Image
A wise man, recognizing that the world is but an illusion, does not act as if it is real, so he escapes the suffering.
Gautama Buddha
Image
First of all there will appear to you, swifter than lightning, the luminous splendor of the colorless light of Emptiness, and that will surround you on all sides. ...Try to submerge yourself in that light, giving up all belief in a separate self, all attachment to your illusory ego.
Gautama Buddha
Image
The more completely we give of ourselves, the more completely the world gives back to us.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Life is dear to all beings, they have the right to live the same that we do.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Radiate boundless love towards the entire world - above, below, and across - unhindered, without ill will, without enmity.
Gautama Buddha
Image
The wise have mastered body, word, and mind. They are the true masters.
Gautama Buddha
Image
The greatest impurity is ignorance. Free yourself from it. Be pure.
Gautama Buddha
Image
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
Image
Ennui has made more gamblers than avarice, more drunkards than thirst, and perhaps as many suicides as despair.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Bring your mind to noble silence. Unify your mind in noble silence. Concentrate your mind in noble silence... Enter into rapture and pleasure born of silence derived of concentration and awareness that is free from thought and fabrication.
Gautama Buddha
Image
One way leads to acquisition, the other leads to nirvana. Realising this a monk should take no pleasure in the respect of others, but should devote himself to solitude.
Gautama Buddha
Image
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
Image
Believe not because some old manuscripts are produced, believe not because it is your national belief, believe not because you have been made to believe from you childhood, but reason truth out, and after you have analyzed it, then if you find it will do good to one and all, believe it, live up to it and help others live up to it.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Doing the good deeds is like the grass in the garden. You don't see its growth. But, it does by days. Doing the wicked deeds is like the hone. You don't see its damage. But, it does by days.
Gautama Buddha
Image
What you have become is the result of what you have thought
Gautama Buddha
Image
A man should first direct himself in the way he should go. Only then should he instruct others.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Before you've seen it, and when you first see it, it is the greatest thing afterwards, it is ordinary.
Gautama Buddha
Image
There are two obstacles to enlightenment: 1. Thinking you know. 2 Thinking you don't know.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Just as the bee takes the nectar and leaves without damaging the color or scent of the flowers, so should the sage act in a village.
Gautama Buddha
Image
All rising to great places is by a winding stair.
