Gautama Buddha
Destroy the man of wicked thoughts, Like a bamboo-tree with its fruit.
Gautama Buddha
There is, Oh Monks, a not-born, a not-become, a not-made, a not-compounded. Monks, if that unborn, not-become, not-made, not-compounded were not, there would be no escape from this here that is born, become, made and compounded.

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
A wrong action may not bring its reaction at once, even as fresh milk turns not sour at once: like a smouldering fire concealed under ashes it consumes the wrongdoer, the fool.
Gautama Buddha
Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.
Gautama Buddha
Analyzing through special insight and realizing the lack of inherent existence constitute understanding of the signless.
Gautama Buddha
If by leaving a small pleasure one sees a great pleasure, let a wise man leave the small pleasure, and look to the great.
Gautama Buddha
First of all there will appear to you, swifter than lightning, the luminous splendor of the colorless light of Emptiness, and that will surround you on all sides. ...Try to submerge yourself in that light, giving up all belief in a separate self, all attachment to your illusory ego.
Gautama Buddha
How wonderful! How wonderful! All things are perfect, exactly as they are.
Gautama Buddha
Live contemplating the body. Contemplate internally and externally. Contemplate the origination of things in the body. Contemplate the dissolution of things in the body.
Gautama Buddha
