are those who have attained peace happy are those who have found the Truth.
Gautama Buddha
Better than a meaningless story of a thousand words is a single word of deep meaning which, when heard, produces peace.
Gautama Buddha
Follow the way of virtue. Follow the way joyfully through this world and on beyond.
Gautama Buddha
Like a beautiful flower, full of colour, but without scent, are wise words when spoken, but fruitless these words are when not carried out by the speaker.
Gautama Buddha
A dog is not considered a good dog because he is a good barker. A man is not considered a good man because he is a good talker.
Gautama Buddha
All of you knowing now, Tthat the Buddhas, the Teachers of the Ages, In accord with what is peculiarly appropriate, have recourse to expedient devices, Need have no more doubts or uncertainties. Your hearts shall give rise to great joy, Since you know that you yourselves Shall become Buddhas.
Gautama Buddha
Those who are free of resentful thoughts surely find peace.
Gautama Buddha
He who harms living beings is, for that reason, not an ariya (a Noble One) he who does not harm any living being is called an ariya.
Gautama Buddha
Wakefulness is the way to life. The fool sleeps As if he were already dead, But the master is awake And he lives forever.
Gautama Buddha
The evils of the body are murder, theft, and adultery of the tongue, lying, slander, abuse and idle talk of the mind, covetousness, hatred and error.
Gautama Buddha
There is no fire like passion, there is no shark like hatred, there is no snare like folly, there is no torrent like greed.
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
Teach you? I cannot teach you. Go experience for yourself
Gautama Buddha
