More quotes by Gautama Buddha
Good men and bad men differ radically. Bad men never appreciate kindness shown them, but wise men appreciate and are grateful. Wise men try to express their appreciation and gratitude by some return of kindness, not only to their benefactor, but to everyone else
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
Find out for yourself what is truth, what is real. Discover that there are virtuous things and there are non-virtuous things. Once you have discovered for yourself give up the bad and embrace the good.
Gautama Buddha
Stay centered, do not overstretch. Extend from your center, return to your center.
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
Which do you think is more my friend, the water in the four great oceans or the tears that you have shed on this long way of taking birth again and again?
Gautama Buddha
One of his students asked Buddha, Are you the Messiah? No, answered Buddha. Then are you a healer? No, Buddha replied. Then are you a teacher? the student persisted. No, I am not a teacher. Then what are you? asked the student exasperated. I am awake, Buddha replied.
Gautama Buddha
The hunger of passions is the greatest disease.
Gautama Buddha
Just as the great oceans have but one taste, the taste of salt, so too there is but one taste fundamental to all true teachings of the way, and this is the taste of freedom.
Gautama Buddha
Whatsoever misfortunes there are Here in this world or in the next, They all have their root in Ignorance And in the accumulation of Longing and Desire.
Gautama Buddha
Our good and bad deeds follow us almost like a shadow.
Gautama Buddha
Like a beautiful flower, full of colour, but without scent, are wise words when spoken, but fruitless these words are when not carried out by the speaker.
Gautama Buddha
Sometime, somewhere you take something to be the truth. But if you cling to it too strongly, then even when the truth comes in person and knocks on your door, you will not open it.
Gautama Buddha
Hatred is never appeased by hatred in this world. By non-hatred alone is hatred appeased. This is a law eternal.
Gautama Buddha
Pain is the outcome of sin.
Gautama Buddha
The more fully we give our energy, the more it returns to us.
Gautama Buddha
Cultivation of meditative stability alone, will not destroy the discrimination of inherent existence. Afflictive emotions can return, making all sorts of disturbances
Gautama Buddha
The mind is pure and luminous by nature. It is defiled only by adventitious thoughts and emotions
Gautama Buddha
To meditate is to listen with a receptive heart.
Gautama Buddha
Hatred does not cease in this world by hating, but by not hating this is an eternal truth.
Gautama Buddha
