More quotes by Gautama Buddha
Few cross over the river. Most are stranded on this side. On the riverbank they run up and down. But the wise man, following the way, Crosses over, beyond the reach of death. He leaves the dark way For the way of light.
Gautama Buddha
Regard this fleeting world like this: Like stars fading and vanishing at dawn, like bubbles on a fast-moving stream, like morning dewdrops evaporating on blades of grass, like a candle flickering in a strong wind... echoes, mirages, and phantoms, hallucinations, and like a dream.
Gautama Buddha
All that we are is the result of what we have thought it is founded on our thoughts it is made up of our thoughts. A man's life is the direct result of his thoughts... We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts we make the world.
Gautama Buddha
Treat others with respect. How you treat others will be how they treat you.
Gautama Buddha
One is not called noble who harms living beings. By not harming living beings one is called noble.
Gautama Buddha
Speak only endearing speech, speech that is welcomed. Speech, when it brings no evil to others, is pleasant.
Gautama Buddha
Few are those among men who have crossed over to the other shore, while the rest of mankind runs along the bank. However those who follow the principles of the well-taught Truth will cross over to the other shore, out of the dominion of Death, hard though it is to escape.
Gautama Buddha
The evils of the body are murder, theft, and adultery of the tongue, lying, slander, abuse and idle talk of the mind, covetousness, hatred and error.
Gautama Buddha
Your body is precious. It is our vehicle for awakening. Treat it with care.
Gautama Buddha
Anger will never disappear so long as thoughts of resentment are cherished in the mind.
Gautama Buddha
I knew that most people never see this reality because they attach to the material aspect of the world. Illusions of self and other fill their vision. I also realized there are those with little dust limiting their vision.
Gautama Buddha
Whoever counters the malicious with malice can never be free, but one who feels no maliciousness pacifies those who hate. Hate brings misery to humanity so the wise man knows no hatred.
Gautama Buddha
If anything is worth doing, do it with all your heart.
Gautama Buddha
Offend in neither word nor deed. Eat with moderation. Live in your heart. Seek the highest consciousness. Master yourself according to the law. This is the simple teaching of the awakened.
Gautama Buddha
Ennui has made more gamblers than avarice, more drunkards than thirst, and perhaps as many suicides as despair.
Gautama Buddha
Better than chanting a thousand words in a dead language is one soothing word spoken in the vernacular.
Gautama Buddha
Know what you do not know.
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
The shallow is easy to embrace, but the profound is difficult. To discard the shallow and seek the profound is the way of a person of courage.
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
