Image
We are shaped by our thoughts we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.
Gautama Buddha
Image
How does one stay mindful? Where feelings are known as they arise, known as they persist, known as they pass away. Thoughts are known as they arise, known as they persist, known as they pass away. Perceptions are known they arise, known as they persist, known as they pass away. This is how a monk stays awake.
Gautama Buddha
Image
It is within this fathoms-long carcass, with its mind and its notions, that I declare there is the world, the origin of the world, the cessation of the world and the path leading to the cessation of the world.
Gautama Buddha

Gautama Buddha
Image
It is good to have companions when occasion arises, and it is good to be contented with whatever comes.

Gautama Buddha
Image
If a man should conquer in battle a thousand and a thousand more, and another should conquer himself, his would be the greater victory, because the greatest of victories is the victory over oneself.
Gautama Buddha
Image
We begin to die from the moment we are born, for birth is the cause of death. The nature of decay is inherent in youth, the nature of sickness is inherent in health, in the midst of life we are verily in death.
Gautama Buddha
Image
There are these two kinds of gifts: a gift of material things & a gift of the Dhamma. Of the two, this is supreme: a gift of the Dhamma.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle. Happiness never decreases by being shared.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Establish your mind as necessary for knowledge and remembrance. Establish a mind free of grasping to anything.
Gautama Buddha
Image
How long the night to the watchman, How long the road to the weary traveller, How long the wandering of many lives To the fool who misses the way.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Let a man overcome anger by love.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Everything is based on mind, is led by mind, is fashioned by mind. If you speak and act with a pure mind, happiness will follow you, as a shadow clings to a form.
Gautama Buddha
