More quotes by Gautama Buddha
Foolish, ignorant people indulge in careless lives, whereas a clever man guards his attention as his most precious possession.
Gautama Buddha
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
If you determine your course With force or speed, You miss the way of the dharma. Quietly consider What is right and what is wrong. Receiving all opinions equally, Without haste, wisely, Observe the dharma.
Gautama Buddha
The Four Reliances. First, rely on the spirit and meaning of the teachings, not on the words Second, rely on the teachings, not on the personality of the teacher Third, rely on real wisdom, not superficial interpretation And fourth, rely on the essence of your pure Wisdom Mind, not on judgmental perceptions.
Gautama Buddha
To know and not to use is not yet to know!
Gautama Buddha
Whoever makes love grow boundless, and sets his mind for seeing the end of birth, his fetters are worn thin. If he loves even a single being, Good will follow. But the Noble One with compassionate heart for all mankind, generates abounding good.
Gautama Buddha
Just as the dawn is the forerunner of the arising of the sun, so true friendship is the forerunner of the arising of the noble eightfold path.
Gautama Buddha
Your actions are your only true belongings.
Gautama Buddha
Only he who crosses the stream of life wishes to know what is known as unknowable.
Gautama Buddha
Work out your own salvation. Do not depend on others.
Gautama Buddha
If you want to know the past, look at your present. If you want to know the future, look at your present.
Gautama Buddha
A tree is a wonderful living organism which gives shelter, food, warmth and protection to all living things. It even gives shade to those who wield an axe to cut it down
Gautama Buddha
Mind is everything. What we think, we become.
Gautama Buddha
Wherever there is possession of marks, there is fraud wherever there is no-possession of no-marks, there is no fraud. Hence the Tathagata is to be seen from no-marks as marks.
Gautama Buddha
Love lasts when the relationship comes first
Gautama Buddha
How long the night to the watchman, How long the road to the weary traveller, How long the wandering of many lives To the fool who misses the way.
Gautama Buddha
How does one stay mindful? Where feelings are known as they arise, known as they persist, known as they pass away. Thoughts are known as they arise, known as they persist, known as they pass away. Perceptions are known they arise, known as they persist, known as they pass away. This is how a monk stays awake.
Gautama Buddha
Wherever we go, wherever we remain, the results of our actions follow us.
Gautama Buddha
No matter what path you choose, really walk it.
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
