More quotes by Gautama Buddha
There are no chains like hate...dwelling on your brother's faults multiplies your own. You are far from the end of your journey.
Gautama Buddha
Live contemplating the body. Contemplate internally and externally. Contemplate the origination of things in the body. Contemplate the dissolution of things in the body.
Gautama Buddha
They are not following dharma who resort to violence to achieve their purpose. But those who lead others through nonviolent means, knowing right and wrong, may be called guardians of the dharma. Those who really seek the path to Enlightenment dictate terms to their mind. Then they proceed with strong determination.
Gautama Buddha
He who is kind to animals heaven will protect.
Gautama Buddha
Through vigilance, restraint and control the wise will construct and island that no flood will overcome.
Gautama Buddha
Let yourself be open and life will be easier. A spoon of salt in a glass of water makes the water undrinkable. A spoon of salt in a lake is almost unnoticed.
Gautama Buddha
Life is uncertain death is certain.
Gautama Buddha
Forgive and be free. Forget that you have forgiven and be freer.
Gautama Buddha
Do not believe anything on the mere authority of teachers or priests. Accept as true and as the guide to your life only that which accords with your own reason and experience, after thorough investigation. Accept only that which contributes to the well-being of yourself and others.
Gautama Buddha
A noble person is mindful and thankful for the favors he receives from others.
Gautama Buddha
By defilement of mind, beings are defiled by purification of mind, beings are purified.
Gautama Buddha
Our life is shaped by our mind we become what we think. Suffering follows an evil thought as the wheels of a cart follow the oxen that draws it. Our life is shaped by our mind we become what we think. Joy follows a pure thought like a shadow that never leaves.
Gautama Buddha
When a wise man is advised of his errors, he will reflect on and improve his conduct. When his misconduct is pointed out, a foolish man will not only disregard the advice but rather repeat the same error.
Gautama Buddha
I call wise man who, while he is innocent , endures insults and blows with a patience equal to its strength.
Gautama Buddha
The worlds originate so that truth may come and dwell therein.
Gautama Buddha
In the end these things matter most: How well did you love? How fully did you live? How deeply did you let go?
Gautama Buddha
Pain in life is inevitable but suffering is not. Pain is what the world does to you, suffering is what you do to yourself [by the way you think about the 'pain' you receive]. Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional. [You can always be grateful that the pain is not worse in quality, quantity, frequency, duration, etc]
Gautama Buddha
Beings are owners of their actions, heirs of their actions they originate from their actions, are bound to their actions, have their actions as their refuge. It is action that distinguishes beings as inferior and superior.
Gautama Buddha
The true master lives in truth, in goodness and restraint, non-violence, moderation, and purity.
Gautama Buddha
Let go the past, let go the future, and let go the present (front, back, middle). Crossing to the farther shore of existence, with mind released everywhere, do not further undergo birth and decay.
Gautama Buddha
