Gautama Buddha

Gautama Buddha
When you like a flower, you just pluck it. But when you love a flower, you water it daily.
Gautama Buddha

Gautama Buddha

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
Stay centered, do not overstretch. Extend from your center, return to your center.
Gautama Buddha
O seeker! Rely on nothing until you want nothing.
Gautama Buddha
No one can escape death and unhappiness. If people expect only happiness in life, they will be disappointed.
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
The grudge you hold on to is like a hot coal that you intend to throw at someone, only you're the one who gets burned.
Gautama Buddha
