More quotes by Gautama Buddha
Regard this fleeting world like this: Like stars fading and vanishing at dawn, like bubbles on a fast-moving stream, like morning dewdrops evaporating on blades of grass, like a candle flickering in a strong wind... echoes, mirages, and phantoms, hallucinations, and like a dream.
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

Gautama Buddha
Happiness will never come to those who fail to appreciate what they already have.
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
Only he who crosses the stream of life wishes to know what is known as unknowable.
Gautama Buddha
Hatred does not cease in this world by hating, but by not hating this is an eternal truth.
Gautama Buddha
Besides the respect of the lives of human beings, all the animals and plants should be on the list too. That is the real humanitarianism.
Gautama Buddha
Pity arises when we are sorry for someone.Compassion is when we understand and help wisely.
Gautama Buddha
Solitude is happiness for one who is content, who has heard the Dhamma and clearly sees. Non-affliction is happiness in the world - harmlessness towards all living beings.
Gautama Buddha
You are all Buddhas. There is nothing you need to achieve. Just open your eyes.
Gautama Buddha
We are shaped by our thoughts we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.
Gautama Buddha
