Few cross over the river. Most are stranded on this side. On the riverbank they run up and down. But the wise man, following the way, Crosses over, beyond the reach of death. He leaves the dark way For the way of light.

More quotes by Gautama Buddha
Do not accept anything simply because it has been said by your teacher, or because it has been written in your sacred books, or because it has been believed by many, or because it has been handed down by your ancestors. Accept and live only according to what will enable you to see truth face to face.
Gautama Buddha
Just as a candle cannot burn without fire, men cannot live without a spiritual life.
Gautama Buddha
Release old concepts and energies that keep you in self-punishment patterns. Release old stories and create from a place of love and self-validation. You are worth it!
Gautama Buddha
Follow not after the vain, understand the ills of sense pleasures. One who is vigilant and meditative, obtains deep joy.
Gautama Buddha
All conditioned things are impermanent - when one sees this with wisdom, one turns away from suffering.
Gautama Buddha
Journey over, sorrowless, freed in every way, and with all bonds broken - for such a man there is no more distress.
Gautama Buddha
A dog is not considered a good dog because he is a good barker. A man is not considered a good man because he is a good talker.
Gautama Buddha
And he who lives a hundred years, idle and weak, a life of one day is better if a man has attained firm strength.
Gautama Buddha
Those who are free of resentful thoughts surely find peace.
Gautama Buddha
I will not look at another's bowl intent on finding fault: a training to be observed.
Gautama Buddha
Just as a tree, though cut down, can grow again and again if its roots are undamaged and strong, in the same way if the roots of craving are not wholly uprooted sorrows will come again and again
Gautama Buddha
With gentleness overcome anger. With generosity overcome meanness. With truth overcome deceit.
Gautama Buddha
It is because I perceive the danger in the practice of mystic wonders, that I loath, abhor, and am ashamed thereof.
Gautama Buddha
The worlds originate so that truth may come and dwell therein.
Gautama Buddha
If a viper lives in your room and you wish to have a peaceful sleep, you must first chase it out.
Gautama Buddha
True love is born from understanding.
Gautama Buddha
As a water bead on a lotus leaf, as water on a red lily, does not adhere, so the sage does not adhere to the seen, the heard, or the sensed.
Gautama Buddha
Giving the best to others are giving the best to us. The value of life is not based on how long we live. But, how much can we contribute to others in our society ?
Gautama Buddha
Look within, thou art the Buddha.
Gautama Buddha
Only those who go where few have gone can see what few have seen.
