You are all Buddhas. There is nothing you need to achieve. Just open your eyes.
Gautama Buddha
Your days pass like rainbows, like a flash of lightning, like a star at dawn. Your life is short. How can you quarrel?

He who is kind to animals heaven will protect.
Gautama Buddha
...One who possesses four qualities is deposited in heaven as if brought there. What four? Bodily good conduct, verbal good conduct, mental good conduct, and gratitude or thankfulness. One possessing these four qualities is deposited in heaven as if brought there.
Gautama Buddha
Don't give way to heedlessness or to intimacy with sensual delight - for a heedful person, absorbed in jhana, attains an abundance of ease.

When you come upon a path that brings benefit and happiness to all, follow this course as the moon journeys through the stars.
Gautama Buddha
I do not fight with the world but the world fights with me.
Gautama Buddha

Gautama Buddha
Pity arises when we are sorry for someone.Compassion is when we understand and help wisely.
Gautama Buddha
Don't keep searching for the truth, just let go of your opinions.
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
It is your mind that creates the world.
Gautama Buddha
There is no meditation without wisdom, and there is no wisdom without meditation. When a man has both meditation and wisdom, he is indeed close to nirvana.
Gautama Buddha
Do not believe anything on the mere authority of teachers or priests. Accept as true and as the guide to your life only that which accords with your own reason and experience, after thorough investigation. Accept only that which contributes to the well-being of yourself and others.
Gautama Buddha
When a man has pity on all living creatures then only is he noble.
Gautama Buddha
