More quotes by Gautama Buddha
The mind is the source of happiness and unhappiness by what it chooses to compare the experience with. If it chooses to compare it to something worse then it will create happiness, gratitude and pride but if it chooses to compare it to something better then it will create unhappiness, bitterness and envy.
Gautama Buddha
The way to happiness is: keep your heart free from hate, your mind from worry. Live simply, give much. Fill your life with love. Do as you would be done by.
Gautama Buddha
Suffering, if it does not diminish love, will transport us to the furthest shore.
Gautama Buddha
Let us live most happily, free from hatred in the midst of the hateful Let us remain free from hatred in the midst of people who hate.
Gautama Buddha
If one is the master of oneself, one is the resort one can depend on therefore, one should control oneself of all.
Gautama Buddha
Those who are truly wise will remain unmoved by feelings of happiness and suffering, fame and disgrace, praise and blame, gain and loss.They will remain calm like the eye of a hurricane.
Gautama Buddha
There are three things that cannot long be hidden: the sun, the moon and the truth.
Gautama Buddha
When phenomena are individually analyzed as selfless, and what has been analyzed is meditated upon, that is the cause for attaining the fruit, nirvana. One does not go to peace through any other cause
Gautama Buddha
There has to be evil so that good can prove its purity above it.
Gautama Buddha
A wise man, recognizing that the world is but an illusion, does not act as if it is real, so he escapes the suffering.
Gautama Buddha
Give thanks for what had been given to you, However little. Be pure, never falter.
Gautama Buddha
Rely on the teaching, not on the person Rely on the meaning, not on the words Rely on the definitive meaning, not on the provisional Rely on your wisdom mind, not on your ordinary mind.
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
There are two obstacles to enlightenment: 1. Thinking you know. 2 Thinking you don't know.
Gautama Buddha
You are as the yellow leaf. The messengers of death are at hand. You are to travel far away. What will you take with you? You are the lamp To lighten the way. Then hurry, hurry. When your light shines.
Gautama Buddha
Sometimes it's better to be kind than to be right. We do not need an intelligent mind that speaks, but a patient heart that listens. You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger
Gautama Buddha
Look within, thou art the Buddha.
Gautama Buddha
Those who are pure in heart and single in purpose are able to understand the most supreme Way. It is like polishing a mirror, which becomes bright when the dust is removed. Remove your passions, and have no hankering.
Gautama Buddha
To live a single day and hear a good teaching is better than to live a hundred years without knowing such teaching.
Gautama Buddha
Pain in life is inevitable but suffering is not. Pain is what the world does to you, suffering is what you do to yourself [by the way you think about the 'pain' you receive]. Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional. [You can always be grateful that the pain is not worse in quality, quantity, frequency, duration, etc]
Gautama Buddha
