More quotes by 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
The good shine from afar Like the snowy Himalayas. The bad don't appear Even when near, Like arrows shot into the night.
Gautama Buddha
Know well what holds you back, and what moves you forward
Gautama Buddha
If there be one righteous person, the rain falls for his sake.
Gautama Buddha
Believe nothing because it is written in books. Believe nothing because wise men say it is so. Believe nothing because it is religious doctrine. Believe it only because you yourself know it to be true.
Gautama Buddha
Hatred is never appeased by hatred in this world. By non-hatred alone is hatred appeased. This is a law eternal.
Gautama Buddha
Apply yourself to solitude. One who is given to solitude knows things as they really are.
Gautama Buddha
It is good to have companions when occasion arises, and it is good to be contented with whatever comes.
Gautama Buddha
Full of love for all things in the world, practicing virtue, in order to benefit others, this man alone is happy.
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
I, ever knowing the living beings Who tread the Path and those who do not In response to those who may be saved Preach to them a variety of dharmas, Each time having this thought: 'How may I cause the beings To contrive to enter the Unexcelled Path and quickly to perfect the Buddha-body?'
Gautama Buddha
Journey over, sorrowless, freed in every way, and with all bonds broken - for such a man there is no more distress.
Gautama Buddha
You are all Buddhas. There is nothing you need to achieve. Just open your eyes.
Gautama Buddha
Live contemplating the body. Contemplate internally and externally. Contemplate the origination of things in the body. Contemplate the dissolution of things in the body.
Gautama Buddha
Kindnessis giving others happiness.Compassionis removing others' bitterness.Joyis freeing others from suffering.
Gautama Buddha
There has to be evil so that good can prove its purity above it.
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
Therefore, be ye lamps unto yourselves, be ye a refuge to yourselves. Hold fast to the truth as a lamp hold fast as a refuge to the truth. Look not for refuge to anyone besides yourselves.
Gautama Buddha
Sustaining a loving heart, even for a moment, makes one a spiritual being.
Gautama Buddha
When you like a flower, you just pluck it. But when you love a flower, you water it daily.
Gautama Buddha
