Image
Teach you? I cannot teach you. Go experience for yourself
Gautama Buddha
Image
Be a lamp to yourself. Be your own confidence. Hold on to the truth within yourself as to the only truth.
Gautama Buddha
Image
And he who has considered all the contrasts on this earth, and is no more disturbed by anything whatever in the world, the Peaceful One, freed from rage, from sorrow, and from longing, he has passed beyond birth and decay.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Every experience, no matter how bad it seems, holds within a blessing of some kind. The goal is to find it.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Believe nothing, No matter where you read it, Or who has said it, Not even if I have said it, Unless it agrees with your own reason And your own common sense.
Gautama Buddha
Image
He whose inflowing thoughts are dried up, who is unattached to food, whose dwelling place is an empty and imageless release - the way of such a person is hard to follow, like the path of birds through the sky.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Whatever an enemy might do to an enemy, or a foe to a foe, the ill-directed mind can do to you even worse.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Those which arise dependently are free of inherent existence.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Don't rely on logic alone, nor speculation. Don't infer or be deceived by appearances.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Like fresh milk a bad deed does not turn at once. It follows a fool scorching him like a smouldering fire.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Wakefulness is the way to life. The fool sleeps As if he were already dead, But the master is awake And he lives forever.
Gautama Buddha
Image
The judgment: You are now before Yama, King of the Dead. In vain will you try to...deny or conceal the evil deeds you have done. ... the mirror in which Yama seems to read your past is your own memory, and also his judgment is your own. It is you yourself who pronounce your own judgment.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Silence the angry man with love. Silence the ill-natured man with kindness. Silence the miser with generosity. Silence the liar with truth.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Look not for refuge to anyone beside yourself. Heed fast to the truth as a lamp.
Gautama Buddha
Image
That which goeth up must needs come down and that which is down must needs go up. But Brahma has ordained that the that that goeth up is seldom the same as the that that hath gone down.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Freed by full realization and at peace, the mind of such a man is at peace, and his speech and action peaceful. He has no need for faith who knows the uncreated, who has cut off rebirth, who has destroyed any opportunity for good or evil, and cast away all desire. He is indeed the ultimate man.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Your days pass like rainbows, like a flash of lightning, like a star at dawn. Your life is short. How can you quarrel?
Gautama Buddha
Image
Though through all his life a fool associates with a wise man, he yet understands not the Dharma, as the spoon, the flavor of soup.
Gautama Buddha
Image
If a traveller does not meet with one who is his better, or his equal, let him firmly keep to his solitary journey there is no companionship with a fool.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Foolish, ignorant people indulge in careless lives, whereas a clever man guards his attention as his most precious possession.
Gautama Buddha
