More quotes by Gautama Buddha
Teach you? I cannot teach you. Go experience for yourself
Gautama Buddha
Man's troubles are rooted in extreme attention to senses, thoughts, and imagination. Attention should be focused internally to experience a quiet body and a calm mind.
Gautama Buddha
You are all Buddhas. There is nothing you need to achieve. Just open your eyes.
Gautama Buddha
Through vigilance, restraint and control the wise will construct and island that no flood will overcome.
Gautama Buddha
Be a light unto yourself.
Gautama Buddha
Beings are owners of their action, heirs of their action.
Gautama Buddha
Things are not what they appear to be: nor are they otherwise.
Gautama Buddha
Your worst enemy cannot harm you as much as your own unguarded thoughts. Develop the mind of equilibrium. You will always be getting praise and blame, but do not let either affect the poise of the mind: follow the calmness, the absence of pride.
Gautama Buddha
Understand that the body is merely the foam of a wave, the shadow of a shadow.
Gautama Buddha
Better than chanting a thousand words in a dead language is one soothing word spoken in the vernacular.
Gautama Buddha
There are two things that we should avoid, oh disciple! A life of pleasures, that is low and vain. A life of mortification, that is useless and vain.
Gautama Buddha
One is not a great one because one defeats or harms other living beings. One is so called because one refrains from defeating or harming other living beings.
Gautama Buddha
Drink deeply. Live in serenity and joy.
Gautama Buddha
Mind is everything. What we think, we become.
Gautama Buddha
Only he who crosses the stream of life wishes to know what is known as unknowable.
Gautama Buddha
The worlds originate so that truth may come and dwell therein.
Gautama Buddha
Tune as the sitthar, neither high nor low, and we will dance away the hearts of men.
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
All of you knowing now, Tthat the Buddhas, the Teachers of the Ages, In accord with what is peculiarly appropriate, have recourse to expedient devices, Need have no more doubts or uncertainties. Your hearts shall give rise to great joy, Since you know that you yourselves Shall become Buddhas.
Gautama Buddha
All the holy words you read and all the holy words you speak are as nothing if you do not act upon them. Even if you read little and say little but live the right way, forsaking craving, hatred and delusion, you will know the truth and find calmness and will show others the path.
Gautama Buddha
