More quotes by Gautama Buddha
What is the appropriate behavior for a man or a woman in the midst of this world, where each person is clinging to his piece of debris? What's the proper salutation between people as they pass each other in this flood?
Gautama Buddha
As a mountain is unshaken by the wind, so the heart of a wise person is unmoved by all the changes on this earth.
Gautama Buddha
These teachings are like a raft, to be abandoned once you have crossed the flood. Since you should abandon even good states of mind generated by these teachings, How much more so should you abandon bad states of mind!
Gautama Buddha
O men! you can take life easily but, remember, none of you can give life! So, have mercy, have compassion! And, never forget, that compassion makes the world noble and beautiful.
Gautama Buddha
Please, try to eat a bit less meat, a bit more veggies from today. Let it become a habit gradually until not to eat meat anymore. Then, observe the changing of the body and spirit after eating veggies, fruits and grains.
Gautama Buddha
To utter pleasant words without practicing them, is like a fine flower without fragrance.
Gautama Buddha
The less you have, the less you have to worry about.
Gautama Buddha
It is your mind that creates the world.
Gautama Buddha
A fool thinks it like honey so long as the bad deed does not bear fruit, but when it does bear fruit he experiences suffering.
Gautama Buddha
If a man can control his body and mind and thereby refrains from eating animal flesh and wearing animal products, I say he will really be liberated.
Gautama Buddha
Love the whole world as a mother loves her only child.
Gautama Buddha
Do not carry with you your mistakes. Do not carry your cares. Travel on alone. Like an elephant in the forest.
Gautama Buddha
There is no fire like passion: there is no evil and hatred.
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
Cut down the forest, not just a tree. Out of the forest of desire springs danger. By cutting down both the forest of desire and the brushwood of longing, be rid of the forest, bhikkhus.
Gautama Buddha
Establish your mind as necessary for knowledge and remembrance. Establish a mind free of grasping to anything.
Gautama Buddha
One should refrain from intoxicating drinks and drugs.
Gautama Buddha
Whatever grounds there are for making merit productive of a future birth, all these do not equal a sixteenth part of the liberation of mind by loving-kindness. The liberation of mind by loving-kindness surpasses them and shines forth, bright and brilliant.
Gautama Buddha
Live happily, not hating even those who are hostile. Live peacefully even amongst those that hate.
Gautama Buddha
Dispassion is the best of mental states. . . .
Gautama Buddha
