More quotes by Gautama Buddha
Do not interrogate silence because silence is mute do not expect anything from the gods, nor should you try to bribe them with gifts, because it is in ourselves that we must look for liberation.
Gautama Buddha
Seeker, empty the boat, lighten the load, be free of craving and judgment and hatred, and feel the joy of the way.
Gautama Buddha
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.
Gautama Buddha
It is our own thoughts that lead us into trouble, not other people.
Gautama Buddha
By defilement of mind, beings are defiled by purification of mind, beings are purified.
Gautama Buddha
Treat others with respect. How you treat others will be how they treat you.
Gautama Buddha
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
Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill.
Gautama Buddha
Know well what holds you back, and what moves you forward
Gautama Buddha
All beings are not only the parents in the past. They will become the Buddha in the future. If you free their lives, you are Buddha.
Gautama Buddha
You are what you think about.
Gautama Buddha
To force oneself to believe and to accept a thing without understanding is political, and not spiritual or intellectual.
Gautama Buddha
Water surrounds the lotus flower, but does not wet its petals.
Gautama Buddha
All composite things decay. Strive diligently.
Gautama Buddha
Comparing oneself to others in such terms as Just as I am so are they, just as they are so am I, he should neither kill nor cause others to kill.
Gautama Buddha
Those who are free of resentful thoughts surely find peace.
Gautama Buddha
Beware of the anger of the mouth. Master your words. Let them serve truth.
Gautama Buddha
The recollected go forth to lives of renunciation. They take no pleasure in a fixed abode. Like wild swans abandoning a pool, they leave one resting place after another.
Gautama Buddha
There is no more self-contradictory concept than that of idle thoughts. What gives rise to the perception of a whole world can hardly be called idle. Every thought we have either contributes to truth or to illusion.
Gautama Buddha
Dispassion is the best of mental states. . . .
Gautama Buddha
