More quotes by Gautama Buddha
No clouds gathered in the skies and the polluted streams became clear, whilst celestial music rang through the air and the angels rejoiced with gladness. With no selfish or partial joy but for the sake of the law they rejoiced, for creation engulfed in the ocean of pain was now to obtain release.
Gautama Buddha
By three things the wise person may be known. What three? He sees a shortcoming as it is. When he sees it, he tries to correct it. And when another acknowledges a shortcoming, the wise one forgives it as he should.
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.
Gautama Buddha
He who harms living beings is, for that reason, not an ariya (a Noble One) he who does not harm any living being is called an ariya.
Gautama Buddha
The gift of the Truth beats all other gifts. The flavour of the Truth beats all other tastes. The joy of the Truth beats all other joys, and the cessation of desire conquers all suffering
Gautama Buddha
The hunger of passions is the greatest disease.
Gautama Buddha
It is because I perceive the danger in the practice of mystic wonders, that I loath, abhor, and am ashamed thereof.
Gautama Buddha
It came to me that I should teach this truth for it is real happiness and joy. The cessation of suffering is possible.
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
Your mind is a powerful thing. When you filter it with positive thoughts, your life will start to change.
Gautama Buddha
Let no person think lightly of good, saying in his or her heart, it will not benefit me. As by the falling of raindrops a jar of water is filled, so the wise person becomes full of good, even though he or she collects it little by little.
Gautama Buddha
Household life is crowded and dusty life gone forth is wide open... Suppose I shave off my hair and beard, put on the ochre robe, and go forth from the home life into homelessness.
Gautama Buddha
O seeker! Rely on nothing until you want nothing.
Gautama Buddha
The secret of health for both mind and body is...live the present moment wisely and earnestly.
Gautama Buddha
Happiness follows sorrow, sorrow follows happiness, but when one no longer discriminates happiness and sorrow, a good deal and a bad deed, one is able to realize freedom.
Gautama Buddha
You are your own master, you make your own future. Therefore discipline yourself as a horse-dealer trains a thoroughbred
Gautama Buddha
It is better to spend one day contemplating the birth and death of all things than a hundred years never contemplating beginnings and endings.
Gautama Buddha
Believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true.
Gautama Buddha
Be your own lamps. Be your own shelters. Hang on to the truth as a lamp. Hang on to the truth as a refuge.
Gautama Buddha
All conditioned things are impermanent - when one sees this with wisdom, one turns away from suffering.
Gautama Buddha
