Quote

You are as the yellow leaf. The messengers of death are at hand. You are to travel far away. What will you take with you? You are the lamp To lighten the way. Then hurry, hurry. When your light shines.

More quotes by Gautama Buddha

Image
Let us live in joy, never falling sick like those who hate us. Let us live in freedom, without hatred even among those who hate.
Gautama Buddha
Image
The good shine from afar Like the snowy Himalayas. The bad don't appear Even when near, Like arrows shot into the night.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Learn this from the waters: in mountain clefts and chasms, loud gush the streamlets, but great rivers flow silently.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Believe nothing, No matter where you read it, Or who has said it, Not even if I have said it, Unless it agrees with your own reason And your own common sense.
Gautama Buddha
Image
There is no fire like passion. There are no chains like hate. Illusion is a net, Desire is a rushing river.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Just as the great oceans have but one taste, the taste of salt, so too there is but one taste fundamental to all true teachings of the way, and this is the taste of freedom.
Gautama Buddha
Image
The eating of meat extinguishes the seed of Great Kindness.
Gautama Buddha

Treat others with respect. How you treat others will be how they treat you.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Noble friends and companions are the whole of the holy life.
Gautama Buddha
Image
The one who wanders independent in the world, free from opinions and viewpoints, does not grasp them and enter into disputations and arguments. As the lotus rises on its stalk unsoiled by the mud and the water, so the wise one speaks of peace and is unstained by the opinions of the world.
Gautama Buddha
Image
If you are poor, live wisely. If you have riches, live wisely. It is not your station in life but your heart that brings blessings.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Men who are addicted to the passions are like the torch-carrier running against the wind his hands are sure to be burned.
Gautama Buddha
Image
The greatest victory is the one over oneself.
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
Image
The true master lives in truth, in goodness and restraint, non-violence, moderation, and purity.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Work out your own salvation. Do not depend on others.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Follow the way of virtue. Follow the way joyfully through this world and on beyond.
Gautama Buddha
Image
All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If people speak or act with evil thoughts, pain follows them. If people speak or act with pure thoughts, happiness follows them, like a shadow that never leaves them.
Gautama Buddha
Image
A noble person is mindful and thankful for the favors he receives from others.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Attachment leads to suffering.
