More quotes by Gautama Buddha
The greatest action is not conforming with the worlds ways.
Gautama Buddha
It is good to have companions when occasion arises, and it is good to be contented with whatever comes.
Gautama Buddha
I will purify my bodily actions through repeated reflection. I will purify my verbal actions through repeated reflection. I will purify my mental actions through repeated reflection. That's how you should train yourself.
Gautama Buddha
All tremble at violence all fear death. Putting oneself in the place of another, one should not kill nor cause another to kill.
Gautama Buddha
Times of luxury do not last long, but pass away very quickly nothing in this world can be long enjoyed.
Gautama Buddha
People cleave to their worldly possessions and selfish passions so blindly as to sacrifice their own lives for them. They are like a child who tries to eat a little, honey smeared on the edge of a knife. The amount is by no means sufficient to appease his appetite, but he runs the risk of wounding his tongue.
Gautama Buddha
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.
Gautama Buddha
Want what you have and you will always get what you want.
Gautama Buddha
One may desire a spurious respect and precedence among one's fellow monks, and the veneration of outsiders. Both monks and laity should think it was my doing. They should accept my authority in all matters great or small. This is a fool's way of thinking. His self-seeking and conceit just increase.
Gautama Buddha
A jug fills drop by drop.
Gautama Buddha
Good men and bad men differ radically. Bad men never appreciate kindness shown them, but wise men appreciate and are grateful. Wise men try to express their appreciation and gratitude by some return of kindness, not only to their benefactor, but to everyone else
Gautama Buddha
Here even the various mind-pleasing blossoming flowers, and attractive shining supreme golden houses, have no inherently existent maker at all. They are set up through the power of thought. Through the power of conceptuality the world is established
Gautama Buddha
I do not perceive even one other thing, O monks, that when undeveloped and uncultivated entails such great suffering as the mind. The mind when undeveloped and uncultivated entails great suffering.
Gautama Buddha
After enlightenment, the laundry.
Gautama Buddha
Dispassion is the best of mental states. . . .
Gautama Buddha
Sandalwood, tagara, lotus, jasmine - the fragrance of virtue is unrivalled by such kinds of perfume.
Gautama Buddha
Before you've seen it, and when you first see it, it is the greatest thing afterwards, it is ordinary.
Gautama Buddha
May we live like the lotus, at home in muddy water.
Gautama Buddha
A noble person is mindful and thankful for the favors he receives from others.
Gautama Buddha
Embrace nothing: If you meet the Buddha, kill the Buddha. If you meet your father, kill your father. Only live your life as it is, Not bound to anything.
Gautama Buddha
