Gautama Buddha
People cleave to their worldly possessions and selfish passions so blindly as to sacrifice their own lives for them. They are like a child who tries to eat a little, honey smeared on the edge of a knife. The amount is by no means sufficient to appease his appetite, but he runs the risk of wounding his tongue.
Gautama Buddha
If you want to understand the causes that existed in the past, look at the results as they are manifested in the present. And if you want to understand what results will be manifested in the future, look at the causes that exist in the present.
Gautama Buddha
You only lose that which you cling to.
Gautama Buddha
Only those who go where few have gone can see what few have seen.
Gautama Buddha
Those who by form did see me and those who followed me by voice. Wrong the efforts they engaged in, those people will not see me.
Gautama Buddha
When phenomena are individually analyzed as selfless, and what has been analyzed is meditated upon, that is the cause for attaining the fruit, nirvana. One does not go to peace through any other cause
Gautama Buddha
